TON Foundation: Meme tokens promoted by intern were unofficial actions, and their employment has been terminated
ChainCatcher News, TON Foundation announced that it has terminated the position of an intern due to the intern promoting a self-created meme token on their personal social media account.
The intern promoted a token launched on the pump.fun platform via their personal X account displaying the TON badge, and discussed the future plans of the token through live streaming. However, all related content was later deleted and the project was abandoned.
The TON Foundation emphasized that this behavior was not initiated, approved, or endorsed by the Foundation. However, since the intern was responsible for managing the official TON X account and promoted the token on an account displaying the TON badge, this behavior caused confusion within the community and damaged trust.
The Foundation stated that such behavior does not align with its values and the standards required of those representing the TON Foundation, and therefore the intern's position was immediately terminated. The Foundation thanked community members for raising concerns in a timely manner and drawing attention to the issue, and reiterated that TON's development relies on accountability and transparency both internally and externally.

Despite the U.S. September PPI posting its largest monthly increase in four years and retail sales exceeding expectations—factors that should have bolstered the dollar—risk aversion triggered by a sell-off in AI-related assets led to a flight to U.S. Treasuries, pushing yields lower and weighing on the dollar. As a result, the dollar fell by 0.3% on Thursday. Analysts noted that the dollar is closely linked to AI capital expenditures, and if the market grows concerned about the peak of AI investments, the dollar would be the first to take a hit.
