Following the announcement, Toncoin surged 36 percent in a single day. The market is repricing TON as a Telegram-led ecosystem rather than a foundation-independent blockchain.

This change may signal Telegram committing more resources to its native blockchain project. TON has a massive base of Telegram users as a potential onboarding channel, and market expectations for its future growth are rising.
