According to judicial oversight, the founder of Telegram is prohibited from leaving France until March; currently, the restriction has not been extended.

✉️ When will Durov be free

If I'm not mistaken and have properly sifted through the sources, then by March 26, there will be no restrictions applied to Durov.

🧐 What to expect regarding $TON

Of course, this question is the most relevant, as such events tend to significantly influence the charts. We can recall the pressure on the order book that $TON experienced at the time of the arrest. It’s unlikely that we can expect a completely mirrored effect, but we can expect a couple of green candles at the moment of the official statement, as hinted at somewhat metaphorically by the president of TF.

📊 Should I buy in anticipation of a pump?

On paper, this could sound like a plan, but there are many BUTs, starting with the fact that we have no guarantee of freeing Durov, and ending with the fact that the selling funds will continue to pour into the order book as soon as they feel even a minimal influx of liquidity.

👊 Opinion

Most likely, the fluctuations around $3 or lower will continue, regardless of whether the charges against Durov are dropped or not. Considering the upcoming large unlocks, the prices at which the funds were invested, the overall news background, and the current community sentiments, it seems to me that TF has no point in struggling to push the token up during the current crypto cycle.

I would try to catch a short, not a long, in case Durov's arrest is extended; the main thing is to grab this info among the first.
