Company Description
TON Strategy Company (Nasdaq: TONX) is a digital asset treasury and Web3 ecosystem company focused on Toncoin ($TON), the native cryptocurrency of The Open Network (TON). According to the company’s public disclosures, TON is a public Layer-1 blockchain designed to integrate directly with Telegram, a global messaging platform with more than one billion monthly active users. TON Strategy Company’s stated mission is to accumulate and hold $TON for long-term investment, stake $TON to participate in network economics, and support the development of a tokenized economy inside Telegram.
The company describes itself as a digital asset treasury vehicle dedicated to $TON. It acquires Toncoin through capital raising transactions, open market purchases, and staking rewards. TON Strategy Company intends to hold $TON over a long horizon and stake a significant portion of its holdings to help support the TON network and generate recurring on-chain rewards. Management commentary in company press releases emphasizes a focus on disciplined capital allocation, permanent balance-sheet capital, and participation in the TON ecosystem through validator operations and staking activities.
TON Strategy Company is incorporated in Nevada and trades on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol TONX. The company rebranded from Verb Technology Company Inc. and began trading as TONX on September 2, 2025, following its adoption of a TON-focused treasury strategy and completion of a large private placement. Public filings describe TON Strategy Company as the first publicly traded treasury vehicle dedicated to Toncoin, and as a listed digital asset treasury company that reports under U.S. public company standards.
Business model and TON-focused strategy
Based on its public statements, TON Strategy Company’s core business model centers on the accumulation and long-term holding of Toncoin. The company deploys proceeds from capital raising activity to acquire $TON, stakes a substantial portion of those holdings, and recognizes staking rewards as on-chain income. Press releases describe the company’s approach as combining accumulation of $TON, staking to earn yield, and a capital allocation framework that can include share repurchases when management believes the stock trades at a discount to measures such as treasury asset value or net asset value per share.
The company has disclosed that it initiated a TON Treasury Strategy in August 2025, using proceeds from a private placement to acquire Toncoin and begin staking operations on The Open Network. It has also reported that a large share of its $TON reserves has been staked, with the goal of generating recurring on-chain revenues that can help fund share repurchases and contribute to long-term value per share. Management commentary characterizes this as a flywheel that combines permanent capital, staking income, and buybacks.
TON Strategy Company positions itself as a participant in the TON ecosystem by running validator operations, engaging in staking governance, and holding Toncoin as a primary treasury reserve asset. Public communications describe the company’s role as providing transparent, regulated access to $TON through institutional-grade custody, validator operations, staking governance, and public company reporting standards.
Relationship to The Open Network and Telegram
Company materials emphasize that $TON is the native token of The Open Network, a high-throughput Layer-1 blockchain integrated with Telegram. According to TON Strategy Company’s disclosures, TON provides the rails for payments, digital property, stablecoins, and decentralized mini applications inside the Telegram messaging ecosystem. The company highlights that Telegram users can transact, earn, save, and hold digital assets through mini apps, built-in wallets, and services that run on TON.
TON Strategy Company’s investment thesis, as described in its press releases and Chairman’s Message, is based on the integration of TON with Telegram’s large user base and the resulting potential for real-world usage. The company notes that $TON powers wallets, payments, and applications across Telegram, and that developers are building apps, services, and games that leverage this distribution. Within this context, TON Strategy Company seeks to act as a long-term holder and infrastructure participant in the TON ecosystem.
Legacy business units
In addition to its digital asset treasury activities, TON Strategy Company reports that it continues to operate legacy business units that pre-date its TON-focused strategy. These include MARKET.live, described as a multi-vendor livestream shopping platform, and LyveCom, described as an AI-powered social commerce business that enables brands and merchants to deliver omnichannel livestream shopping experiences across websites, apps, and social platforms. The company has also referenced Go Fund Yourself as a segment in earlier descriptions and financial disclosures.
Public filings and press releases indicate that these legacy ecommerce and social commerce operations remain part of the company’s consolidated results, though the company has also disclosed efforts to dissolve or divest certain non-core ecommerce assets. Revenue line items in financial statements include contributions from MARKET.live, Go Fund Yourself, and TON-related activities.
Corporate governance and regulatory status
TON Strategy Company is a U.S. public company subject to Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements. It files periodic reports, proxy statements, and current reports on Form 8-K. The company has disclosed that it operates under a governance framework intended to provide transparent, regulated access to Toncoin through institutional custody, validator operations, staking governance, and public company reporting standards.
In 2025, the company received correspondence from Nasdaq related to shareholder approval requirements under Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(a) and 5635(b) in connection with a private placement and a Toncoin purchase agreement. Nasdaq staff ultimately issued a Letter of Reprimand, determining that while there were failures to comply with the rules, the failures did not appear to be the result of a deliberate intent to avoid compliance. The company has reported that its shares remain listed on Nasdaq and that it accepted the staff’s determination.
The company holds an annual meeting of stockholders and solicits proxies through a definitive proxy statement. Matters submitted to stockholders have included the election of directors, advisory votes on executive compensation and the frequency of such votes, and ratification of the independent registered public accounting firm.
Capital allocation and share repurchase program
TON Strategy Company’s public communications describe a capital allocation approach that links its Toncoin holdings, staking income, and equity capital structure. The board of directors has authorized a stock repurchase program allowing the company to repurchase up to a specified dollar amount of its common stock. The company has appointed a financial services firm as a non-exclusive buyback agent to facilitate repurchases under this program.
Management commentary explains that the company may consider issuing stock to acquire additional Toncoin when the stock trades at a premium to measures such as net asset value per share, and may consider repurchasing shares when the stock trades at a discount to those measures. Staking income from $TON holdings is described as a potential source of cash flows to support ongoing share repurchases, subject to market conditions and other factors.
Leadership and organizational focus
TON Strategy Company has publicly identified its leadership team and governance structure in press releases and SEC filings. The company has noted that its management team combines public market governance experience, institutional investment management backgrounds, and crypto-native operating experience. It has also highlighted the appointment of senior officers in legal and accounting roles, and the presence of an Executive Chairman who has articulated the company’s strategy in a Chairman’s Message and media appearances.
According to company statements, TON Strategy Company aims to build what it describes as a premier public company focused on the $TON ecosystem. Its stated goals include steadily expanding its Toncoin holdings, generating staking revenues, exploring the development of proprietary staking infrastructure, and supporting the growth and security of tokenized networks built on The Open Network.
