Telegram has conducted the world’s largest initial coin offering back in early 2018, netting a whopping 1.7B from a batch of accredited investors. TON Blockchain is supposed to be launch by Oct. 31. Otherwise, it will have to refund its investors.
Telegram has developed a wallet for its Gram cryptocurrency. Currently, the wallet is available in the alpha version of the Telegram messenger for iOS and functions in the TON testnet.
Mike Novogratz said that despite Telegram approached him for the TON’s private token sale participation, he refused them multiple time due to his early skepticism about the project.
Telegram’s blockchain project, TON, has entered the last preparation stage before going live. The code for running a blockchain node was released on the test network portal late Friday.
