How long these regularity authorities will keep on controlling the crypto market and crypto projects.

The more you press them, the more they will boom ...

There are a bunch of threads created for this topic already, I think that we don't need more of it. Like this one;

Telegram (TON) project has been halted by SEC (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5192280.0)

Good news for such a unclear project,many details are keeping private to investors,including roadmap,funding raise,who is exactly behind project,...
And there already some futures GRAMS trading pair exist,but 'team' did not acknowledge the invest program involved.

It's necessary for SEC to protect investors before it become a scam.

if the crypto market as you say controlled, there would not be so much fraud in the projects and in the crypto world as a whole. and the that that verification telegrams project this all is nonsense. it would be better to look for those people who collect money and make ends meet

This is not good for the adoption and growth of crypto. Instead of supporting new technologies that give convenience to the people, the government by way of SEC is the one giving development and progress a hard time. This sucks! The Telegram project is not rejected by the public itself. It is not rejected by the investors themselves. The entire crypto community is behind it even. Why the SEC has to play the villain role again and again?

It really boils down if they are going to offer it to US customers, we all know that US SEC is really hard on their citizens investing on ICO or tokens as they deem it as securities and should fall under their jurisdiction. For Telegram, I think they can go and continue to go on with their GRAM as long as they going to restrict it and should be put on their ToS just to make it clear.

The American government always interferes with the SEC when it comes to cryptocurrency. Hopefully only took place while
the ban on the sale of these telegram tokens, as well as regulations regarding this could soon be resolved. In order to immediately
launch this token telegram, because this is one of the big events in my opinion.Telegram decided to plunge into the world of cryptocurrency
after facebook with its libra coin, actually good news for the development of the cryptocurrency world. Because can make the price of bitcoin
and altcoin go up, I am hope in the near future there is good news regarding this telegram token.

I think GRAM will continue even though the SEC has not yet given its approval. Telegram itself for developers and bounty hunters is very useful as a medium for brainstorming & asking questions. Therefore, the development of the telegram is inseparable from the world of crypto itself today. The SEC should take care of the bulging developers rather than good projects like this.

I don't know this is good news or bad for rejecting Gram token by Sec. But one thing is clear there are a lot of difficulties and reasons behind crypto regulations, Hope in near future Crypto will be major market after gold.
