🚨 "Freedom" or Shielding Criminals? Telegram's "FreeCriminals" Defense and the Double Squeeze
Dear investors, while The Open Network (TON) ecosystem and Telegram strive to grow through technical partnerships, a global ethical and legal crisis is escalating in the background. Today, Telegram has become a hub where hundreds of thousands of people worldwide are victimized by crypto scams, fake token distributions, and organized fraud networks.
​The most painful part is that despite the official complaints and cries of hundreds of thousands of victims, the platform hides behind arguments of "freedom of expression and privacy," essentially mounting a "FreeCriminals" defense. Here is the behind-the-scenes look at both these global grievances and the historic legal pressures coming from both the West and the East:
​🇫🇷 French Court: The 12-Count Heavy Indictment
​In the crisis that began in Paris in August 2024, although Pavel Durov's travel ban was lifted in November 2025, the criminal case continues in full force. The Paris Prosecutor's Office Cybercrime Unit (JUNALCO) has brought exactly 12 different official charges against Telegram's stance that shields fraudsters:
​Complicity in Illegal Transactions: Allowing the platform to become a "safe haven" for mass fraud, drug trafficking, and organized crime, and failing to moderate despite numerous complaints.​Refusal to Cooperate with Authorities: Failing to hand over the identities, wallet addresses, and data logs of the networks that defrauded hundreds of thousands of people to judicial authorities.​Money Laundering: Facilitating illicit fund movements carried out by criminal organizations through the ecosystem (and unmonitored transfer schemes).​Unlicensed Use of Cryptology (Encryption): Integrating hidden encryption tools that states cannot monitor into the platform without making the mandatory declarations required by French law.​Investor Note: Instead of backing down in the face of these heavy charges, Durov maintained his strict stance on not sharing user data (the very defense that leaves victims helpless), stating in April 2026 that "if necessary, they are ready to completely withdraw from the French market."​🇷🇺 The Russian Front: Terrorism and Blockade Crisis​Telegram's unregulated structure is shaking not only with fraud cases in the West but also with security crises in the East:​FSB's Terrorism Allegation (February 2026): The Russian Federal Security Service opened a new criminal case against Durov for "aiding and abetting terrorist activities," claiming that certain large-scale illegal actions were coordinated via Telegram.​Roskomnadzor Blockades (April 2026): The Russian digital oversight agency launched a massive wave of restrictions against Telegram's infrastructure and VPN networks to block uncontrolled traffic.🚨 OFFICIAL PROOF: Telegram Apps Center Serves as a Showcase for Scammers!Telegram's "FreeCriminals" policy, operated under the guise of "freedom," is definitively proven by the shared screenshot. Despite official complaints from hundreds of victims, the platform continues to provide a playground for criminals.The Official Approval Trap: On the main storefront of the verified, blue-check Telegram Apps Center, the Acidlabs (Boinkers) project is displayed as if it were a legitimate application.The Massive Heist: Utilizing this mask of corporate trust, these scammers have victimized hundreds of people, including myself. I lost $25,000 to this scheme!The Masterminds Behind the Setup: At the center of this organized ring that plunders investors' savings is the structure of Acidlabs (Boinkers) Roberto.This visual once again proves exactly how justified the French (JUNALCO) and Russian authorities are in launching cases against Pavel Durov for "complicity in illegal transactions." Never trust projects inside Telegram just because they look "approved"—protect your assets!​💡 Realistic Takeaway for Investor​As a crypto community, we advocate for decentralization and privacy; however, the right to privacy should not be an armor used by those who defraud hundreds of thousands of investors.
Reputation and FUD Risk: As Telegram’s indifferent "FreeCriminals" image grows in the face of organized crime and token scams, institutional capital inflows into the TON ecosystem could hit a standstill.​Harsh Regulatory Wave: As states lose their patience, we could see much more aggressive sanctions and delisting pressures on TON and its associated tokens (NOT, DOGS, HMSTR).​While chasing opportunities in the market, do not forget to factor these massive moral and legal risks carried by the platform into your portfolio management. Safe trading!

