After Telegram officially launched its self-custody wallet in the US, the cryptocurrency community has begun to pay special attention to TON. Although DeFi metrics are still modest, the price movements of TON are truly noteworthy.
Breakthrough after a slow start
In the past week, the price of TON has increased by nearly 10%, reversing the mid-month downtrend thanks to renewed buying interest. The price has surged from the support zone of $1.45-$1.50, approaching the $1.63 mark and surpassing the short-term resistance level.

Although this is not yet a breakout rally, current signals suggest potential for continued expansion in the near future.
Self-custody wallet on Telegram – A user experience revolution
The growth of TON coincides with Telegram’s launch of its self-custody wallet in the US, allowing users to send, trade, and store cryptocurrencies directly within the popular messaging app for the first time. This is a significant step in reducing barriers to blockchain technology adoption for mainstream users.

Great potential but still requires time to explode
Although TON’s price has risen due to positive developments, network activity remains relatively stable, with no signs of a major explosion. The total value locked (TVL) in DeFi on TON is currently around $85 million, still low compared to previous peaks, and large capital flows have not yet fully entered.

Platform activity is gradually strengthening, but liquidity still needs more time to truly accelerate and create significant breakthroughs.
