After this vote, Telegram will therefore be able to commit the necessary funds to face the SEC in court in February 2020, the hearing with the SEC has been postponed by a judge at the request of Telegram.
The SEC, which is suing Telegram and its GRAM ICO deemed illegal for notably having accepted American investors without having registered its token sale with American authorities.

The GRAM cryptocurrency and the TON blockchain which were to be launched at the end of October but were stopped by the SEC’s lawsuit determined to stop the issuance of GRAM tokens.

Telegram has therefore chosen a vote by the majority of investors to decide on the future of the TON project and the cryptocurrency GRAM.
Voting postponed its launch to April 30, 2020 and allows Telegram to have $80 million that it said are needed for further operations.

Telegram raised $1,7 billion for the cryptocurrency GRAM and TON blockchain project.
