The growth of DeFi in the $TON ecosystem is less and less dependent on the emergence of individual high-profile projects. The ecosystem is increasingly influenced by connections between services. When protocols cease to exist in isolation and begin to exchange functionality, the network develops faster and becomes more stable.

Integrations allow products to avoid duplicating the same work. One service can focus on liquidity, another on user experience, and a third on wallet infrastructure or onboarding. As a result, users get full-fledged tools without having to switch between dozens of platforms. For developers, this means the ability to launch products much faster and use ready-made technical solutions.

In this model, STONfi acts as one of the key nodes of interaction within $TON . Through integrations with external services, wallets, and applications, the exchange is gradually turning into an exchange layer that can be used by different products without the need to create their own swap mechanics. A huge number of integrations have already been launched with the STONfi exchange, for example, with GasPump or the very recent integration with Tonation.

The more projects connect to each other, the stronger the entire ecosystem becomes. Integrations do not form separate products, but a unified digital environment where users interact with DeFi without even noticing it, and the development of the network is accelerated by the shared infrastructure.
