The TON blockchain, once linked to Telegram, is focusing on US growth under President-elect Donald Trump.

The TON Foundation confirmed its plans on January 14, signaling a major shift toward the American market.

“The US ranks as one of the world’s largest financial centers,” said Manuel Stotz, the new president of the TON Foundation. “We see enormous potential for it to develop into a crypto hub that will promote and support the retail adoption of digital assets.”

A Big Move for TON

Stotz’s leadership marks a critical turning point for TON. The foundation plans to make significant inroads in the US over the coming months. It aims to position the blockchain as a cornerstone in the country’s growing crypto ecosystem.

This push comes as the TON Foundation works to expand its influence and utility. Established as a nonprofit in Switzerland in 2023, the foundation is entirely community-funded and independent of Telegram. The blockchain still has strong ties to Telegram, with CEO Pavel Durov frequently backing the project.
