Pantera Capital is very bullish on the TON blockchain, which powers Telegram, because of its large user base and bright future.
Regarding Pantera Capital’s sizable investment in Telegram’s The Open Network (TON) blockchain, Dan Morehead, the company’s co-founder and chief executive officer, made some noteworthy comments.
Morehead highlighted the promising trajectory offered by Telegram’s blockchain community, which has 930 million members, and described it as the biggest investment in the blockchain world. According to Coincu, Pantera Capital has reached a new milestone with its TON investment, demonstrating its dedication to fostering the TON ecosystem.
Pantera Capital and TON’s relationship reflects their common goal of making the Web3 ecosystem accessible to everybody. It followed a lengthy discussion between Morehead and Pavel Durov, inventor of the encrypted messaging program Telegram, who is well-known for promoting digital freedom and privacy. There will likely be a dramatic increase in the use of cryptocurrencies due to the popularity of Telegram, which has over 36 million monthly downloads as of January 2024.
Pantera Capital’s recent $1 billion fundraising for Pantera Fund V demonstrates its commitment to investing in public or liquid tokens, which is in line with its strategy. Diverse blockchain assets, such as startup stock and multi-stage tokens, are available to investors via this fund.
Pantera and TON’s partnership will help bridge the gap between the digital asset market and conventional financial institutions by developing groundbreaking breakthroughs in decentralized finance (DeFi).
In addition, the fact that Pantera Capital has invested in TON proves that Durov is serious about the concepts of minimum censorship and security that underpin TON. This collaboration has the potential to hasten TON’s embrace of blockchain technology, expanding its digital reach and usefulness. Pantera has shown its unwavering faith in the revolutionary power of blockchain technology by taking this step after successfully weathering the crypto winter of 2022.
