Telegram will have a MASSIVE bull run
Pavel @Durov is at the helm & has made some amazing changes since taking over
1B+ people now have access to a the-open-network:native wallet
@Telegram is #1 validator on TON
Reminds me of $SOL back in 2022
Slowly at first then all at once
I think people are underestimating what's changing inside @Telegram.
#Money is the update that caught my attention. But after spending a few days exploring it, I think the bigger story is what it could unlock across the ecosystem.
Three things stand out:
1. Money isn't launching into an empty ecosystem.
Telegram already has communities, channels, bots and Mini Apps. Adding a native wallet to that environment is very different from launching another standalone payments app.
2. AI makes software cheaper to build. It doesn't make an existing community easy to copy.
When features become easier to replicate, distribution matters more. Small teams can build more capable products, while Telegram already has places where those products can find users.
That's why I think AI could strengthen Telegram's position, not just make its own development faster.
3. Receiving money is only the beginning.
Say someone earns a reward through a Telegram community. Can they claim it, use it, or send it to someone else without another round of apps, accounts and wallet setup?
That's the experience I want to see builders make possible. Not just a transfer, but something useful to do afterward.
I'm not saying all of this works seamlessly today. I'm saying Telegram's recent updates deserve more attention than they're getting.
#Telegram $GRAM
all i see on here are people complaining relentlessly on how the price of $GRAM is low, price won't go up, MTONGA is slow, blah blah blah
if you are complaining, you are stupid, ignorant, or both
GRAM is down to 1.38, and hasn't moved much, but i am up over $500k in unrealized profit in REDO alone in the past 2-3 days, while crypto is stagnant
i have been screaming to buy the resistance-dog:native DOG NFT Collection for almost 6-8 months now, in every single space and all over telegram
stop complaining, start trading and selling the NFTs on Telegram, and stop being stupid
it's as simple as stalking https://t.co/0fn2VeekzK and https://t.co/MIfArxzxOA, and buying the floor gift of REDO NFTs, and setting a higher price.
rinse and repeat, either with floor price redo, or monochrome gifts
use https://t.co/991KDK9UHP in order to stalk "all redo gifts on mexican pink background" for example, or "all vampire model redo" in order to discover price arbitrage
if there is 1 vampire redo listed for 850 gram while the overall floor price of redo is sitting at 700 gram, and there are 6 vampire redo listed for sale at 1000 gram, simply buy the 700 gram one and set to 950-1000 range
rinse and repeat
it's so easy a monkey could do it
Nasdaq-listed TON Strategy Company held about 230.5M Gram at June 30, with 229.9M staked, about 35% of all Gram staked on TON. Its Q2 revenue, all from staking, was $15.0M, up from $3.0M in Q1.
@ton_blockchain
We are waiting for the customization of Gram Wallet!
Adele Toberg shared the concept of customization of the card in the wallet, which is already being prepared and fully tested.
It looks interesting, especially if the gifts can be used directly from the Telegram profile.

TON doesn’t need more hype. It needs the people building it to finally get the support and attention they deserve.
Dear @durov, your voice can make a real difference for TON.
Telegram already has millions of users. Imagine what could happen if more of them were encouraged to explore TON, support builders, use real products, and become active members of the ecosystem.
Games can attract attention, but utility, liquidity, and long-term support are what turn attention into a sustainable ecosystem, that's why we need Memecoins to play the Role.
@telegram can do more. @ton_blockchain deserves that commitment.
And we’ve seen initiatives like @Keeper_wallet supporting TON memecoins through buybacks. These are the kinds of efforts that show how projects within the ecosystem can contribute to its growth.
But we also need to talk about the people.
People like @s0meone_u_know, @ZenithTON, @ Azara0x, and @ TonyVibeOnTON @1000x_PCM , alongside many others, have contributed to the ecosystem in their own ways.
And we cannot overlook the African community. People like @0xdamx, @tommyunchain, @Dev_Mustee, and @Taofiq, among many others, have continued showing up, creating, promoting, and pushing TON forward.
These people deserve more than a passing mention. They deserve recognition, visibility, and an ecosystem that supports the same people helping it grow.
The community has been putting in the work. Builders are creating. Supporters are spreading the word. People are giving their time and energy because they believe in TON.
Now, we need stronger backing from Telegram, more visibility from its leadership, and real opportunities for the people contributing every day.
Durov, it’s time to listen to the community.
TON has the people. TON has the builders. TON has the potential.
Let’s give the ecosystem the support it needs to turn that potential into something bigger. 💎🤝
i just gambled and burned $10,000 USD worth of @telegram's official $REDO NFT collection with their gift crafting feature!!
ts way too addicting

On Oct 2 a TRON user lost control of 5,102,539 TRX (~$1.7M). It took the attacker a month of social engineering and one command pasted into a terminal.
