Yet as of September 4, 2026, the TEL token traded around $0.00177, roughly 97% below its record, according to market data. Where the project stands is best captured by that gap between regulatory progress and price.

The data recorded on blockchains often gives the impression of providing an accurate reading of financial flows. However, a study by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) shows that certain metrics can vary depending on the method used.

For Tapiero, several macroeconomic signals marked a possible bottom, while a new driver could come from artificial intelligence agents and their blockchain transactions in the long term.

A failure would strongly compromise the adoption of the bill before the end of 2026.
