That is interesting. I think this was part of the Telegram ICO that ran a year or two ago. Thought it was a failed or abandoned project. If this is true I guess telegram was encouraged by Facebook coin. Hopefully it is not centralized.

Telegram raised 1.7 billion dollars in it's private sale and according to some investors, it's going on market at the end of October this year. Every telegram app would act like a wallet for the token so it would already have millions of users and with the promises of anonymity, TON could be the next coin for transactions.

As information, be careful of phishing links with the keyword "Telegram Open Network (TON)"

note: install the EtherAddressLookup extension from MEW, it will automatically detect phishing

This will be very interesting, where all social media platforms, such as Facebook (Libra), Telegram (Ton / Gram), and various other social media platforms spark ideas by creating a new generation of blockchain combined with social media, I think this will be very supportive the development of cryptocurrency in the future, meaning that cryptocurrency will be very massive because social media platforms like Facebook and telegram are used by millions of people in the world.

Facebook have had many troubles for launching Libra with governments and that's why they have suspended releasing their coin. United States government has not allowed Facebook to release their cryptocurrency. I expect Telegram to have such troubles too. Governments don't like popular platforms like Telegram and Facebook play role in payment systems. Because the fame of such platforms can attract many people.
Therefore, Telegram is working on the project silently and they don't announce any thing about development of their project.

Any way, nothing has officially announced by Telegram team.
It's just a claim by an anonymous investor. We don't know even who is this investor.

I aggree with you. Many people say about this. And no one official statement shared by Telegram team on media or even on social media. Be careful for members want to buy this coins. You can buy, but after official release only. Before you start to invest, make sure you are already make own resereach. (DYOR/DWYOR?

According to one of the investors.

On Aug. 28, Russian news outlet Vedomosti quoted an anonymous TON investor claiming to have learned this information from the development team, and the head of one of the companies that participated in the testing so far.

According to the outlet’s sources, TON’s node software and all relevant documentation would be released to the public on Sept. 1. This first version of the blockchain is already expected to feature sharding and various functional consensus mechanisms, the source added.

A blockchain that was popular from the start
TON project is a decentralized application and messaging platform developed by open source messenger Telegram’s team. The blockchain is planned to be integrated into the messaging app used by over 200 million people.

This will be indeed a great deal for Telegram as they already have a great community of 200 million people globally and this will give them an edge over other projects that still battle wiht massive adoption. They only have to worry about sensitizing people on "how to" of the user's interface. we look towards the unveiling of this great innovation by the TON network.

It's better to provide a link when you post such a news.
Here is the link of news on Cointelegraph.
