If 2026 has taught me anything so far, it’s that "passive income" isn't just a buzzword anymore—it’s a survival strategy. While most people are busy chasing the next 100x memecoin phantom, I’ve been quietly watching the TVL on STON.fi hit new heights.

Today, I took a hard look at the active pools to see which ones are actually worth the "opportunity cost" of locking up my liquidity.

1. FRT/$TON

  • This is for the ForTON loyalists. FRT is all about sustainable growth within their specific ecosystem.

  • The Numbers: 2,900 TON + 75 FRT.

  • The Catch: There is a 30-day LP lock-up.

  • A 30-day lock in crypto can feel like an eternity, especially with TON’s current price action hovering around that $1.60 resistance. However, if you’re a long-term believer in the ForTON expansion, this is a solid way to accumulate "blue-chip" TON alongside FRT. You’ve got until February 1 to jump in.

2. JETTON/$USDt & JETTON/TON

  • JetTon Games is a beast in the TON GameFi space. These pools are for the active traders who don’t mind a bit of "degen" energy but want a safety net.

  • The Numbers: A massive 32,000 JETTON pool for either pair.

  • The Catch: Short 15-day lock-up.

  • I personally prefer the JETTON/USDt pair here. Why? Because it limits my exposure. By pairing with a stablecoin, I’m only sweating the JETTON price action. The 15-day lock is the "sweet spot"—long enough to earn, short enough to exit if the market goes sideways. You’ve only got until January 31, so the clock is ticking on this one.

3. STON/USDt

  • This is the "Old Reliable." STON is the backbone of the protocol, and this farm is the definition of "set it and forget it."

  • The Numbers: 10,000 STON monthly.

  • The Best Part: No LP lock-up.

  • This is where I keep my "emergency liquidity." Because there’s no lock-up, I love the flexibility it brings. The rewards are consistent, and as STON.fi continues to dominate ~70% of TON's swap volume, holding the native token feels like betting on the house. Also, the pool runs an Impermanent Loss Protection for its users.
