New developments on the fate of Telegram and Toncoin founder Pavel Durov

As reported by Agence France-Presse (AFP), Toncoin and Telegram founder Pavel Durov has been granted permission by a French court to leave France and travel to Dubai. Sources said that a few days ago, the investigative judge approved a change in Durov's conditions of judicial detention, allowing him to leave the country "for several weeks." So far, Durov has not made any public statements on the matter. The TON Foundation, a key player in the decentralized blockchain community affiliated with Telegram, has confirmed that French authorities have returned Durov's passport, granting him the freedom to leave the country. This announcement marks a significant development in the ongoing situation around Durov. Telegram, which has nearly 1 billion users worldwide, is known as a platform dedicated to protecting freedom of communication and privacy. The TON Foundation has reaffirmed its support for Durov, underscoring his commitment to freedom of expression and online privacy. "Our commitment to these core principles remains unchanged. We believe blockchain is freedom, an innovative tool that can change the way we protect individual rights, and we are proud to be part of an ecosystem that allows people to communicate freely and securely," he said.
