| Toncoin (TON) has bounced back after a nearly five-hour blockchain outage . The disruption, linked in part to the DOGS airdrop that drew attention to Pavel Durov's arrest, didn't have a major impact on TON. However, on August 28, the TON blockchain experienced a second outage, likely caused by the heavy demand for DOGS token minting. | In light of the situation, we've removed all service fees for TON and NOT until September 3.
