Telegram developers are testing a new feature where TON can be integrated directly into the app for payments. If introduced, it would enable Telegram Premium users to pay for their subscriptions with TON. This would provide a more direct and efficient manner of making payments.

This could help increase Telegram’s reach even further and allow more people to take advantage of this cryptocurrency. This is likely to further increase the already extensive network of users who have already been leveraging cryptocurrency to achieve their financial goals. Additionally, by introducing TON, Telegram will be able to tap into the huge ecosystem of digital currency users, giving them a greater ability to capture user data that can be used to better serve them.

Rumors say this feature is only limited to Premium users, who have been paying for the subscription service with fiat currency. While it may be surprising to see a major messaging platform actively embracing digital currencies, it’s ultimately this willingness to explore new technologies that sets Telegram apart from its competitors.

It is expected that this new feature will be available in the near future and will help Telegram differentiate itself even further from competitors, as well as provide a more frictionless way for users to pay for their Premium subscriptions. With TON being a blockchain-based currency, it will also help to ensure that all transactions are secure, reliable, and convenient.

  • This month, Telegram has announced a new feature allowing users to send and receive USDT (Tether) through the app. To send USDT to another individual, Telegram users need to add a bot called “@wallet” to the attachments menu. The feature makes it easy for traditional users to buy and send crypto, and the user experience is intuitive and understandable.
