In the initial phase, from late October to mid-December, user engagement remained relatively steady, with no major spikes.<\/p>\n<p>However, the timeframe from late December to mid-March indicated a gradual rise, signaling a burgeoning interest among users.<\/p>\n<p>From mid-March to late April, there was a sharp spike in daily active addresses, potentially fueled by price surges and intensified market attention. The period from May to early July exhibited fluctuations with short-lived peaks.<\/p>\n<p>Another substantial surge was noted from late August to early October, marking the year&#8217;s peak activity levels.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, the user engagement has recently declined, stabilizing at 1.58 million\u2014albeit higher than previous levels.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Price Movements and Ownership Concentration<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>At the time of reporting, TON was trading at $5.26, representing a decrease of -0.34% in the past 24 hours and an increase of 2.11% over the last week. The trading volume stands at $299.64 million, with an approximate total market capitalization of $13.32 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Of note, a significant 91% of the token&#8217;s supply is in the hands of large holders, indicating a notable level of centralization.<\/p>\n<p>While 73% of holders are experiencing losses and only 15% are in profit, the market sentiment remains cautious. The low price correlation with Bitcoin (at 0.12) suggests that TON&#8217;s movements are not heavily swayed by Bitcoin&#8217;s price trends.<\/p>\n<p>Transactions exceeding $100,000 over the past week totaled $42.01 billion, but there was a net exchange outflow of $8.81 million, indicating more TON leaving exchanges than entering.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Analysis of On-chain Metrics<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>On-chain metrics for TON predominantly exhibit a bearish sentiment. Three bearish signals include: &#8220;In the Money&#8221; (-0.14), reflective of low profitability among holders; concentration (-0.04), hinting at centralization; and large transactions (-0.23), indicating reduced activity in big-money movements.<\/p>\n<p>However, the sole bullish signal is net network growth (+2.97%), suggesting possible user expansion despite the current downtrends.<\/p>\n<p>Futures open interest has seen fluctuations, with Coinglass data showing a peak above $300 million in early August, which has now decreased to $214.18 million, a 1.99% drop in recent trading.<\/p>\n<p>While current metrics indicate a cooling phase, historical data suggests that TON&#8217;s user base could rapidly expand during periods of renewed interest or significant market developments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The TON network has witnessed a significant decrease in its daily active users, plummeting from a peak of over 5 million to 1.58 million, as reported by data from IntoTheBlock.
