The TON Foundation is not joking — they have hired Nikola Plekaas, former head of #Visa , as the new Vice President of Payments. Now $TON has someone who knows how to juggle cards and crypto at the same time! 🌀💰
Plekaas is tasked with building a global payment machine for over 1 billion Telegram users. His mission is to bring together banks, regulators, blockchain, and of course, billions of wallets 😎
At Visa, he was already dealing with fiat and digital currencies, so now he is ready to transfer all his skills to TON — just like a boss in the final level of a fintech game 🎮📲
TON puts payments at the forefront — and it's not just words. CEO Max Crown stated that Plekaas is exactly the person who will help the network shoot to global prominence.
And we sit here, waiting — when will these crypto payments finally replace a trip to the bank? 😅💸
