The token traded as one of the top gainers in the past 24 hours, with daily volume rising 216% to over $514 million.<\/p>\n<p>Durov\u2019s latest legal-related news largely contributed to this scenario.<\/p>\n<h2>Telegram founder Durov allowed to travel to Dubai<\/h2>\n<p>Durov, indicted in Paris for complicity in criminal activities linked to his encrypted messaging platform, left Le Bourget Airport near Paris on Saturday. According to sources cited by a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rfi.fr\/fr\/en-bref\/20250315-le-fondateur-de-telegram-pavel-durov-a-quitt%C3%A9-temporairement-la-france-pour-duba%C3%AF\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">local news outlet<\/a>, authorities had returned Durov\u2019s passport.<\/p>\n<p>The TON Foundation also confirmed the development, with permission granting Durov\u2019s freedom to leave at his discretion.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what TON Foundation <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ton_blockchain\/status\/1900923518281543959\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wrote on X<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTON Foundation is delighted to learn that Pavel Durov\u2019s passport has been returned to him by French authorities, granting him the freedom to leave the country at his discretion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Per the reports, the investigating judge overseeing Durov\u2019s case accepted the request to modify the Telegram founder\u2019s\u00a0 judicial supervision. The court authorised Durov to exit France for \u201cseveral weeks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Durov\u2019s departure to Dubai, where Telegram is headquartered, follows months of <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/telegram-founder-pavel-durov-taken-to-court-in-france\/\">stringent judicial oversight<\/a>. This\u00a0 includes a 5-million-euro bail, bi-weekly police check-ins, and a ban on leaving French territory. The Telegram founder has been in France since his <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/telegram-ceos-arrest-is-very-concerning-tether-ceo-says\/\">arrest<\/a> in August 2024.<\/p>\n<p>The charges against him stem from allegations that Telegram has been used to facilitate organized crime, a claim Durov has contested, promising to enhance the platform\u2019s moderation efforts.<\/p>\n<p>TON\u2019s upside comes after a broader market dip that saw Bitcoin (BTC) break under $80k. The top crypto trades above $84k though. The Toncoin price is seeing volatility similar to what happened in August when French authorities apprehended Durove.<\/p>\n<p>While the altcoin remains well below the all-time high of $8.20 reached in June 2024, the nearly 20% uptick is great news for investors.<\/p>\n<p>However, Durov is still expected to return to France after several weeks. In this case, the altcoin may experience notable volatility. Traders may need to be keen on overall crypto market conditions.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/toncoin-soars-after-france-returns-telegram-founders-passport\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : CoinJournal: Latest Crypto News, Altcoin News and Cryptocurrency Comparison ) Toncoin price surged more than 18% after Telegram founder Pavel Durov got approval to leave France.
