Now every channel on Telegram can host FAIR giveaways.
Whatโs a giveaway?โ
Itโs when someone promises to give out prizes to random followers๐ ๐ ๐
Many giveaways on social media were scams. There was no way to prove the winner was chosen fairly๐
Until now. Telegram is the first social media platform to natively support giveaways with guaranteed random selection + prepaid prize funds๐ค

The Saved Messages feature launched by Telegram 7 years ago has since become an industry standard.
But now itโs time for the industry to move beyond the simple โsending a message to myselfโ concept we introduced years ago. This past week, we evolved Saved Messages into an advanced yet easy-to-use Bookmarks/Favorites/Notes service, with new options to organize and view saved content.
This comes on top of many other features we launched this past month. Speaking of which, I personally love the animation of the new one-time voice and video messages โ it is pure art. Enjoy!

Saved Messages 2.0, One-Time Voice Messages and 8 More Features
Throughout January, we added 10 new features to Telegram โ including upgraded Saved Messages, one-time voice and video messages that delete after playing, detailed read receipts that show what time your message was read, and much more.
Broadcast channels on Telegram generate 1 trillion views monthly. Currently, only 10% of these views are monetized with Telegram Ads โ a promotion tool designed with privacy in mind.
In March, the Telegram Ad Platform will officially open to all advertisers in nearly a hundred new countries. Channel owners in these countries will start receiving 50% of any revenue that Telegram makes from displaying ads in their channels.
To ensure ad payments and withdrawals are fast and secure, we will exclusively use the TON blockchain. Similar to our approach with Telegram usernames on Fragment, we will sell ads and share revenue with channel owners in Toncoin. This will create a virtuous circle, in which content creators will be able to either cash out their Toncoins โ or reinvest them in promoting and upgrading their channels

After my last post, some people expressed concern that, as a result of ad sales exclusively for TON, Telegram may end up holding an unhealthy share of Toncoin, which will be too concentrated for a decentralized ecosystem. We acknowledge these concerns and have come up with a solution.
To limit Telegramโs share of TON at โ10% of the supply, weโll be selling the upcoming surplus of our TON holdings to long-term investors โ under 1-4 years lockup and vesting plan, but at a discount to the market price. This way free-floating TON will get locked up, stabilizing the ecosystem and reducing volatility.
