Telegram co-founder Pavel Durov has finally returned to Dubai after spending months in France about an investigation into illegal activities in the messaging platform.

French authorities have placed Durov under judicial supervision since August 24, 2024. This required him to report twice a week to the police, post a €5M bail, and remain indefinitely in the country.

In a statement on Telegram, the United Arab Emirates citizen Durov said that the process is still ongoing but he’s happy to be home. He also thanked his lawyers and team, and the investigative judges for making the release possible.

The news sent $TON surging by over 20%, and this bodes well to other altcoins due to increased market hype and investor interest.

A Ton of Good News for $TON

The native coin of The Open Network (formerly known as ‘Telegram Open Network’) rose past the $3 mark on March 15 as a result of Durov’s release, a level not seen since early 2022.

The TON Foundation released a statement regarding Durov’s release, stating that it is delighted to learn of the news.

‘As part of the decentralized TON community, we have stood in solidarity with Pavel, supporting his unwavering dedication to defending the right to free speech and privacy online,’ the statement added.

While the crypto market has taken a beating over the past several weeks, the rise in $TON’s value has attracted the attention of investors looking for altcoins and meme coins to buy.

This increased interest in outliers in the market will also benefit other tokens. Here are three of the best altcoins that are worth looking into.

1. Solaxy ($SOLX) – Making Solana Faster and More Reliable

Solaxy ($SOLX) is the first-ever Solana L2 blockchain that aims to unleash Solana’s full potential. It focuses on its ability to address common challenges with Solana, including network congestion, failed transactions, and limited scalability.

$SOLX is Solaxy’s native token that features multi-chain support on Ethereum and Solana, two of the largest and most active crypto ecosystems. This exponentially increases $SOLX’s potential buyer pool and utility.

The token is currently on presale, which allows buyers to purchase it at its current lowest price of $0.001666. It’s set to increase in a few hours, so it’s best to buy $SOLX as soon as possible (especially since it’s predicted to grow by 120x by the end of 2026).

If you’re interested in buying the token, simply visit the Solaxy presale page and connect your crypto wallet. You can purchase tokens with $BNB, $ETH, or $SOL, or using fiat via credit card.

You can also immediately stake $SOLX tokens you’ve purchased. This will allow you to earn rewards while supporting the network.

To learn more about the project, you can visit the official Solaxy presale page, join its Telegram channel, follow it on X, or read its whitepaper.

2. MIND of Pepe ($MIND) – Delivering Exclusive Crypto Insights with a Self-Evolving AI Agent

MIND of Pepe ($MIND) is a crypto project that will develop a self-evolving AI agent.

This will gather information on the latest crypto trends and opportunities, as well as shape market discussions. The data gathered will then be distilled and made exclusively available to holders of its native $MIND token.

You can already grab $MIND tokens by joining the presale. Tokens are currently priced at $0.0035376 each and are due for another round of price increase in a few hours.

To take advantage of the low token price, visit the MIND of Pepe presale page, connect your wallet, and swap with your crypto or use your credit card to buy with fiat. You can also stake tokens to enjoy high APYs (303%).

The project has raised over $7.4M to date, which makes it one of the most best crypto presales of 2025. The price will likely see a huge increase once $MIND is launched in DEXs and CEXs.

The official MIND of Pepe website and whitepaper have more information about the project. You can also follow it on X or join its Telegram channel for the latest updates.

3. Keeta ($KTA) – Bringing Faster and Cheaper Transactions to Blockchains and Payment Networks

Launched in early March, Keeta is a high-performance L1 blockchain that aims to unify transactions between various payment networks and blockchains.

It was founded back in 2022 by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt and built with adherence to strict regulatory requirements in mind.

The platform is set to make transaction fees cheaper and faster. Compared to its competitors, which can only handle 100K transactions per second, Keeta claims to do 10M (a 390x compared to the fastest blockchain today, ICP).

The value of its native token $KTA has grown exponentially over the past week and broke the $0.1 mark today. Overall, the token has grown by 597% over the last seven days and by 182.6% in the last 24 hours.

