According to Odaily Planet Daily, Jack Booth, co-founder of TON Society, believes that achieving large-scale adoption of cryptocurrency depends on advancing decentralization within TON. Booth's organization focuses on decentralizing finance and data on TON, and he said the TON community "is building a decentralized ecosystem" to make DeFi, data, and digital ownership "more accessible." Booth said: "TON's mission is to achieve large-scale adoption of cryptocurrency, and our goal is to achieve this goal by removing barriers between users and developers and making blockchain technology highly scalable, effective, efficient, and user-friendly, making it accessible to the public." Booth said that decentralized networks can give users better control over their data and finances without relying on centralized institutions, but he warned that competing technologies such as central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) could undermine this, posing fundamental challenges to the principles of decentralization, especially privacy and self-sovereignty.
