The Telegram team has released an update<\/a> enabling channel owners on the messaging platform to receive 50% of their advertising revenue in the cryptocurrency Toncoin (TON).<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe chose The Open Network blockchain because it offers low fees, high speed, and holds the record for the number of transactions it can process per second,\u201d the announcement stated.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Channels with more than 1,000 subscribers are eligible for monetization. Funds will be withdrawn via the Fragment exchange without fees. <\/p>\n

In addition to withdrawals, authors can reinvest the received coins into their own advertising or other Telegram features such as gifts and collectible names. <\/p>\n

A second significant update is the ability to purchase targeting with TON:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cNow anyone can promote their bot or channel with a budget of just a few TON. When creating an ad on Telegram, you select specific channels where it will appear, giving you full control over the context.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The company clarified that displayed marketing materials are not based on user data but depend solely on the channel where they appear. <\/p>\n

Pavel Durov announced<\/a> the content creator payment feature at the end of February. He noted that channels generate 1 trillion views monthly, but only 10% are monetized using the Telegram Ads tool.<\/p>\n

TON reacted modestly to the news, gaining 1.6% over the day. At the time of writing, the coin is trading at $5.24. <\/p>\n

Earlier reports indicated that Telegram is preparing<\/a> for a potential IPO<\/span>. <\/p>\n

Back in February, Durov proposed<\/a> a solution to preserve TON’s decentralization. The Telegram team will be limited to owning 10% of the total token issuance, and advertising in the messenger will be sold for digital assets. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