$KTA tokens are already available in DEXs, including Aerodome, which is currently the most popular exchange for buying and trading Keeta’s native coin. From its launch price of around $0.0076, it’s currently priced at $0.1037, making it one of the hottest new crypto in the market.

You can learn more about Keeta by visiting its official website.

Before You Invest…

$TON’s surge indicates the crypto market is far from dead. It’s alive and kicking, and waiting for a push to explode.

And altcoins like Solaxy, Mind of Pepe and Keeta are there to push the industry forward and give you the opportunity to invest in the future of crypto.

But remember that the crypto market is highly volatile. Because of this, always do your own research before buying tokens in presale. Please use the information in this article only for educational purposes and not as investment advice.

BNB Chain Releases Research Report, Exploring Post-Quantum Cryptography Migration Path for BSC

BNB Chain, a leading Layer-1 blockchain ecosystem, has released a research report exploring the potential migration path for BNB Smart Chain (BSC) to post-quantum cryptography. The study evaluates replacing traditional cryptographic systems with quantum-resistant alternatives, specifically examining the use of ML-DSA-44 for transaction signing and pqSTARK for aggregating validator consensus signatures. While quantum computers are not currently a practical threat to existing blockchain cryptography, the research represents a proactive effort to ensure long-term network security and infrastructure resilience. The report assessed several core areas of the BSC tech stack, including post-quantum transaction signing, validator signature aggregation, transaction validation, public key storage, and network performance under increased data loads. A key finding is that achieving post-quantum readiness is technically feasible today but requires significant trade-offs in scalability. Test data indicates: • Transaction size would increase from ~110 bytes to ~2.5 kilobytes. • Block size would grow from ~110 kilobytes to ~2 megabytes. • Native transfer TPS would decrease from 4,973 to 2,997. The primary performance bottleneck is not signature verification itself, but the increased network transmission overhead caused by larger transaction and block sizes. Conversely, the pqSTARK aggregation technology proved highly efficient, compressing validator signatures by an approximately 43:1 ratio, which helps manage consensus-layer overhead. The report notes that post-quantum alternatives for areas like P2P handshakes and KZG commitments were not within the scope of this evaluation and require further research and broader ecosystem coordination. BNB Chain emphasizes this work is a research-oriented exploration and not a response to any imminent security threat.

After Developer Numbers Halved: Crypto Isn't Dead, It's Just Giving Up Talent to AI

The title "After a 50% Drop in Developer Count: Crypto Isn't Dead, It's Just Ceding Talent to AI" suggests a shift, not an end. The article analyzes GitHub data showing a significant drop in overall Crypto developer activity from a peak of 45K monthly active developers in 2022 to about 23K in 2026. However, this masks a deeper trend of "talent deleveraging." The exodus consists mainly of newcomers who entered during the bull market for hype-driven roles (e.g., NFT contracts, forked DeFi protocols), with over 50% of developers with less than one year of experience leaving. In contrast, established developers (2+ years of experience) have hit record highs, contributing roughly 70% of the code. They are consolidating in ecosystems with real users and revenue, like Bitcoin and Solana. These experienced builders possess unique skills forged in Crypto's "code is law" environment: the ability to build trust and functional systems from scratch in the absence of external authority or rules, with zero tolerance for error. The article argues that AI's scaling faces structurally similar trust, coordination, and verification problems—particularly regarding compute aggregation, multi-agent incentive alignment, and autonomous payments. Crypto builders are already applying these skills in AI. Examples include CoreWeave (mining to AI compute), OpenRouter (NFT marketplace routing to AI model routing), and projects like Hyperbolic (using crypto-native mechanisms for decentralized compute verification) and EigenLayer (applying restaking logic to AI agent governance). Stablecoin infrastructure is becoming critical for AI agent micro-payments (e.g., x402 protocol). The role of these builders is evolving from writing smart contracts to "designing trusted mechanisms for autonomous AI systems." This shift is reflected in new hiring trends at major exchanges and significant venture capital flowing into the crypto-AI convergence (e.g., funds from Paradigm, Haun Ventures). The article concludes that while developer numbers have halved, the core density of talent has increased, and their uniquely cultivated skills are finding a new, larger stage in the AI era.

