The long-awaited crypto token sale from the Russian messaging platform Telegram has hit a wall in the form of the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The regulator has filed an emergency action and received a restraining order for the $1.7 billion planned ICO.

I don't think it'll face any issues with the SEC or the US government, it's way to hard to stunt the growth of them now, especially after they've already raised almost 2 billion in funding. They are unstoppable now.

I think we'll see them quickly deal with this by the end of the year and we'll be able to see them move forward, I'd like to see how they intergrate crypto payments in their messaging app.
