TON Foundation Shakes Up Leadership: MoonPay Co-Founder Maximilian Crown Takes CEO Reins
Blockchain’s sleeping giant wakes up swinging—TON just poached MoonPay’s co-founder to steer its next chapter. Crown’s crypto-payments pedigree could turbocharge adoption... or prove another case of ’blockchain musical chairs’ where execs reshuffle while retail bags keep getting heavier.
Key details:
- Maximilian Crown built MoonPay into a fiat-crypto gateway processing billions
- TON’s dormant potential meets Web3’s most aggressive bizdev mind
- Move signals intent to dominate payments—just as regulators start sharpening their knives
One thing’s certain: When a foundation sitting on Telegram’s abandoned blockchain suddenly gets serious, the industry pays attention. Whether this accelerates real utility or just another hype cycle? That’ll cost extra.
