TON’s User Boom: Outclassing Ghost Chains Like Cardano

[aima55]

Ton continues to attract investors as it is rapidly expanding with $729M USDT in just 4 months since its integration into Telegram. Its growth has been supported by an expanding user base, particularly through Telegram's implementation of features like mini-apps and tokenized gaming integrations. It also secured investment from Bitget and foresight ventures https://www.theblock.co/post/316975/bitget-foresight-ventures-invest-30-million-in-ton-blockchain?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social. My gut feeling is this chain will be the next to make a lot of people angry because of the missed opportunities.

Cardano had been an overhypped old and obsolete chain. For any projects to succeed, they should be introduced with or go for private sale after proper development, strategy and roadmap. When you are selling coins and saying you are developing for a whole decade, you'd be left behind. Cardano do have a working chain and dapps over it but at the moment, they are not as popular for various reason.
Meanwhile TON was ready to host dapps when it launched. Many people predicted it could be the next Solana and even though the price has not increased significantly, its already a major utility coin.

Telegram is amazing for several reasons. I personally like to use it for my music with no commercials or BS, and I also keep up with a small number of channels I am interested in. For TON, to keep growing, at some point, they need much higher quality projects than paid to tap! That junk is doomed to fail and will hopefully be replaced by much better efforts.

Considering that binance keep on listing any TON project in existence it kinda gives me the impression that there might be something big going on in the ton ecosystem.

Catizen and Hamster Kombat being listed in binance within short amount of time and both of them are the same kind of project in the same ecosystem means the whole ton blockchain might be having something special going on. moreover the trading volume is always high with these TON coin because it's currently the hype and it works wonder for an exchange that seeks huge trading volume and inflow of new users, of course the other old chain like cardano which never truly have something going on in the blockchain will be overshadowed because honestly it's not fair comparison, cardano is just remnant of the past.

First of all TON developer doenst really need cash since back then Telegram support the development of TON unlike the other and after that Ton gaining popularity because the telegram itself that already have million of user maybe billion right now.

After a long story short ton became more popular when the famous game NOTCoin joined the space and from there the number of active users kept up USDT in the ton is reaching 1B

The number is below Solana 

While Cardano is good but it lost its popularity since crypto is full of competition Layer 2 alone is eating up all the space right now

Ton was not on the radar of many investors but it is now, but they are adamant because of Pavel Durov's issue because Telegram is still very much attached to the Durov's even though they left their stakes on their chain.
They want to read more positive news before they become comfortable investing on TON.

It also secured investment from Bitget and foresight ventures https://www.theblock.co/post/316975/bitget-foresight-ventures-invest-30-million-in-ton-blockchain?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social.

So much depends on the success of projects created on the Telegram platform, if the majority of these become successful, it will create positive feedback for Ton chain, making them competitive in the industry, and I agree that Ton could be the next big thing in the chain industry, and now is the best time to acquire more of it.

I agree with your point that they need more quality project. Maybe a gamefi on ton chain or Defi, liquidity mining..but it's a good start though. But this $30m investments by foresight X bitget is a good step..hopefully they improve their ecosystem with it and integrate quality features that'll drive mass adoption..

TON blockchain still need cash, just recently they raised $30M from bitget to accelerate their growth.



moreover many of projects inside TON ecosystem pretty much also getting some big fundraising, TON is still at its early phase and there's so many untapped potential that can be a leverage to get massive funding and further boost their ecosystem through incentives.

moreover I expect TON blockchain to still doing some big development on overcoming their scalability issue that recently froze their blockchain because massive on chain interaction caused by dogs airdrop.

[pooya87]

The only reason why TON network has gotten some hype attracted to it is because of the Telegram itself and of course the creator of it Nikolai Durov who has been in the headlines lately making a lot of noise when he got arrested for refusing to cooperated with the Israeli terrorist to censor any post that shows their genocide in Gaza.
These things don't last that long though, after a couple of months they usually fade away specially if another token platform starts being hyped up.

To be honest I still didn't understand with recent funding I mean Ton blockchain already live for a years right now and they still accept investors for what return right? Does the ton team give their ton token with a lower price

I did double check here https://cryptorank.io/ico/toncoin



because also recently the ton foundation creating Ton ventures https://tonventures.io/#portfolio

This is my opinion maybe the recent funding used by ton to fuel their ecosystem through Ton ventures

Beating out ADA isn't really that shocking, but TON shouldn't really be feeling like it is a lasting thing that they have, it is going to end up with a drop in value as well and it won't be all that easy to replicate that neither. I think we should be seeing this getting a different approach and I feel like the best thing to do would be just focusing on what we can do, and it wouldn't really be that crazy to handle it neither, we should be considering this as something that is taking a bit of time and eventually it will happen.

