In fact, the company was the first to turn a theoretical solution into a working system with new transaction types and post-quantum signatures.

OKX explained: this is not a malfunction, but a network selection error — Bitcoin simply does not work on the TON network.
The story has already reached regulators and once again shows: in crypto, it's important to check every detail before sending.
