On July 3, the developers of blockchain $TON (yes, the one that drives the whole Telegram movement) reported: $28.5 million was raised in Series A 💸. The leaders are Ribbit Capital and Pantera Capital, and these are guys with a serious track record.
😎 The twist is that the money came not through token sales (as is usually the case in crypto) but through classic equity. Venture capital, but with a blockchain vibe.
📱 What's next?
The money will go towards:
Western expansion 🌍
Licenses and legal compliance (sad, but necessary) 📄
Development of wallets, AI, and other Telegram conveniences 🤖
TOP is betting on a user-friendly chat interface and easy Toncoin transfers — no DeFi mazes and “figure it out yourself” buttons. It's simple: click, transfer, and go back to sending memes in the chat 🤳🔥
And yes, Telegram has already gathered over 15 million wallets and introduced viral projects like Notcoin($NOT ) and Hamster Kombat($HMSTR ) 🐹🎮
Now TOP wants crypto to be like a sticker: simple, fast, and understandable for everyone 💬💸
