Will there be enough liquidity for the TON investors to take the profit?Other than Telegram Open Network, there are several projects developing blockchain scalability solutions aimed at opening the beauty of decentralized systems to millions of users. One of these projects – the Cosmos Network. Cosmos is an ecosystem of independent parallel blockchains where thousands of decentralized applications interoperate to create the foundation for a new token economy.
In private and public rounds during early 2017, the project has collected $17.6 million, pricing its native token (ATOM) at $0.10. The average contribution from around 900 addresses was about $18,000, suggesting that large investors played a considerable role.
ATOM trading commenced this March with a whopping +6,500% from the initial price. The project has impetuously made its way to the top 15 of Coinmarketcap with a total capitalization of $1.2 billion as of today. ATOM is now traded on 26 crypto exchanges with roughly $2.5 billion total trading volume during the last 30 days. The current circulating supply is 80% of the total supply.

As you can see, despite such a huge downward pressure from the initial investors, the market swallowed all the sold tokens and the price successfully resisted. What does it mean to TON investors?
- there is a significant interest in the new-generation blockchain projects
- high-quality projects can hit top rankings right from the listing date
- during the first months of trading, the price can be extremely volatile, however, the crypto market shows that it has the power to absorb substantial volumes coming from the selling side
- TON with its user base and multilateral solution can easily surpass ATOM’s market cap by multiple times
We expect that the lock-up period and OTC market will soften the downward pressure during the first months of Grams trading. While it’s hard to predict which turn the events might take, we treat this Cosmos Network case as a very positive sign for the TON investors.
