Under the guise of fighting fraud, central banks and government regulators constantly encroach on people's personal freedoms. It's necessary to remember these risks while developing decentralized financial instruments.

Pavel Durov made a brilliant marketing move by offering 50% payouts to channel owners in tokens. The Telegram ecosystem with the TON blockchain has the potential to become a true "financial oasis," protected from many risks of centralization.

TON's recent performance record of 100,000 transactions per second is truly impressive. This surpasses not only competitors among blockchains but also giants like Visa and Mastercard.

However, Durov's successes are attracting unwanted attention from U.S. regulators. The SEC and other agencies already view such projects as competitors.
