France has lifted the travel restrictions on Telegram founder Pavel Durov after holding him under nearly a year of judicial control—marking a partial victory for the tech entrepreneur who spent the past twelve months accused of enabling illicit content and criminal activity through his encrypted messaging platform.

Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov has made a bold prediction: one day, governments around the world will be forced to stop printing money — and when that moment comes, Bitcoin will step in as the global currency.

On July 9, 2025, Snoop Dogg’s released 996,000 non-fungible tokens (NFTs) through the Ton blockchain, consisting of collectible that were iconically in Snoop's style.

UAE regulators confirmed that staking Toncoin does not qualify anyone for a golden visa, denying claims made by The Open Network. They warned the public to ignore false offers and said crypto investments have no link to visa or residency rights.

Binance now offers full access to Syrian users after the US lifted sanctions, removing Syria from its Prohibited Countries list. Syrians can trade over 300 tokens, joining 270 million users globally—a major shift for a region long cut off from global finance. Could this be a breakthrough for financial inclusion?

Tether has launched its gold-backed stablecoin, XAUt0, on the TON blockchain. Using the Omnichain standard, it enables cross-chain transfers and aims to compete with traditional gold investments and other tokenised gold assets—bridging physical assets with DeFi.

Pavel Durov announced a one-year Grok AI partnership with Telegram, sending Toncoin surging but Elon Musk publicly refuted the claim, stating no such deal had been made. Now, the crypto community is left wondering: was it premature or pure fiction?

TradingView launched a mini app within Telegram, allowing users to track market trends, share charts, and analyse data directly through the messaging platform. The app, which integrates TON Blockchain for crypto market data, offers enhanced access to decentralised exchange data and expanded market insights.

Notcoin is launching Not Games, a platform that integrates multiple titles with Game Profiles, shared inventories, and an in-game marketplace using NOT tokens. But with a drop in TON’s user base from 2.4 million to 130,000 daily active addresses and a 2 million decline in Telegram membership, will it be regain its former glory?

We are finally getting some exciting plot twist from Pavel Durov's case. Durov is not only getting back his passport but he has also been granted permission from the French court to leave the country.
