Among TON's investors were Russians David Yakobashvili, who invested US$10 million, and oligarch Roman Abramovich.

The SEC found that one of TON's largest investors (US$65.3 million) was Space Investments, a firm associated with Russian Sergei Azatyan's InVenture Partners company.

Russian Forbes noted that the founder of Bank 131, Dmitry Yeremeev, also invested in Telegram.
