Pavel Durov says Telegram is near profitability compared to rival Twitter and Snap.
The TON blockchain has always been proof-of-stake, while the mining of toncoin began “spontaneously and randomly” in 2020, according to the TON Foundation.
Telegram already supports in-app purchases of Bitcoin and Toncoin (TON), users can send and receive TON within the app, or buy Bitcoin through the “@wallet” bot function.
Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Republic of the Congo announced plans to adopt the TON blockchain amid the TONcoin Fund launch.
