The post TON blockchain risks fading into obscurity after a series of poor decisions appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
DefiLlama on-chain data has revealed a dwindling in multiple metrics on the TON blockchain, raising speculations that the blockchain and some of its decisions are risking its hold in the crypto and blockchain industry.
