Toncoin Primed for Explosive Breakout: Can TON Shatter the $4.65 Barrier This Week?

Toncoin bulls are charging as TON approaches critical resistance levels that could define its next major move.

The $4.65 Resistance Wall

Traders are watching the $4.65 level like hawks—break this ceiling and Toncoin could rocket toward new highs. The pattern suggests accumulation beneath this psychological barrier, with whales positioning for what comes next.

Market Momentum Building

Volume spikes and technical indicators align for potential upward movement. Unlike traditional finance where bankers would already be shorting this rally, crypto markets move at lightning speed—leaving institutional dinosaurs in the dust.

Will Toncoin deliver the breakout everyone's waiting for, or is this just another tease before the inevitable correction that makes traders question their life choices?

Nuclear scoreboard: fact vs. fiction

Livingston highlights a striking disparity. China is currently building 16 nuclear power plants, while the United States has zero. He’s not far off with his numbers. As of late 2025, China has about 30 reactors under construction, with repeated yearly approval for more, making up nearly half the world’s new builds.

Some analysts say China aims to reach 65 gigawatts of nuclear capacity by the end of this year and 200 gigawatts by 2040 (roughly a tenfold growth).

By contrast, the U.S. completed its Vogtle 3 and 4 reactors after lengthy delays and cost overruns. Currently, there are no brand-new large-scale nuclear projects at the ground-breaking stage.

Yet, this isn’t the whole picture. For the first time in years, there are new plans for U.S. nuclear. Following recent executive orders and policy reforms, Westinghouse announced intentions to construct 10 big reactors by 2030. Work is expected to begin in the next few years.

However, regulatory hurdles, public skepticism, and the sheer complexity of nuclear buildouts mean execution is far from guaranteed, and actual new construction is not yet underway.

Energy: the real AI bottleneck?

Livingston poses an important question: Are we underestimating the role of pure energy in AI progress? Model training and inference have become ravenous for electricity.

Training frontier models like GPT-4 requires tens of megawatts, and data-center power demand in the U.S. is projected to more than double over the next decade (as much as 78 gigawatts by 2035).

Global data center energy consumption hit 415 terawatt-hours in 2024, forecast to double by 2030, with AI accounting for a growing share. So, in theory, nations that can deploy the most steady, carbon-free power will indeed have an advantage in the AI race.

China’s approach to industrial policy is direct, top-down, and aggressive. It has allowed it to ramp up nuclear construction rapidly, whereas American utilities have relied more on upgrades, license extensions, and slow, market-based activity.

But while China is advancing fast, the U.S. is also focused on improving efficiency and leveraging new technologies such as Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and renewables to supplement its base.

Is the AI race already over?

Has “the funeral already happened,” as Livingston claims? The answer seems less definitive. China’s nuclear expansion is real and impressive, and its linkage to AI infrastructure is not far-fetched. AI does critically depend on continuous, affordable power.

However, U.S. leaders and companies are not exactly standing still. New projects, policy moves, and increased investment in both energy and AI are picking up, but so far, they are not matching China’s scale or speed.

The American advantage in foundational AI research, chip design, cloud infrastructure, and venture funding remains significant. Even if data-center power becomes a constraint, innovation in efficiency, smart grids, and distributed computation could narrow the gap.

Notably, “energy wars” may become as important as software or data, but the outcome will depend on much more than the number of nuclear plants alone. Livingston’s arguments highlight an overlooked aspect of the global tech struggle, but declare the funeral premature. The scoreboard is changing, but the AI race isn’t over yet.
