The bond freeze controversy faced by Telegram has attracted attention. Affected by Western sanctions, this $500 million bond is currently frozen, directly impacting the project's debt repurchase progress. Many investors are concerned about this.

However, from a performance perspective, Telegram seems to be holding firm. The project team has stated that they will fulfill their debt repayment commitments on time, and their performance in the first half of this year has been impressive—revenue growth reached 65%, with the latest data hitting $870 million. This growth rate is indeed remarkable given the current market environment.

As the key asset within the ecosystem, Toncoin's future trajectory will depend on how the bond issue is resolved. The balance between project financing and ecosystem development is undergoing a real test.

Another play of sanctions, can Telegram withstand this time? --- A 65% growth rate is indeed impressive, but the bond freeze is really exhausting. --- Whether Toncoin's recent performance depends on if the project team is truly confident or just bluffing. --- It's all about funding issues; even nice words are useless. --- Toughing it out? It looks more like gambling on luck to me. --- A revenue of 870 million looks good, but the bond freeze is the real trouble. --- Investors are still hoping for a miracle, but they should have realized the reality long ago. --- How to balance fundraising and development? Probably about to be taught a lesson by reality. --- At such times, you can see who still believes in the project and who is cutting losses. --- Repaying on schedule? Just listen; how easy is it to lift the US freeze order?

Hard to endure, but 500 million is frozen. Still, it depends on whether they can really pay it back or not. A 65% increase in revenue sounds good, but if the bond issues aren't resolved, how can Ton stay stable? Another sanctioned project—life must be really tough. Speaking of repayment, where will the money come from? Won't they have to cut the leeks again? Telegram is really under a lot of pressure this time. Building the ecosystem or repaying the debt—pick one. With 500 million frozen, no matter how much they make, they can't hold on... Sanctions are deadly for project teams. If Ton can survive this, it’s already a good sign.

Bond freezes are really annoying, but seeing revenue grow by 65%, I’m not too worried; the hard strength is right here. --- It’s Western sanctions again, plus bond freezes. Who can handle this kind of daily chaos? --- Are you bragging? Repaying debts on time? Let’s first resolve the frozen $500 million before talking. --- For Toncoin, it depends on how the project team toughs it out. The performance is good, but all these efforts are useless when financing is difficult. --- A 65% growth rate can definitely be bragged about, but under the freeze turmoil, saying this feels like self-deception. --- Is this what you call "toughing it out"? I think it’s more like being forced into a corner. --- Crashing from a financing perspective, boasting from a performance perspective—do these double standards really work?

Sanctions lead to bond freezes, this wave is indeed a bit disappointing Speaking of which, Telegram's revenue increased by 65%, which is somewhat resilient, but they're stuck at $500 million... Can TON hold up? These days, even bonds have become political tools, it's outrageous

Bonds being frozen, let them be frozen. Anyway, Telegram's revenue is right there. What does a 65% growth rate mean? It shows real capability. Whether TON can withstand this wave really depends on how the official team plays it. Don't just say nice things. Revenue of 870 million is indeed impressive, but the debt issue can't be ignored. That's the key. Hard to endure, sanctions are unpredictable, and the risks really exist. Honestly, it's a bit difficult to do both fundraising and ecosystem development at the same time. Which one will Telegram choose? The data looks good, but investors still need to see real money. TON's rise depends entirely on Telegram not dropping the ball. Right now, it’s a test.

Bond freezes are basically a result of geopolitical issues. TG's own performance is pretty good, with 65% growth that can be sustained. --- Wait, five hundred million dollars gets stuck, and they can still repay debts on time? I’m a bit skeptical about that line. --- Toncoin is now in trouble; it depends on how they handle this mess. --- Hard to endure is fine, but I’m worried that when something really happens, they’ll start shifting blame. --- When did the revenue of 870 million come out? Is this the latest data? --- Being called resilient sounds good, but in reality, it’s just gambling on how to fudge through. --- Balancing financing and ecosystem development? What are we still talking about this for at this point?

Bond freezing is indeed heartbreaking, but a 65% revenue growth shows that Telegram still has some skills. --- Another round of sanctions and freezes—life really keeps throwing curveballs. --- Come on, $870 million in revenue—can this growth rate really hold up in a bear market? --- The future of TON entirely depends on how they resolve the bonds; it's a bit stuck. --- I just want to know if they can really repay their debts on time, or if it's just another paper promise. --- A 65% increase is impressive, but having $500 million frozen is no small matter. --- Balancing fundraising and development? Basically, it depends on how they get through this hurdle. --- Alright, let's see if TON can withstand this wave of sanctions. --- Revenue is up, but if they can't fix the bond issue, all the growth is meaningless.
