- AlphaTON plans a $100M Toncoin acquisition for a Telegram-based asset treasury.
- $38.2M raised privately and $35M secured from BitGo Prime as a loan.
- Ticker symbol to officially change to ATON on September 4.
AlphaTON Capital is making a bold entrance into the crypto world by announcing a $100 million acquisition plan for Toncoin. With its clear focus on Telegram’s growing blockchain ecosystem, this move positions AlphaTON as a strategic player in the digital asset space.
Backed by a combination of private investment and institutional support, AlphaTON is not just buying Toncoin—it’s building a Telegram-centric treasury that may shape future digital finance models within messaging platforms.
Backed by Big Funds and Big Players
To support its Toncoin acquisition, AlphaTON successfully raised $38.2 million through a private placement round. In addition, it secured a $35 million loan from BitGo Prime, a respected name in crypto custody and trading services. This dual source of funding demonstrates confidence in AlphaTON’s strategy and future outlook.
With these funds in hand, the company aims to create a dedicated treasury of Toncoin assets. This treasury will focus on digital opportunities linked with Telegram’s Open Network (TON), a blockchain designed to bring decentralized features into messaging, payments, and apps inside Telegram.
A New Identity: Ticker Change to ATON
Alongside its aggressive Toncoin acquisition, AlphaTON Capital is rebranding in the market. On September 4, its ticker symbol on Nasdaq will officially change to ATON. This new symbol aligns more closely with the TON blockchain and reflects the company’s long-term commitment to building on Telegram’s infrastructure.
The strategic pivot signals a larger trend: the integration of digital assets with existing platforms like Telegram is becoming more attractive to investors and companies looking for scalable ecosystems.
