\nRecently, TechCrunch announced<\/a><\/noindex> the start of sales of 'grams' on July 10 at the Japanese exchange Liquid. Surprisingly, the world believed in a completely fabricated story about the financial instrument Telegram.<\/p>\n

Epigraph<\/h2>\n

\nMajor publications often publish rumors (information from verified sources), but you won\u2019t find a multi-part narrative like the one surrounding TON, built entirely on leaks without any official information.<\/p>\n

Yes, there might have been news about the Apple car. But no one wrote that the company would present it in the spring, that a badge for the steering wheel has already been developed, that the release has been postponed to the fall, that German and French automotive giants secretly invested in a new type of engine, that pre-orders will start at an exhibition in Japan, and so on.<\/p>\n

This story is not meant to protect everyone from scammers. I\u2019m an optimist, but not that much. So this story is about post-truth and journalism, about marketing and manipulation, about RBC, Kommersant, Vedomosti, The Bell, TechCrunch, and all the others.

Timeline<\/h2>\n

\nReturning to Telegram cryptocurrency. Personally, I have\u00a0always<\/a><\/noindex>\u00a0approached the leaks about TON with great skepticism. However, to clarify the headline for you, I will try to reconstruct the entire chronology of events.<\/p>\n

On December 21, 2017 (on the date when Pavel\u00a0celebrates<\/a><\/noindex>\u00a0the Winter Solstice) for the first time, TON was mentioned online \u2014 YouTube channel Z\u039eFIR\u00a0announced<\/a><\/noindex>\u00a0released a video with a supposed announcement of the Telegram blockchain system. That same evening, the video was noted by\u00a0reported<\/a><\/noindex>\u00a0former VKontakte employee Anton Rosenberg. Let's pause at this moment for more details.<\/p>\n
