TON is now the 9th largest cryptocurrency
With the rise of TON, Its market capitalization rose to USD 25 billion, surpassing the one owned by the cardano cryptocurrency (ADA). It is now positioned 9th in the ranking. This has been motivated in part by the rise in the price of bitcoin (BTC), which reached a new all-time high almost a month ago, driving cryptocurrencies in general higher. Likewise, it has taken place in the midst of different developments related to TON. Last week, It was learned that a platform within Toncoin is working on a project that seeks to validate the humanity of people by scanning biometric data. As BitcoinDynamic reported, this is an initiative similar to the one implemented by Worldcoin. In addition, in the same week, the mobile messaging application Telegram included the cryptocurrency for advertising payments on the platform. These developments were added to others from days before, such as the fact that the asset management company 21Shares launched a TON exchange-traded investment fund (ETF), which makes it easier for traditional investors to access it.
