🥳 After 11 years, Telegram is no longer losing money

In 2024, Telegram messenger made strides in monetization, updates, and integration with the TON blockchain.

According to its founder, Pavel Durov, for the first time in three years since the beginning of monetization, the company became profitable. The number of Telegram Premium subscribers tripled, surpassing 12 million.

Telegram's total revenue in 2024 exceeded $1 billion, and by the end of the year, the company holds more than $500 million in cash reserves, not including crypto assets.

Its monetization campaign began in 2021 with the launch of an advertising platform for channels. This allowed the company to cover server and traffic costs.

In April 2024, at the TOKEN2049 conference, Pavel Durov announced the introduction of NFT stickers, allowing users to buy and own unique digital items.

The creators of these stickers receive 95% of the profit from their sales, with payments made in TON cryptocurrency.

As the collaboration between Telegram and the TON blockchain is deepening, users enjoy new opportunities to interact with cryptocurrencies and decentralized applications. It is driving the mass adoption of Web3 technologies, offering millions of users access to decentralized services directly through the messenger.

These achievements highlight Telegram's commitment to financial stability, independence, and respect for users' rights, opening new horizons for the platform and its community.
