Tonx executives address TON misconceptions: Telegram’s TON sales come with four-year vesting terms, Tonx as key buyer

Manuel Stotz, Executive Chairman of TON Strategy Company, responded to the Financial Times regarding the claim that Telegram sold nearly 10% of its current TON circulating market cap in 2025. He clarified that all TON tokens sold by Telegram come with a four-year vesting period.

Stotz emphasized that TON Strategy Company is the largest buyer of TON tokens to accumulate and stake them, and that Telegram’s holdings likely increased significantly from December 2024 to December 2025. Moreover, the report about Durov’s commitment to improving the Ton ecosystem and cryptocurrency integration in 2026 is accurate.