The funds are still on the victim's address, but he can't use them anymore. The attacker replaced the keys that control the account and is now waiting for the 14-day unstaking period to end on Oct 16 at 14:16 UTC.
How it started:
It started on Sep 1 with a Telegram message from an old contact from the mining hosting business. Their chat went back to 2021, so nothing looked off. The contact's account was most likely hacked.
After almost 5 years of silence he wrote "Long time no talk, how are you?" He sent a couple of friendly messages without asking for anything and then went quiet until Sep 28.
Next, on Sep 28 he apologized for the long silence, suggested a call and sent a link to a Google Calendar booking page for a "30 min chat".
On Oct 2 the victim asked to call a bit earlier and suggested Yandex Telemost. The attacker said he would send his own meeting link. It looked like https://t.co/zWBMjdSLFd.
On the phone the link opened a fake page saying the organizer didn't allow mobile access. "Try again on your laptop." So the victim moved to his laptop, where his wallet was.
On the laptop the page got stuck on "Joining the meeting...". The attacker wrote that Teams was having some issues. When the victim asked to switch to Yandex, he refused and said his partners were already working in Teams.
Around the same time the fake page showed a notice that the TeamsFx SDK had been deprecated, with a Copy button and instructions to press Win+R, type cmd, paste and hit Enter.
In the chat the attacker pushed the same thing. He asked "Did you update the SDK yet?", said he once had the same problem and an SDK update fixed it, and told him to paste the update command into the terminal. This is a ClickFix attack.
At first it didn't work because the victim kept pasting the command into the Win+R window and getting an error. The attacker sent screenshots showing where to find the terminal and wrote "Click here and type terminal". The command ran between 13:09 and 13:12 UTC, and the victim replied "seems to have worked".
After that the attacker kept him talking. He said he couldn't find him in the meeting, offered to move the call by a few hours and chatted about miners and regulation until 13:32 UTC. Then he went quiet.
About 40 minutes later things started happening on-chain.
At 14:13:24 UTC an AccountPermissionUpdate signed with the victim's key moved the owner and active permissions to the attacker's key. Since then the victim can't sign any transaction from his own address.
The attacker then revoked all delegated energy and unstaked the whole stake. Unstaked TRX can only be withdrawn after 14 days, so he has to wait.
555,688 TRX from Oct 16, 14:16:00 UTC
4,546,851 TRX from Oct 16, 15:13:30 UTC
Until then the 5.1M TRX stays on the victim's address and neither of them can move it.
The attacker also made a mistake. Changing permissions costs 100 TRX and the victim's address was about 28 TRX short. So 51 seconds before the takeover he sent 87 TRX there from another wallet, its whole balance. The two transactions were signed 42 seconds apart, which means whoever did the takeover also had the key to that wallet.
That wallet isn't new. It has been in use since April. It received payments and sent funds to exchanges that do KYC, and it's connected to a group of wallets active since 2020. He paid for the attack from a wallet with a history.
Victim's address, now controlled by the attacker:
TYYDe2Ca7fQapzZg2TZMCBXc3Xb4EbB3EZ
Attacker's key:
TEdNZQAw44xkw9b7KWpfL5SHdB3aLGWt6p
Takeover tx:
c608edc5b3ddfd6a15f82715edb3cb750aabb362a080d990cddfb5994f41ee05
If you run an exchange, swap service, bridge or OTC desk on TRON, please flag these.
A few more details about the attacker.
- The fake domain teans-lives[.]com was registered on Oct 1 at 05:53 UTC, about 31 hours before he sent the call link. It's on clientHold now.
- The fake Teams page with the "TeamsFx SDK" story is the same lure used in a campaign that was publicly linked to the North Korean group UNC1069 in April. This doesn't mean it's them, the lure is just the same.
To the attacker. You spent a month earning trust and now you're waiting for the unlock. You also paid for the takeover from a wallet with a history.
The whole chat, every screenshot you sent, your domain and every on-chain step are documented. The address is flagged in AML screening and shared with exchanges, swap services and bridges.
Red flags:
- an old contact suddenly comes back and wants a call
- the other side refuses your meeting link and insists on theirs
- a meeting page says mobile isn't supported and asks you to switch to a laptop
- any page asks you to paste a command into a terminal or Win+R
If you already ran something like this, assume the device is compromised and move funds from a clean one right away. In this case the attacker needed about an hour.
Tonstakers, TON's largest liquid staking protocol, holds a record 138.07M Gram, up 15.87% in the past 90 days. That is triple the 45.92M Gram it held on January 1.
