    The toncoin price crash comes after the chief executive of the toncoin-linked Telegram messaging app, Pavel Durov, was arrested in France.

    Local media reported Durov was arrested at Le Bourget Airport following his arrival in country on a private jet as part of a preliminary police investigation.

    Durov is facing a possible indictment on Sunday, according to reports that cited anonymous sources, with the investigation focused on Telegram’s failure to prevent criminal activity on the messaging app.

    Toncoin, an open-source version of a cryptocurrency that runs on The Open Network blockchain previously known as the Telegram Open Network, was launched in 2021.

    The toncoin price has rocketed almost 1,000% since then, soaring this year along with a bitcoin price boom amid a surge of activity and users due to the popularity of Telegram-based crypto mini-games that use toncoin.

    Telegram’s original plan for toncoin, a cryptocurrency called gram, was never launched after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) branded its $1.7 billion initial coin offering (ICO) fundraiser an unregistered securities sale in 2020 and ordered it to return the funds.

    The non-profit TON Foundation has since led development of the blockchain and toncoin cryptocurrency.

    “When Telegram said goodbye to TON last year, I expressed the hope that future generations of developers would one day carry on with our vision of a mass-market blockchain platform,” Durov wrote in a post in his official Telegram channel in 2021.

    “So I was inspired to see the champions of Telegram’s coding contests continue developing the open TON project, which they rebranded to Toncoin,” the post read, adding: “Toncoin is independent from Telegram.”
