Hey there, BTC enthusiasts! 🚀🎉 The Open Network (TON) is facing a storm of phishing attacks amidst a price rally and increased network activity. Sneaky attackers are luring TON wallet holders with fake airdrops and other deceptive tactics. Yikes! 😱

The main victims? Telegram users with anonymous numbers. These numbers, similar to phone numbers, are used to create Telegram accounts without needing a SIM card - pretty cool, right? But this also means they're at a higher risk of being phished. If that happens, the corresponding Telegram account could be lost unless there's a separate password or two-step verification. Stay safe, folks! 🔒

But it's not all doom and gloom! TON has seen spectacular growth in 2024. The decentralized Layer 1 blockchain's daily transfer volume has hit 10% of Bitcoin's figures. That's a whopping $5 billion to $10 billion last week alone! 🤯

This surge is thanks to several key developments, like an advertising system on Telegram that pays channel owners in TON cryptocurrency. Plus, the launch of The Open League program in April introduced a long-term incentive structure for the TON community.

And the cherry on top? DeFiLlama data shows TON's total value locked (TVL) surged to nearly $650 million on Monday, a 7% increase in just a week. That's over a 4,540% increase since the beginning of 2024! 🚀🎉

So, while TON faces challenges, its growth is undeniably impressive. Stay tuned for more updates, BTC lovers!
