Outlook for the TON Blockchain
In 2020, Telegram, a popular messaging app, discontinued its involvement with the TON blockchain due to legal disputes with the US SEC.
Subsequently, the TON community took over the blockchain and began working on its development independently, without Telegram’s direct participation.
Since then, the TON blockchain has continued to experience significant growth, becoming one of the few blockchains to onboard one million users in a single day.
The arrest of Telegram’s founder Pavel Durov in August 2024 further solidified unity within the TON community.
Presently, the TON blockchain is witnessing significant growth across all metrics, including active addresses. Much of the increased trading volume and user adoption on TON can be attributed to various decentralized platforms like those mentioned above.
