The project is probably still under development or things didn't work out as they planned.

Well, don't forget that no startup or new project has 100% chances of succeeding. The big company experience failures too and also do alot of experimentation behind scenes. Just that we don't  hear much about them.
That is right. But when I message them on telegram, they keep on making promises and use this tag line 'soon" which is not really relying on. Better to just keep away from this project.

They've been VERY quiet... that's for sure...
That was not good to them. Because they were showing some conclusions for their project to turned to be scam. Beware of investing some projects related on this because it may turned to scam.

These guys are doing an overview on what's happening with TON https://cryptotradernews.com/cryptocurrency/what-happened-to-telegrams-ton/


But what the hell man I mean these guys raised over 1 billion dollars a while ago and I haven't heard squad from their super messaging app yet. Even Bizz has their app on the app store!

Thoughts?
Maybe the amount is fantasy to attract a lot of investors, it's absolutely illogical to have raised up to that amount and they do not have anything to show the this present moment.

it's not over, they will make a public sale. I guess they've been waiting for better market conditions.

I don’t remember where you come up with such guesses because the telegames are one of the largest social networks and have collected a lot of money and it’s not at all beneficial to be a scam because it will lose a very large audience.
I read about it  in the news. I want to believe that this is not a fraud. Durov created an excellent and convenient social network, I want to trust him.

Come on, they don’t need scammers, there’s plenty of money, I think Pavel Durov is more interested in cryptocurrency, show another breakthrough and show his best

I think such projects do take time so be patient, it is correct that they raised massive amounts of money but then again if we stay positive and trust them then we can come to the conclusion that they are developing a world class platform with out any bugs or errors that may be the reason for slow progress. I hope the final telegram product powered by tonn will be near to perfect one in its category.

Until I can see the coin itself and is traceable on exchange that is when I can say it is a scam or not but I dont think it will ever be a scam cos the project has a reputable image.

Since I joined ico the development takes more than 1 year, I think ton is not a scam, maybe Mr. Pavel has a separate plan for that because if it is wrong, maybe the funding obtained by the telegram will be in vain, giving a little longer so they can plan mature ones

I very much doubt that TON is a scam, they raised a lot of money, much more than it is necessary - perhaps, but scam - definitely not.

It could very well be scam. However, no updates or information from the team for sometime.

Time would tell. And the time is speaking. The private investors have had nothing, not even updates about the  project in the last year and they are getting frustrated already. The so called ICO in liquid is just one of the private investor selling off his tokens to reduce his loss on the tokens. There are no official announcement from the Telegram team till now.

Telegram being quiet doesn't make their TON project a scam after all what they had was private sell and during the period much wasn't said as well about it. They're probably in contact with their investors and development ongoing as well.

In my opinion, this is not a scam. The project has a lot of prospects and in the future the token will appear on major exchanges and most likely can rise in price. I believe that the project will certainly be successful.

The ICO/private sell was actually for creating a blockchain called TON which would be used as a one stop solution for every kinds of communications. GRAM would be the currency of this blockchain and it would be open for everyone for use. So, it's not just Telegram but a new concept that could or could not change the future of communications.

I do not know nothing about TON and its ICO, since ICO was only for private investors (big whales).
I am glad that we weren´t able to buy another hype scam ICO coin, enjoy it whales.

I have seen their good rate scores in ICOBench, but for now I have a slight hope for holding this. Because right now I have doubt on this project. Their community was near to dead. I certainly hope My guess was wrong after all.

I also do not like the fact that the telegram team does not seem to be good at communicating with their community of supporters neither they post regular updates, till they change this and come up with solid progress unfortunately, we are going to keep seeing such accusational posts, so personally i would suggest ton team to be more responsive and post regular development updates with the community.
