REP Summer '25 Recap
June, July and August were the months of growth — in partnerships, in users, in functionality, and in meaning.
From major product upgrades to new chats, from deeper integration into Telegram-native DeFi to reputation mechanics woven into everyday conversations. REP has evolved far beyond a leaderboard.
Let’s look back at everything that happened.
June
Torch and TeFi Alliance Partnership
REP partnered up with Torch to support the Alliance - and to help bringing adoption to tgUSD the first Telegram Native yield-bearing stablecoin. +REP for participation!
Top REP users invited to the TAC Genesis mint.
Top 20,000 TON users by REP were invited to participate in the Phase 2 of TAC genesis SBT launch — together with other OG Web3 communities like Pudgy Penguins, Bored Apes, Punks and other crypto legends.
REP Guide to Telegram Gifts released
Almost three months have passed since we published our comprehensive research on one of the most hyped topics in TON — and it’s still highly relevant!
Whether you’re a TON OG or a newcomer to the ecosystem, you’ll find plenty of valuable insights and information. Check it out!
+REP for Onchain Gifts
Since June 18, we’ve included on-chain gift data in calculating your REP — and introduced unique achievements along the way. Spoiler alert: on-chain gifts are just the beginning!
July
REP AMA with REP's Head of Growth
We opened the month with a live text AMA featuring Danny, REP’s Head of Growth, in the TON 0.5% chat. The session helped clarify the bigger picture behind REP — and preview what’s coming next.
The conversation explored REP’s core idea: a cross-platform reputation layer for Web3 that reflects not just onchain data, but social context and relationships. Unlike traditional scores or rankings, REP aims to be portable across ecosystems — so that your reputation in TON can unlock access and benefits elsewhere.
The AMA also touched on REP’s use cases: both B2C (personal identity, curation, social graphs) and B2B, helping projects identify high-quality users with verifiable onchain and social impact. Builders, power users, influencers — REP makes them easier to discover.
We also introduced a new feature in REP chats: ➕/➖ emoji reactions, which allow users to signal trust or disagreement. These reactions affect Social REP inside the chat and will soon sync with your broader onchain reputation — turning chats into meaningful social filters.
Finally, Danny shared a glimpse of the roadmap: the new website is coming soon, along with real-time DeFi and social data achievements, more integrations, and ongoing refinement of the leaderboards — which, as Danny noted, are evolving from a REP ranking into a reflection of the TON ecosystem itself.
REP stage two released
The biggest update since March. REP's mini-app became a full-fledged identity layer: with one interface, four leaderboards, and your full persona in one place.
- New Home Screen: Quick access to Profile, Achievements, Leaderboards, and Social REP
- Profile 2.0: Telegram avatar, rank, REP, referrals, achievements, leaderboard positions
- Achievements: Claim, collect, and share them. With more on the way
- 4 Leaderboards: Overall, Onchain, Social, and Gifts: for a multidimensional look at reputation
- Social REP leaderboard: A new screen to grow and track your graph — and your influence
It wasn’t just a UI update. It was the beginning of REP becoming the layer where identity, trust, and reputation converge.
REP: Gifts chat opens
We launched one more cool REP chat, which is focused on Telegram Gifts.
This is more than a discussion group. It’s a network of traders, collectors, and early adopters whose wallets already carry the signal of participation. Have an onchain gift? You’re in.
Join the chat: REP: Gifts
REP × Bidask partnership
Another DeFi protocol joins the REP ecosystem.
Bidask is a CLMM-based DEX optimized for fast, scalable, and intuitive swaps on TON. We’re integrating with Bidask to track activity, reward meaningful interactions, and reflect DeFi participation in REP.
REP × tgBTC partnership
Bitcoin comes to TON. And REP comes with it. tgBTC, by Teleport, is the most accessible and decentralized Bitcoin bridge for the TON ecosystem. Now, your tgBTC activity contributes to your REP.
Bitcoin redefined trust with code. REP records it.
REP × TON Punks partnership
Before mini-apps, before DeFi, before even Gifts — there were TON Punks.
Now, Punk culture meets REP through District Clash, a GameFi competition where REP ranks determine your rewards.
REP × Euler partnership
Euler v2 — the next-gen modular lending protocol — is now fully live in Telegram viaTAC.
And REP is tracking your activity.
- Borrow and lend in seconds (TAC, TON, USDT, BTC, ETH)
- 4.8M TAC + $96k rEUL in early-user rewards
- REP integration underway — your DeFi actions will boost your REP
Telegram-native DeFi meets Telegram-native identity.
REP Profile = Your Onchain Persona
We’ve upgraded REP profiles to reflect who you really are in the network.
Think of your REP profile screen as if it was a transcript of your actions:
Everything that defines your reputation, identity, achievements — and visible in one place.
- Total REP
- Positions across all 4 leaderboards
- Number of achievements and top 3 achievements by REP earned
- Your network size
AUGUST
REP for TAC SBT holders
The launch of TAC was one of the summer’s most significant events for the TON ecosystem, and we’re proud that our top REP users were invited to join the exclusive SBT mint alongside other leading projects and Web3 OG communities.
And, since early August, there is also an achievement for holding Trailblazer SBT! Also, a hint: there is more to come for REP-verified TAC SBT holders soon!
REP integration with Tonstakers, EVAA, FIVA, Tonco
REP has begun tracking key DeFi activities across leading TON protocols and rewarding users for valuable onchain participation. All actions are tracked in real time. No delays. Just reputation, earned onchain.
