Pantera Capital outlined several factors that contributed to their decision to invest in TON. First, they highlighted Telegram’s shared ethos with the core principles of cryptocurrency – a decentralized and open network accessible to all.

Additionally, TON’s scalability positions it to handle transactions for millions of users efficiently. Pantera Capital also cited the ease with which users can onboard to TON through Telegram’s built-in Wallet, enabling seamless interaction with mini-apps within the Telegram ecosystem.

The thriving mini-app ecosystem on Telegram was another key factor for Pantera. Over 360 million users engage with Telegram’s mini-apps monthly, indicating a significant user base primed to explore TON’s potential.

Pantera Capital views TON as a project in its early stages and expresses optimism for the future. They anticipate the Telegram user base to drive significant adoption of the TON ecosystem and its upcoming features.
