Blockchain project becomes ‘one of largest social experiments in the world’

[Dociko]

A blockchain project believes it can achieve massive scalability while pushing the boundaries of decentralization.
When this “truly decentralized” blockchain launched on May 7, 2020, it had not sold a single token.

A year later, Free TON still hasn’t — and won’t — TON Labs CTO Mitja Goroshevsky said on a May 3 Cointelegraph AMA.

That’s unique for a proof-of-stake blockchain, which generally relies on validators who stake a fair amount of a project’s tokens to ensure good behavior.

But then, very little is normal about the Free TON project, which arose from the ashes of Telegram messaging service’s Telegram Open Network blockchain. Source: Cointelegraph
