Pavel Durov - #TONUSDT owner

I'm turning 41, but I don't feel like celebrating.

Our generation is running out of time to save the free Internet that our parents built for us.

What was once the promise of free exchange of information is becoming the ultimate tool of control.

Previously free countries are introducing dystopian measures such as digital IDs (UK), online age verifications (Australia) and mass scanning of private messages (EU).

Germany persecutes anyone who dares to criticize officials on the Internet. The UK is jailing thousands for their tweets. France criminally investigates technology leaders who defend freedom and privacy.

A dark, dystopian world is quickly approaching — while we are asleep. Our generation risks going down in history as the last one that had freedoms — and allowed them to be taken away.

We have been fed a lie.
We have been led to believe that the greatest struggle of our generation is to destroy everything our ancestors left us: tradition, privacy, sovereignty, the free market and freedom of expression.

By betraying the legacy of our ancestors, we have set ourselves on a path toward self-destruction — moral, intellectual, economic and, ultimately, biological.

So no, I'm not celebrating today. I'm running out of time. We are running out of time.

🏛️ The Infrastructure Institutions Need to Succeed

Institutions are moving into blockchain, but what will it take for them to succeed? With 86% of investors already exposed or planning allocations in 2025, the question isn’t if they’ll adopt blockchain, but how they’ll do it safely and at scale.

▪️Security & Control: Advanced key management, multi-user permissions, and governance-based access are essential.
▪️Compliance: KYC, AML, and automated reporting are requirements for regulated institutions.
▪️User Experience: Business-focused interfaces and simple onboarding are key adoption drivers.
▪️Integration: Enterprise-grade APIs must connect with ERP, treasury, and compliance tools.
▪️Performance: TON’s 104K+ TPS and 3–5s finality meet institutional transaction needs.

TON’s connection with Telegram’s +1B-user ecosystem could be the bridge between everyday usability and enterprise scale. 

Backed by Telegram’s +1B users, a $400 million treasury, and Crypto.com’s custody support, TON’s institutional narrative is developing.

$BTC 📊💵The Rise of Cryptocurrencies as Real-World Assets

[RWA Report: The Rise of Cryptocurrencies as Real World Assets], OctoQuant releases the 2024 RWA Report. According to the report, the majority of real-world assets (RWAs) are now stablecoins pegged to the U.S. dollar. The top three USD stablecoins alone hold 95% of the market share, with Tether (USDT) having a market capitalization of $96.1 billion, USDC (USDC) having a market capitalization of $26.8 billion, and Dai (DAI) having a market capitalization of $4.9 billion.
USDT continues to dominate with a market share of 71.4%. Meanwhile, after a brief de-pegging during the US banking crisis in March 2023, USDC's market share plummeted and has yet to recover.
Stabilized assets other than USD-pegged stablecoins account for only 1% of the market. These assets include other fiat currencies such as the Euro Tether (EURT), Offshore Chinese Yuan Tether (CNHT), Mexican Peso Tether (MXNT), Euro to US Dollar (EURC), StasisEuro (EURS), and Lira (TRYB).
The market capitalization of stabilized assets soared from $5.2 billion in early 2020 to a peak of $150.1 billion in March 2022, before gradually declining throughout the bear market. However, its market capitalization grew by 4.9% in 2024, from $128.2 billion at the beginning of the year to $134.6 billion on February 1st.

🖥🔔According to OctoQuant Data Research Center:
Cryptocurrencies are gradually becoming the world's dominant currencies, according to insiders who have learned that at least two of Russia's top metals producers have begun using Tether Holdings' stablecoin and a number of other cryptocurrencies to settle some of their cross-border transactions with suppliers. Executives at the company said they declined to be identified because the information isn't public. In some cases, settlements are done through Hong Kong.
Billy Wells, a digital currency expert and founder of Octo, said that cross-border settlements via cryptocurrencies, particularly stablecoins pegged to the U.S. dollar, are a relatively common practice in countries facing dollar liquidity problems and capital controls, and not only in the commodities sector.
