Компания The Open Platform намерена потратить средства на разработку новых сервисов в TON и продвижение криптокошелька Wallet в Европу и США

Компания The Open Platform (TOP), стоящая за встроенным в Telegram криптокошельком Wallet и тесно связанная с экосистемой TON, объявила о привлечении $28,5 млн инвестиций при оценке в $1 млрд. Как пишет Fortune, новый инвестраунд возглавил финтех-фонд Ribbit Capital, также в нем участвовала Pantera Capital.

Сделка предусматривает продажу около 5% доли в компании и не предполагает распределения токенов. По словам главы и сооснователя TOP Андрея Рогозова, общая сумма привлеченных инвестиций в ходе нескольких раундов финансирования превысила $70 млн.

Рогозов — бывший руководитель «ВКонтакте», присоединился к проекту в 2022 году. Компания зарегистрирована в Абу-Даби и с самого начала ориентирована на развитие экосистемы Telegram. В 2024 году он выступал на криптоконференции TOKEN 2049 в Дубае на одной сцене с Павлом Дуровым и главой компании Tether Паоло Ардоино.

Привлеченные средства компания планирует направить на развитие новых проектов на базе TON — от блокчейн-игр до ИИ-приложений. Также TOP намерен за счет этих средств вывести криптокошелек Wallet в Европу и США. В настоящий момент он недоступен пользователям из этих регионов.

«Нам нужно поддерживать все, что связано с соблюдением требований законодательства, операциями и прочим, верно? Это очень дорого осуществить», — отметил Рогозов.

Курс Toncoin (TON) не отреагировал на новость. На 17:45 мск монета торгуется около $2,88, за последние сутки она подорожала на 1,3%. Исторический максимум ($8,25) был зафиксирован в июне 2024 года, с тех пор TON подешевел на 65%.

Подъем курса нативной криптовалюты экосистемы TON в прошлом году до рекорда проходил на фоне ажиотажа, связанного с играми-«тапалками», набиравшими популярность в Telegram. C тех пор интерес к ним угас, разработчики одного из таких проектов — Notcoin — утверждают, что формат таких игр «вероятно, мертв», они стали нерентабельны и на смену им должны прийти новые тренды.

Injective receives SEC transfer agent registration for institutional services arm

Injective Institutional Services, an affiliate of the Injective blockchain ecosystem, has become an effective SEC-registered transfer agent. This registration allows it to maintain official securities ownership records and process ownership changes, a key function in traditional markets now applicable to tokenized real-world assets (RWAs). The service will be integrated with Injective Mint, the ecosystem's platform for issuing and managing tokenized assets. The move follows Injective's recent expansion into tokenized markets, including digital asset treasuries, equities, and pre-IPO shares. The company initially filed its transfer agent application with the SEC in July, marking a step in building regulated infrastructure for onchain securities.

Ripple's Dual Goal: "IPO and the Clarity Act!" Important Statements from Ripple's CEO and Chief Legal Officer!

Ripple's CEO Brad Garlinghouse, speaking at the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium in 2026, maintains a neutral stance on a potential IPO, stating the company is financially strong and happy to remain private. He highlighted Ripple's recent $3 billion share buyback and $2.5 billion in acquisitions, supporting the view that an IPO is not a current necessity. Ripple's Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty emphasized the critical upcoming milestone for the CLARITY Act on September 15th, when a key Senate procedural vote will determine its advancement. He expressed optimism for its congressional passage, noting the need for 60 votes, but warned that failure to pass comprehensive legislation could drive innovation and investment out of the U.S., harming job creation and economic growth.

Arca Chief Investment Officer: How Should Tokens Be Valued Once Protocols Start Earning Money?

Title: Arca CIO: How Should Tokens Be Valued When Protocols Start Making Money? Summary: For over a decade, Arca has argued that digital assets should be valued based on fundamentals and future cash flows, just like traditional investments. While tokens are not stocks, basic investment principles still apply. Many decentralized protocols (e.g., Hyperliquid, Aave) are now generating significant, real revenue with high margins. However, protocol revenue alone does not automatically translate to token value. Unlike equity holders who have a legal claim on company assets and future cash flows (via dividends, buybacks, or acquisitions), token holders often lack a clear, enforceable path to receive value from protocol profits. Therefore, the critical link between protocol economics and token economics is even more important. A credible mechanism must exist for value to eventually flow to token holders, with token buybacks being one clear, direct method. Capital allocation is now a key issue for profitable protocols. Like growing companies, protocols should reinvest profits when returns on investment are high. However, this reinvestment only delays value capture; it cannot replace it indefinitely. Investors must believe that eventually, surplus capital will be returned. For example, two protocols with identical revenues should not trade at the same valuation multiple if one has a credible buyback mechanism and the other does not. As the market increasingly accepts this valuation framework, a major opportunity exists. Protocols with strong fundamentals and value-capture mechanisms may see their valuation multiples expand significantly as the historical discount for token-based assets narrows. Crypto investment is finally maturing into fundamental analysis, focusing on revenue growth, margins, competitive advantages, reinvestment returns, and credible paths for profit distribution to token holders.

Wyoming Moves FRNT from LayerZero to Chainlink CCIP

The Wyoming Stable Token Commission, the state-issued digital dollar issuer, has migrated the Frontier Stable Token (FRNT) from LayerZero to Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). Under a multi-year agreement, CCIP will become the exclusive infrastructure for the token's cross-chain interoperability, providing data and asset transfer between blockchains. FRNT is the first fiat-collateralized stablecoin issued by a U.S. state authority, designed for payments, settlements, and other government and commercial operations. It currently operates on multiple networks including Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, Ethereum, Hedera, Optimism, Polygon, and Solana. Initially using LayerZero's Omnichain Fungible Token standard for multi-chain issuance, the Commission decided to move away from that system following a review of LayerZero's information disclosure and operational security practices. Wyoming has been developing FRNT's multi-chain model since 2023. The shift to CCIP will maintain the token's availability across multiple public blockchains while upgrading the underlying cross-network transfer infrastructure. According to the Commission, this transition aims to enhance operational security as the state expands its use of digital assets.

Rain Creates Alliance to Develop AI Payments

Rain, a developer of stablecoin payment infrastructure, has launched the Agentic Payments Alliance (APA), a coalition of companies focused on establishing standards for AI-agent-powered commerce. Initial members include Visa, Mastercard, Circle, Solana, Remitly, Avalanche, Chainalysis, Fiserv, Fireblocks, Uniswap Labs, and Turnkey. The alliance will explore how AI agents can make payments on behalf of users, with a focus on agent authorization, fraud protection, identification, and handling loyalty program benefits. Operating as a collaborative initiative, APA plans to conduct research, develop shared standards, and test solutions for AI agent identification and authorization, while also addressing the regulatory aspects of agent-facilitated payments. Rain has already developed its own Agent Control Layer and Scoped Cards systems, which enable the secure provisioning of payment credentials to AI agents while limiting access to funds. Alliance participants will also gain early access to Rain's Agentic Startup Program, which supports startups building AI-agent-driven commerce solutions.
