πŸ‡°πŸ‡¬ I loved the people and nature of Kyrgyzstan β€” a real hidden gem of Central Asia. The weather was great, and there were no mosquitoes, so we hiked and rode horses a lot in the mountains and around the Issyk-Kul lake. I noticed that Kyrgyzstan is developing very fast, adding valuable infrastructure across the country πŸš€

✊🏽 More than half of the country’s population uses Telegram monthly, and in the last four months alone, Telegram's popularity grew by 30%. While there, we met with local telecom leaders and discussed ways to improve the experience of Kyrgyz Telegram users.

Thank you, Kyrgyzstan β€” we will be back soon. Your hospitality inspires me for my future trips around beautiful Central Asia β€οΈπŸ’›
πŸ†’ The TapSwap mini app has taken Telegram by storm and now has 56 million users 😲

This crazy popularity was achieved in just a few months without any marketing 😎

πŸ’ͺ The audience of TapSwap alone is larger than that of all legacy blockchain-based projects combined. TapSwap’s team is wisely relying on Telegram for distribution and on TON to mint its upcoming token πŸ“±

πŸ”ΌTapSwap is an inspiring success story for all developers building apps on Telegram and TON. Well done – and Godspeed! ⏩

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Ώ This week I visited Uzbekistan – and thoroughly enjoyed it πŸ‘

❀️ Uzbekistan loves Telegram: over 70% of the country’s 37 million people is on Telegram and their entire economy is run on our platform (every business in the country has a Telegram bot or channel). We are proud of this popularity and we love Uzbekistan back ❀️

✨During my trip to Uzbekistan I was amazed by the modern infrastructure of quickly developing Tashkent, the mountainous landscapes of Eastern Uzbekistan, and the rich history of Buhara and Samarkand πŸ’–

πŸ„β€β™‚οΈ I’ve met lots of young and talented people with good hearts. I am grateful for the warm welcome and hope to stay more in the sunny Tashkent later this year 😎

🍷 The recent Telegram update revolutionizes how people interact with mini apps. Now people can collapse apps and switch between them. In the future, this new bottom bar will also store web pages and other content for later reading.

πŸ’« This update also introduces the ability for channel owners to publish paid photos and videos, which users can buy with Stars. Like mini app developers, channel owners can convert the Stars they collect into Toncoin, with virtually no commission from Telegram.

#️⃣ The newest version of Telegram also includes other features like hashtag and location search for public Stories. Check out the full announcement for more details!