🚀 Pavel Durov’s $1.7 Billion Crypto Comeback? Toncoin recently surged nearly 20% after Pavel Durov revealed that the project would return to its original name: Gram. For many in the crypto community, this move brings back memories of one of the industry's most ambitious projects. Back in 2018, Telegram raised an incredible $1.7 billion to build Gram, a cryptocurrency designed to power payments directly within the messaging platform. The vision was simple but powerful: create a global digital payment system integrated into everyday communication. However, regulatory challenges in the United States forced Telegram to abandon the project in 2020. While Telegram stepped away, the technology lived on. The open-source code continued to be developed by the community under a new identity—Toncoin. Over the years, Telegram quietly expanded its blockchain ecosystem through wallets, creator rewards, digital payments, and mini-apps. Now, bringing back the Gram name signals a bigger vision. As Telegram continues its transformation into an all-in-one platform for payments, commerce, gaming, and digital services, Gram could become the financial backbone of that ecosystem once again. #Gram #Toncoin #TON #Telegram #Crypto #Blockchain #Web3 #PavelDurov

👑 The privacy czar: Durov's fortune, the super-validator of TON, and his army of DNA 👀👇 Pavel Durov decided that wearing black wasn't just a fashion statement; it was a declaration of war against global bureaucracy. Governments tried to bend him, but he responded by building an empire of a billion users. His net worth swings between $6.6 billion and $17 billion, a figure as volatile as the crypto market. So, what’s the king of Telegram holding? Only the best: a massive stash of Bitcoin (he bought 2,000 BTC back in 2013 for pennies) and millions in Toncoin. The true genius just exploded recently. In a master move, Durov announced that Telegram is taking over the TON Foundation and gaining total control of the TON blockchain, becoming its largest validator. The token skyrocketed over 85%. This isn't just an integration; it’s merging Telegram’s massive user base with a native Web3 economy, DeFi, contracts, and high-speed sharding. It’s an unstoppable ecosystem that no government can shut down. But Durov isn’t just filling the internet with encrypted channels; he’s serious about populating the planet. As a sperm donor, he has over 100 biological kids in twelve countries. He structured his fortune so that his heirs receive their share, ensuring his legacy isn’t just servers, but DNA.

🚨 "Freedom" or Shielding Criminals? Telegram's "FreeCriminals" Defense and the Double Squeeze
Dear investors, while The Open Network (TON) ecosystem and Telegram strive to grow through technical partnerships, a global ethical and legal crisis is escalating in the background. Today, Telegram has become a hub where hundreds of thousands of people worldwide are victimized by crypto scams, fake token distributions, and organized fraud networks.
​The most painful part is that despite the official complaints and cries of hundreds of thousands of victims, the platform hides behind arguments of "freedom of expression and privacy," essentially mounting a "FreeCriminals" defense. Here is the behind-the-scenes look at both these global grievances and the historic legal pressures coming from both the West and the East:
​🇫🇷 French Court: The 12-Count Heavy Indictment
​In the crisis that began in Paris in August 2024, although Pavel Durov's travel ban was lifted in November 2025, the criminal case continues in full force. The Paris Prosecutor's Office Cybercrime Unit (JUNALCO) has brought exactly 12 different official charges against Telegram's stance that shields fraudsters:
​Complicity in Illegal Transactions: Allowing the platform to become a "safe haven" for mass fraud, drug trafficking, and organized crime, and failing to moderate despite numerous complaints.​Refusal to Cooperate with Authorities: Failing to hand over the identities, wallet addresses, and data logs of the networks that defrauded hundreds of thousands of people to judicial authorities.​Money Laundering: Facilitating illicit fund movements carried out by criminal organizations through the ecosystem (and unmonitored transfer schemes).​Unlicensed Use of Cryptology (Encryption): Integrating hidden encryption tools that states cannot monitor into the platform without making the mandatory declarations required by French law.​Investor Note: Instead of backing down in the face of these heavy charges, Durov maintained his strict stance on not sharing user data (the very defense that leaves victims helpless), stating in April 2026 that "if necessary, they are ready to completely withdraw from the French market."​🇷🇺 The Russian Front: Terrorism and Blockade Crisis​Telegram's unregulated structure is shaking not only with fraud cases in the West but also with security crises in the East:​FSB's Terrorism Allegation (February 2026): The Russian Federal Security Service opened a new criminal case against Durov for "aiding and abetting terrorist activities," claiming that certain large-scale illegal actions were coordinated via Telegram.​Roskomnadzor Blockades (April 2026): The Russian digital oversight agency launched a massive wave of restrictions against Telegram's infrastructure and VPN networks to block uncontrolled traffic.🚨 OFFICIAL PROOF: Telegram Apps Center Serves as a Showcase for Scammers!Telegram's "FreeCriminals" policy, operated under the guise of "freedom," is definitively proven by the shared screenshot. Despite official complaints from hundreds of victims, the platform continues to provide a playground for criminals.The Official Approval Trap: On the main storefront of the verified, blue-check Telegram Apps Center, the Acidlabs (Boinkers) project is displayed as if it were a legitimate application.The Massive Heist: Utilizing this mask of corporate trust, these scammers have victimized hundreds of people, including myself.