After the Developer Count Halved: Crypto Is Not Dead, It's Just Ceding Talent to AI

Following a significant decline in the total number of open-source crypto developers, from a peak of 45K in 2022 to approximately 23K by 2026, this article argues the industry is undergoing a "talent deleveraging" rather than a collapse. The exodus primarily consists of newcomers who entered during the bull market, while the core of experienced developers (2+ years) has grown to a record high, contributing around 70% of code. These established builders are concentrating in ecosystems with real users and revenue, like Bitcoin and Solana. The article posits that crypto has cultivated a unique skill set in building trustless, autonomous systems with near-zero tolerance for error—a capability now finding high demand in the AI era. As AI scales, it faces structural gaps in decentralized compute aggregation, multi-agent coordination/incentive alignment, and autonomous payment infrastructure. Crypto builders are transitioning their expertise to address these exact problems. Examples include CoreWeave (mining to AI compute), Hyperbolic (decentralized compute verification), EigenLayer (extending restaking mechanisms to AI agent governance), and the x402 protocol (enabling AI agent micro-payments via stablecoins). The role of the crypto builder is evolving from writing smart contracts to designing the rule-based, trust-minimized frameworks necessary for AI-native systems. Venture capital is increasingly funding this convergence, viewing it as a structural opportunity rather than a narrative shift. The core talent and systemic design principles from crypto are not disappearing but being re-priced and applied to the foundational challenges of scalable AI.

Goldman Sachs Dumps XRP and Solana ETFs in Major Crypto Portfolio Shake-Up

In a significant portfolio shift, Goldman Sachs has eliminated its holdings in XRP and Solana exchange-traded funds (ETFs) as of Q1 2026, according to SEC filings. The bank's Q4 2025 filing had shown about $154 million invested across four XRP ETFs, but these positions were absent in the subsequent quarter. While divesting from these altcoin products, Goldman Sachs maintained substantial investments in Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. It held $690 million in BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and $25 million in Fidelity's Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), despite a 10% reduction in each. Its stake in the iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) was cut by over 70%, leaving a position worth approximately $114 million. The move highlights the bank's strategic reallocation within the crypto ETF space, favoring the two largest digital assets over other alternatives like XRP and Solana.

A Quick Look at the Latest Moves of the 24-Year-Old 'AI Stock God': Sixty Percent of the Portfolio Hedging Against Semiconductor Downturn

24-year-old AI investing prodigy Leopold Aschenbrenner's fund, Situational Awareness LP, has disclosed its Q1 2026 13F holdings. The fund's total portfolio nominal value surged 148% to $13.7 billion, driven by both investment gains and significant new capital inflows. The most striking move was the establishment of massive short-term hedges against potential volatility in the AI semiconductor sector. Over 60% of the fund's nominal exposure is now in put options (bets on declines) targeting major AI hardware stocks like NVIDIA (NVDA), VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH), Broadcom (AVGO), and AMD. Notably, the fund also holds call options (bets on rises) on some names like Micron (MU) and TSMC, indicating it expects extreme price swings in these stocks. Alongside these hedges, the fund remains a long-term bull on AI infrastructure. It significantly increased its equity stakes in companies like GPU cloud provider CoreWeave (CRWV) and added to positions in power/energy infrastructure firms like Bloom Energy (BE), albeit after taking substantial profits on the latter. The fund also exited positions in optical communication hardware (LITE, COHR) and reduced leverage by clearing out large call option positions on Intel and CoreWeave. In essence, the portfolio reflects a dual strategy: cautious on near-term semiconductor valuations and potential over-extension, while maintaining a conviction that the true long-term bottlenecks and value will be in the underlying infrastructure powering the AI revolution—such as energy, data centers, and compute availability.
