TON coin, the cryptocurrency linked to popular messaging app Telegram, is gaining significant ground in the market. With projections predicting its price could reach up to
$100 by 2026 and a significant
$400 million investment from venture capital firms, interest in the coin is steadily increasing. Tether's activity in the market, including its decision to boost reserves with a 27-tonne gold purchase, has indirectly fuelled TON's growing strength as Bitcoin underperforms.
Existing in Telegram's high-speed layer-1 blockchain, TON's potential is becoming increasingly evident as its value exceeded
$1 billion following a recent
$28.5 million raise. Subsequently, digital stockbroker Robinhood added TON to its U.S. crypto platform ahead of Coinbase, further solidifying its position in the market.
Despite fluctuations in TON's price, investors are keen on TON's potential to foster mass crypto adoption and create a 'financial super' app within Telegram. With foundations laid, the TON ecosystem accommodates a variety of activities from gambling to digital asset trading, even attracting former execs from Apple and Nike to its executive team.
However, this upward trajectory has been briefly interrupted by occasional price dips, due in part to rumours and market turmoil. The uncertainty surrounding TON's association with the controversial UAE golden visa program contributed to a market value decline. Resultantly, these subsequent 'bear' periods led by bouts of selling pressure somewhat undermine the coin's overall positive trajectory.
