According to Odaily, several venture capital representatives shared their views on the arrest of Telegram founder Pavel Durov and its impact on the TON ecosystem. Alex Felix, a partner at CoinFund, stated that he does not regret his firm's investment in TON, emphasizing that the fundamentals of TON remain unchanged. Joven Wu, head of business development at Ryze Labs, noted that the controversy has significantly increased TON's visibility, potentially attracting more users and developers to the ecosystem.
