The public network performance test, which is scheduled for Oct. 31 at 15:00 UTC, will demonstrate the reliability, scalability, and speed of The Open Network (TON) blockchain. 

TON Foundation will set up 256 servers for validator nodes and start a separate TON blockchain network for performance tests.?

The growth of TON’s user base has come alongside the expansion of TON validator nodes to 350, creating a more decentralized network, now spread over 25 separate nations.
