Telegram Announces Cryptocurrency for 2018! (TON)steemCreated with Sketch.

The online-communication giant Telegram, home to 180 million users has announced that they will be entering the cryptocurrency game with their own 'Telegram Open Network' (TON) in 2018 - which every Telegram user will automatically have.

Telegram claims that their cryptocurrency will be 'fast', 'scalable' and 'user-friendly'. With a multi-blockchain architecture, TON splits itself in two when a single blockchain gets too big. While increasing capacity, all TON blockchains are also able to exchange data among themselves using a smart routing system which the company is naming 'hypercube routing'. Using direct channels, TON also gets rid of transaction times entirely by using off-chain transactions, (someone tell that to Bitcoin). Instead of using hash for confirmations, TON uses smart contracts to 'maximize efficiency'.

Could this be the future top ICO of 2018? Telegram says that every user of their communication app will get their own TON wallet's, automatically making TON the 'highest adopted cryptocurrency' - as soon as it launches. Should this be a considerable future investment? Will this actually help people adopt the usage of cryptocurrencies - perhaps even finding a place for micro-transactions among friends - ?

Can you share the source of the information so we can verify it's authenticity? Thank's ;)

Very interesting. Could be something to consider, but we'll have to see. Do you have a link for this?

Is there a website for the ICO ?

there aren't any official news just rumors ! watchout from scams

This would be a huge boon to the crypto space. This would help with adoption. I will be looking into this further for sure!

If that's really going to happen then this token will overtake also BTC!

we will see ! until now it's still not confirmed that they are doing an ico,just rumors !

can someone tell me if this ICO is legit ?
