After many users raised concerns about withdrawals, a Telegram mini-app called TON Turbo began scrubbing its digital footprint.

TON Turbo, a project built atop The Open Network, offers users so-called Toncoin (TON) mining rigs to generate profits by depositing crypto via a Telegram chat box. The mining rigs promised nearly doubled returns on the initial capital, with an opportunity to earn TON and prominent memecoin Shiba Inu (SHIB).

However, several aspiring miners using the platform reported withdrawal difficulties. Replies on the project’s Telegram channel suggested its deposit mechanism was a one-way corridor.

Additionally, TON is a proof-of-stake blockchain where validators are the key network contributors. Mining typically refers to proof-of-work networks like Bitcoin, which relies on participants called miners to validate transactions and discover new coins.

Once users sent crypto to the virtual mining rig, it seemingly churned profits over time, but withdrawing rewards was impossible. When users pointed out the issue, TON Turbo disabled customer support and locked its chat rooms.

The protocol closed replies between July 27 and Aug. 5, but the team continued to post promotional updates on X and Telegram.
