In a dramatic turn of events, the meme coin Resistance Dog (REDO) has seen a meteoric rise in its market value, driven by its recent adoption as the official avatar for Toncoin.
This development comes amid a backdrop of political and legal turmoil involving Pavel Durov, the founder of Telegram and a key figure behind the Ton blockchain who was arrested in Paris, France.
Why Toncoin adopted the Resistance Dog avatarThe decision to replace Toncoin’s previous logo with the ‘Resistance Dog’ avatar is in support of the “DigitalResistance” movement that is part of a broader movement supporting Durov’s cause of seeking to address issues of digital freedom and resistance against perceived injustices.
Durov was detained during a cybercrime probe related to accusations of inadequate collaboration with law enforcement on content moderation issues.
