? Whales Mining Pool payouts bot
This is not about the development for TON, but this is the only channel i have about TON.

As many of you know, i sold Whales Corp, but there were outstanding debt of miners that didn't withdraw their coins until bot stopped working (more than half year after mining ended! why you didn't do this?). I had a 50% stake in the Whales and now i am launching a smart contract (written in ⚡️ Tact ) and telegram bot to pay my half for all debtors that had 5+ TON on their balance.

I also added 5% to each balance just like if you had it staked.

To withdraw your coins you need to use a bot @whales_payouts_bot and send your address that you have been using for mining.

Starting 31 July 2023, balances will start to slowly burn during next 200 days until 14 Feb 2024 when all balances would be zero making a holding fee of 0.5% of the original balance per day.

If you know someone that has outstanding balance on Whales Pool, share it with them.

Sources of a contract are on GitHub.

The story of Tact language: from idea to release

Why is Tact needed, how was it created and how did it get to its current stage, as told by members of Tact Software Foundation.

Distributed 301 920 TON (676 300 $).

The Open Nerwork is a community-driven project, each of us contributing to building a more decentralized and freer world.

TON Foundation team is glad to work together with strong developers from all over the world and invite new developers and teams to join this collective work.

Personal award by Anatoly Makosov
$100 000 from my own funds to the tonscan.org team.

Source code https://github.com/catchain/tonscan.

Many of us use tonscan.org explorer on a daily basis.

It works great, and in my opinion is an example of excellent UI / UX of TON explorer, while tonapi.io excelled significantly in the backend and indexing, and dton.io in statistics and some other features.

It is also worth noting that tonscan team were among the first to implement new TON releases (such as TON DNS or TON Nominators) and are ready to work together on some features.

I wish the tonscan team further develop the service and invent new approaches in blockchain user interfaces.