I believe that we can't see something changing but it could be something that will hurt TON investors as well if you keep thinking that it will ben great, because we know that it will not be all that great at all and the price will eventually drop when this hype ends.

TON chain was hyped mostly by mini-apps and tap to earns, I don't see Durov as the main contributor here, though what you described really made everyone pumped up for the TON to go down in price.
We will see how TON chain will feel itself in the future, in a year or so. After mini-apps era will fade away.

Yes, it is true that TON is widely used by mini app games on Telegram and so far there have been some surprising successes from the airdrop project such as dogs and others, but what I see now is that the price of TON coins is falling and I think that is an opportunity to own it

Why am I seeing TON posts in most places I turn to because of the investment they got from Foresight and the crypto exchange.....? This has been what we all know as the expansion plan for adoption, I actually like the concept and I am happy for TON team over the collaboration I do hope and trust that they will build to be very big, at least shoot for the position of BNB and if tough, they could overtake the Cardano ecosystem, because they have been able to take over the trend from Solana memes which I though were strong enough to be like this, but from observation, what has been giving the TON ecosystem a hedge over other tokens is the community using telegram and how easy it is to access, which is what SOL blockchain don't have at the moment, or what do you think?

I believe that TON is not improving or at least innovating fast enough, it would lose its position if it keeps trusting these telegram projects will be the ones that will make it go higher, I think it is not a smart move and shouldn't be really the way we should go. I think the best way to move forward will be just focusing on what TON could do next and what other type of projects that it could get.

If it can do something else, like add in another feature, get some more hype then it would definitely be great, but if it doesn't then there is nothing that we can do, it will not be all that simple at all. We need to focus on something that is getting to a point where it will not be simple enough and we will end up with some troubles for sure.

Yep, only time will tell if it was worth it.
But TON won't die down anytime soon, in my opinion.
A good investment to get while the price is good.

TON is making it big because it already has a very large audience.
Releasing the TON network attracted many users since it was launched by Telegram or their native app itself.
There was no trust issue in this case and hence it got massive audience welcoming the new chain.
On top of that the mini apps were something unique which we haven't seen yet and so it's a trend these days.
But trends fade away and so will the mini apps and if TON doesn't get something new then it will go down just as other coins.

[sana54210]

Having some high hopes about something that is hyped is a risky business like mentioned, I think TON is something that looks like the new big thing, and I believe that it will continue to do this for a while. The benefit for TON right now is that we are on verge of the bull run, halving happened so four year cycle says that we are soon going to start going up.

So, TON did go up before the bull run and will go up after the bull run starts as well and it will be very high and we should not really be expecting anything lower from it neither. It should be doing fine and we are going to see this growing to a level where it will be quite that bad. I think until the bull run ends, TON will keep growing and making money for the investors.

The age of TON is still relatively new in my opinion, and the collaboration with Telegram is also not long, but they are already in the top 10 coinmarketcap, this is a very high success, where the project has a lot of interest because it has a very large user base on Telegram, and what is interesting is how they will develop again in the future, after tap to earn and others are building from web2 Apps to Dapps and other web3 as social media networking technology increases.

This trend will not fade away if the current projects continue to pay their participants on miniapps properly then there will be more users and more ecosystems built, the network traffic will be very heavy in the future with 900 million monthly active users, this also gives a reason why meme projects on the TON network can be listed on many major exchanges such as Binance, bybit, OKX and others because the TON ecosystem has many users.

My personal view if we want to invest in this project is very potential for the bullrun season now, because they are indeed at the right momentum, then I have enough reasons why TON did not move too high when Bitcoin started to bounce back, the basic reason is their Telegram CEO is still in trouble, and after Durov is out I think TON and its ecosystem will rise and lead the altseason.

I believe TON won't disappoint me. Personally, I find the projects really worth investing in, especially as the market recovers and we head into a bull run. TON will keep growing, and I'm very excited about the TON ecosystem. I think it could break all records soon, and good thing it's already attracting many investors. I hope everyone can double, triple, or even make more money soon.
so, this is a great chance for anyone to buy in.
