STON.fi’s First Full DAO in TON Ecosystem Is Now Live

[PRESS RELEASE – Road Town, British Virgin Islands, December 2nd, 2025]

The DAO of STON.fi, the leading swap dApp and foundational DeFi protocol on The Open Network (TON), is being brought live as the first full decentralized autonomous organization within the TON ecosystem, giving users direct control over how the protocol evolves.

The DAO makes every staked STON token a voice in decision-making, allowing more than 5.6 million users to submit proposals, take part in discussions, and vote on what should be built next. STON is the native governance and utility token of the protocol. When users stake STON, they receive ARKENSTON, a non-transferable token representing voting power. The more STON staked and the longer the commitment, the stronger the voting influence — ensuring that decisions are driven by those most interested in the project’s long-term success.

It’s a practical step toward full decentralization — and a statement about how the TON DeFi ecosystem can grow responsibly and transparently.

STON.fi has grown into the largest DeFi protocol within TON ecosystem, processing over 29.8 million operations from 5.6 million wallets and more than $6.6 billion in total swap volume, representing the majority of DeFi activity on TON. As the first protocol in the ecosystem to launch a full DAO, STON.fi sees it as its responsibility to set high standards for decentralized governance. Having already built the liquidity rails of TON DeFi through Omniston and the swapping infrastructure with the STON.fi dApp, the DAO now adds the steering system that lets the community guide what comes next — turning decentralization from an idea into a working model where liquidity providers, developers, and users share both ownership and responsibility.
