🚀 Toncoin Surges After Telegram’s $300M Grok AI Power Move
Toncoin (TON) jumped over 13%, hitting $3.35, following a game-changing partnership between Telegram’s TON Foundation and Elon Musk’s xAI.
📈 The Catalyst:
Telegram is integrating Grok AI—developed by Musk’s xAI—into its platform. In return, Telegram receives $300M in a mix of cash, shares, and 50% of subscription revenue from the AI-enhanced chat service.
🔗 Key Developments:
• Former Visa exec Nikola Plecas joins TON Foundation as VP of Payments to scale TON’s global infrastructure.
• TON Foundation will repurchase Telegram’s 2021 bond debt, while Telegram seeks to raise $1.5B via new bonds backed by BlackRock, Mubadala, and Citadel.
• Over 1 billion users on Telegram drove $1.4B in 2024 revenue, with $540M profit.
📊 Price Action:
• TON currently trades at $3.35, facing resistance at the 200-period EMA ($3.45) on the 12-hour chart.
• A daily close above this level could fuel a breakout past $3.50 and signal a strong uptrend.
🧠 Strategy Note:
With Plecas leading payment infrastructure and Grok AI on deck, TON is positioning itself as a next-gen payments and messaging platform with deep AI integration.
