How $TON become one of the top cryptocurrencies on Binance?
Toncoin $TON has gathered significant attention since its launch on Binance, quickly ascending the ranks to become one of the top cryptocurrencies on the exchange. Its initial listing ignited a surge in trading activity, propelling the price from around $4.3 to a peak of approximately $7.2 within just a week. This meteoric rise was fueled by a combination of factors, including the integration of Toncoin into the Telegram ecosystem and a growing community of supporters.
However, the recent arrest of Pavel Durov, the founder of Telegram, cast a shadow over Toncoin’s rapid growth. Durov was apprehended in France, facing serious allegations including drug sales and money laundering, which sent shockwaves through the cryptocurrency market. Following the announcement of his arrest, Toncoin's price plummeted by over 25%, dropping from $6.80 to around $4.6, leading to a significant market value loss estimated at $2.7 billion.
Despite this setback, there are indications that Toncoin may recover. After the initial panic selling, technical analysis suggests a potential rebound, as Toncoin has been trading within an ascending channel with strong support around the lower trendline. Additionally, the futures market has shown rising open interest, suggesting increased trader confidence and speculation on a price rebound.
Currently, Toncoin's price stands at approximately $5.9 with a 2.7% decline in the last 24 hours. As of today, Toncoin holds a fully diluted market capitalization of around $30 billion and a total supply of 5 billion $TON tokens(Coinmarketcap). As market sentiment stabilizes, traders are hopeful that Toncoin can reclaim its former highs, especially if the legal issues surrounding Durov are resolved without significantly impacting the TON blockchain's operations.
