The famous messaging platform Telegram finally confirmed the launch date of its digital currency, Gram. It is expected that the same is available to the public in October of this year, reaching farther than the controversial Libra sponsored by Facebook. On the 27th of August, three anonymous investors in the project told the New York Times already had a date for the launch of a Gram and that is planned to take place in two months. In addition, an investor of Telegram Open Network (TON) in contact with the team, Telegram revealed that it has plans to begin testing publicly the platform from the 1st of September. Despite the doubts that were springing up around the digital currency, in particular on whether it would comply with the time limits set out, which put at risk its launch and, in a few words, its entire existence, everything seems to indicate that the project is progressing according to expectations. It has even been revealed the long-term goal for the executive, which consists of doing that Gram is available to all of the approximately 300 million users of Telegram, added the investors. All of these developments contrast sharply with the stagnant state in which it seems to be Pound in these times. After the tense meeting between the representative of this project and the representatives of the united States, the launch of the digital currency was postponed, and even began to circulate rumors about that possibly Pound could end cancelándose. On the other hand, although Gram has received little attention at the technical level, it seems to be doing everything possible to overcome the odds and be able to be marketed correctly. This could be interpreted as a victory for the draft of the Telegram in front of Facebook. But Gram still can not sing victory. Still lack that Telegram is in front of regulators for their project of digital currency, and there is not much information about how you plan to appease the authorities concerned for a free alternative to the fiat currency. However, we have good perspectives on the management of Telegram to this eventuality, as it has faced before problems with Gram, and has been solved in large part. For example, we saw in the obligation to cancel the public phase of its ICO, while a number of entities seek to sell tokens GRAM of unofficial way, many times at higher prices. You can also consider a victory against China, whose Central Bank announced the launch of their digital currency in November of this year. The following two tabs change content below.
