• The significant cash inflows to the TON network from institutional investors will bolster bullish sentiment.

• The TON/USD pair has not yet broken out of crucial resistance levels to kickstart a fresh bull rally.

The Open Network (TON) has emerged as a top contender in the highly anticipated 2025 crypto altseason. Toncoin (TON), a large-cap altcoin with a fully diluted valuation of about $16 billion and a 24-hour average trading volume of around $114 million, has experienced low bearish sentiment in the recent past, signaling a potential momentum shift. 

The vast integration of the TON ecosystem with the Telegram messaging platform has helped attract new customers. Furthermore, TON price has depicted extremely small price correlation with Bitcoin (BTC) price action, thus acting as a reliable alternative altcoin. 

Most importantly, only 20 percent of TON coin holders are currently in profit signaling a high chance of bullish sentiment ahead.

Midterm Expectations for TON

YTD, TON price has been trapped in a falling logarithmic trend, but the bottom has likely happened. In the daily timeframe, TON price has been forming a potential reversal pattern, characterized by double bottom coupled by a rising divergence of the Relative  Strength Index (RSI). 

Additionally, the daily MACD indicator has signaled bullish sentiment, especially after crossing above the zero line again.

In case of further bullish sentiment, TON price is well positioned to rally towards the next liquidity range between $4.6 and $7.2. However, TON price must consistently close above the daily logarithmic trend to invalidate further market correction.

Fundamental Outlook

The Open Network has grown to a robust blockchain ecosystem with more than 400 node validators who have over 700k staked assets. As of this writing the TON network had a total value locked of about $138 million and a stablecoins market cap of about $1 billion.

The TON network is expected to grow exponentially in the coming months, backed by top-tier web3 venture capitals and global liquidity expansion.