Never trust projects inside Telegram just because they look "approved"—protect your assets!​💡 Realistic Takeaway for Investor​As a crypto community, we advocate for decentralization and privacy; however, the right to privacy should not be an armor used by those who defraud hundreds of thousands of investors.
Reputation and FUD Risk: As Telegram’s indifferent "FreeCriminals" image grows in the face of organized crime and token scams, institutional capital inflows into the TON ecosystem could hit a standstill.​Harsh Regulatory Wave: As states lose their patience, we could see much more aggressive sanctions and delisting pressures on TON and its associated tokens (NOT, DOGS, HMSTR).​While chasing opportunities in the market, do not forget to factor these massive moral and legal risks carried by the platform into your portfolio management.

$TON {spot}(TONUSDT) Short term pullback coming for TON??? Guys, I was too bearish on TON at $2.42 & today it has come to $1.512, a massive 37% dump from my previous post (check the quoted post) and 48% from my green box top. I guess I've saved you from a big loss. Now let's check what's coming next for TON. I've put the Fibonacci retracement tool & found a support box (check 1st screenshot) at this current price. TON needs to consolidate here for a pullback upwards, which should make a double top pattern before a massive crash. TON has also broken the downward trendline & currently is retesting it. A successful retest will send it higher where the first target should be at $3.686. On the 1D tf, it's trying to find support (check 2nd screenshot) at 1D 200MA & 1D 100MA. Losing them will send it lower. However, if a daily candle closes below the white box, please don't hold it. Sell it. Liquidation Heatmap (check 3rd & 4th screenshots) is showing that there's not much liquidity left below to take. Rather, there’s liquidity higher which should be taken out first before going down. So, I'm expecting at least a dead cat bounce from here or a full bull rally. Let's see if I'm right or wrong! #TON #PavelDurov

TON, $0.85 incoming!! 😱😱
Recently, we've seen a surge in the TON coin as well as some bullish news about the APR on TON chain. Let's see what charts have to say about that!

On 1D tf, you can see that TON is consolidating in my green box for around 4 days (check 1st screenshot) & that's totally normal because the green box represents the distribution phase which requires time. As long as TON is inside the green box, it’s going to dump soon towards $0.85 or below! Invalidation is closing a daily candle above the box.

High leveraged liquidations & low leveraged liquidations charts are showing that (check 2nd & 3rd screenshots) there's not much short liquidations left above. Tons of long liquidations lying below the current price, which are eventually going to be taken out.

So, on ltf, price can pump but on htf, these small pump are only meant to be distributions of market makers to the retailers. Therefore, be aware of buying TON here.
