The accelerator, according to Triangle’s website, will provide support and mentorship to founders and builders looking to build Web3 apps on Telegram and TON.

A wide range of projects will be supported by Triangle, but the accelerator will give priority to apps that are "building infrastructure for TON, enhancing UX for TON Ecosystem, bringing liquidity to TON and Telegram Ecosystem, accelerating the Telegram mini apps ecosystem" or assisting consumers in making the transition from Web2 to Web3.

Triangle’s accelerator program will have builders and founders spending six weeks “with various mentor sessions”, culminating in a demo day where builders can present their projects and possibly receive funding. Applications for the accelerator will close on August 10.

According to a post on X, projects chosen to participate in the accelerator will receive a range of support, including help with fundraising, technical support and access to mentoring from Web3 leaders:

"Notcoin founder Sasha Plotkinov, Sign CEO Xin Yan, 1inch co-founder Anton Bukov, and many more Web3 leaders will be mentoring the builders throughout the program. The goal is to bring hundreds of millions of users to Web3 through Telegram."

What Is TON?

TON stands for The Open Network (previously Telegram Open Network) — it’s a blockchain that was initially launched in 2018 by the Russia-based messaging app, Telegram.

However, Telegram abandoned the project in 2021 after a legal tussle with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) found the $TON token was likely a security.

TON now claims to operate completely independently of Telegram, with no apparent input at all from Telegram executives, although the Telegram CEO Pavel Durov has publicly endorsed the project.

Despite being independent from Telegram nowadays, TON continues to leverage the messaging app to create dApps built on the network. For example, Notcoin, while being built on TON, is actually played within Telegram.
