Over the past seven days, It has surged by 32%, and over the past month, it has seen an impressive 132% increase.

Toncoin’s (TON) Meteoric Rise
The Open Network was established in 2018 under the name Telegram Open Network by the popular messaging app Telegram. However, in 2020, Telegram decided to abandon the project due to regulatory issues raised by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Developers within the community have been actively expanding the network even in the absence of Telegram’s direct involvement. However, there has been a shift, and Telegram seems to be re-engaging with the network. This renewed involvement from Telegram could contribute to the network’s recent surge in growth and popularity.
Last autumn, Telegram launched a TON wallet for self-custody, indicating a step towards enhancing user control over their digital assets. In February, Telegram announced a novel approach to revenue sharing by committing to allocate half of its advertising revenue to channel owners, with payments exclusively in TON.
This move signified a strategic shift towards leveraging TON’s ecosystem to enhance user engagement and monetization. Furthermore, Telegram recently expanded TON’s utility by allowing advertisers to make payments using the cryptocurrency, further solidifying TON’s role within the Telegram ecosystem.
Cardano Flips from the Top 10
Cardano, a mainstay in the top 10 cryptocurrencies, has been pushed out by Toncoin’s impressive performance, with Dogecoin, USDC, and XRP now at risk of losing their positions. This development underscores the dynamic nature of the crypto assets market and highlights the intense competition among cryptocurrencies vying for the top spots.
