TON Foundation has appointed Maximilian Crown as its new Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Mr. Crown co-founded MoonPay, a large player in the world of crypto payments.
As CFO and COO, he expanded MoonPay, built relationships with banks, payment systems, regulators, and lead the company to industry heights. He will continue to serve on MoonPay’s board of directors.
Crown’s appointment strengthens TON’s strategic position as institutional interest in the ecosystem grows. The previous president of the TON Foundation was Manuel Stotz, founder of Kingsway Capital.
🎯The goal of TON Foundation is to attract 30% of Telegram’s active user base to the TON blockchain by 2028.
These are the four focal points:
1. Native Telegram IP: stickers, gifts, digital collectibles
2. Multiplayer mini-games
3. Intuitive DeFi products for savings
4. Real crypto payments for everyday scenarios
💬Maximilian Crown:
"TON’s speed, scalability, and exclusive integration with Telegram set it apart in the blockchain space. With access to over 1 billion Telegram users, TON has a unique opportunity to expand its ecosystem globally and redefine how blockchain technology is adopted at scale. I am honored to lead TON Foundation in this crucial moment."
