Telegram Unveils ‘Cocoon’ Network to Challenge AWS — Is TON Coin Poised for a Breakout?

Jakarta, Pintu News – The Telegram ecosystem has officially entered the AI infrastructure fray. Telegram founder Pavel Durov confirmed on Sunday that Cocoon, a decentralized network for secret computing, has now officially launched.

This launch effectively makes the messaging platform a global GPU power broker, challenging centralized players such as Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure.

‘Sovereign AI’ Architecture

Cocoon operates as a Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN), which is a decentralized physical infrastructure network.

It connects developers who need AI computing with users who have idle GPUs. Most importantly, Cocoon solves the “privacy gap” that has been a challenge in decentralized AI.

By utilizing Intel Trust Domain Extensions (TDX), Cocoon creates a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) directly at the hardware level. This ensures that the node operator (the person leasing the GPU) cannot see the data being processed.

Strategic Drives for the TON Ecosystem

Telegram will be the initial source of demand for Cocoon, providing a solid foundation for the network’s expansion.

Pavel Durov stated that Telegram is committed to supporting early growth as GPU supply increases and more developers adopt this discreet computing model.

This creates a cycle where the utility of private AI within Telegram can drive TON usage, while the broader ecosystem moves towards a decentralized digital economy.

TON is already the backbone of many financial features on Telegram, from creator incentives to ad payments. The arrival of Cocoon adds a new layer to this foundation, bringing privacy-first tools that developers can integrate into future apps on the network.

TON Price Analysis: Toward $2?

The new utility functions for TON have not been able to push the token price up, which is currently trading at around $1.49 after a sharp 35% drop in the past month.

The price chart shows a downward channel pattern that has limited TON’s movement since mid-2024, with the price now approaching the lower boundary of the pattern.

On the technical side:

• The MACD is below the signal line, and the histogram remains in the negative area.
• The RSI is close to 28, signaling an oversold condition.
• The Balance of Power is also in negative territory, indicating the dominance of selling pressure.

If the bearish pressure persists, the price is likely to resume its decline towards the support area around $1.26. If the selling pressure gets stronger, a deeper drop to the $1 level could occur.

However, if there is a bounce from the oversold condition, the potential upside target is around $2, which is the middle area of the descending channel pattern.
