Tonstarter Assistant for TON

Want to get into a TON project before its token reaches an exchange? That is what launchpads are for. Tonstarter Assistant is the Telegram companion of Tonstarter, a platform that calls itself the first launchpad on TON. 🚀

In Telegram it works as a mini app and a point of contact with the platform. Two commands deal with referrals, and everything else happens inside the mini app.

What a launchpad does

A launchpad is a place where teams run a first sale of their tokens (often called an IDO) and regular buyers can join a project early.

Public reviews say Tonstarter helps projects launch on TON, raise funds and handle the technical side of a sale. For buyers, the appeal is a token at the starting price instead of the market price.

The first sale on the platform was reported to be the token of Fanzee, a Web3 gamification project. Some of the written material about Tonstarter is a few years old, so check current terms inside the app.

The two referral commands

The bot has two commands:

• /ref gives you your personal referral link.
• /my_refs lists the people you have invited.

If you invite friends, be straight with them. Explain what an IDO is and how risky it can be. Pitching it as easy money hurts both of you.

How token sales usually work

The flow is similar on most launchpads. The app shows the exact steps for Tonstarter, but in general it goes like this:

1. Wallet. You need a self-custody wallet on the TON network and a little Toncoin for the purchase and fees.
2. Connection. Open the mini app and connect the wallet through the standard confirmation window.
3. Conditions. Many sales ask for identity verification (KYC) or ownership of a specific token.
4. Participation. Pick an open sale, enter an amount and approve the transaction in your wallet.
5. Receiving tokens. Tokens are often released on a schedule (vesting) instead of all at once.

What the platform says about itself

Reviews mention a private club of angel and venture investors and a seed round. The current site describes Tonstarter as a regulated launchpad for token sales on TON, with identity checks, protection against multiple accounts and locked tokens released on a schedule.

The same site states that Tonstarter has no affiliation with the TON Foundation. The name sounds official, but the platform is independent. 🧭

Where the risk sits

Early-stage tokens are among the riskiest corners of crypto. The price after listing can fall below the sale price, and a team can fail to deliver what it promised.

• Loss of funds. Put in only an amount you can afford to lose.
• Vesting. While tokens are locked you cannot sell them, even if the price drops.
• Fake bots. Scammers copy launchpad names. Make sure you open the official app.
• Seed phrase. No genuine service asks for it. Never send it to anyone.

Checking a project before you buy

Read the project description, look at the team, the release schedule and the smart contract audit if one exists. Compare the share of tokens held by the team with the share offered in the sale.

If a project promises guaranteed profit, close the page. Nothing in token markets is guaranteed. 💡

Support and feedback

The bot profile says that urgent problems and feedback go to a separate support bot run by the platform. Do not post wallet details or screenshots with addresses in public chats until a verified representative has replied to you.

Your referral link belongs to you. Do not hand it to strangers or trade it for bonuses outside the app.
