🩵 Telegram now has a Rich Text Editor.

🏳️ Gram Wallet in Telegram is ready and is now accessible to a select group of users. 🤩 We'll be gradually rolling it out to our billion+ users over the next couple of weeks. ⚡️ Thanks to the validators who approved the smart contract that powers it, future upgrades of the wallet won't require painful migrations. This is just one of the innovations we've built to make non-custodial wallets usable ✨

A high-school student just made $20,000 from a Telegram Gift. Jonathan He, an IOI gold medalist ranked #7 in the world, sold his Algorithm Cup — an NFT we gave to the top young coders this month — for 💎 15,000 Grams. Happy for him. It's a meaningful sum for someone still in school, and I suspect a small fraction of what he'll go on to build. 20 years ago, $20K was enough for me to launch my first company. Within months, it had reached 1M users and raised $12M at a $60M valuation. 💸 I hope some of this year's winners put their Grams to similar use! 📈

💸 In just one month, Telegram has awarded over $2,222,000 to some of the brightest minds on our planet. 🎨 This week alone we distributed $222,000 among the winners of our two latest competitions — the Design Contest and the Digital Freedom Contest. On top of that, over the past month we awarded prizes worth more than $2 million to the winners of the 2026 International Olympiads in Informatics and AI. We're proud to support the best! 🎁

🤝 Telegram has become the sponsor of Codeforces — the largest competitive programming platform in the world. ⚡CodeForces organizes over 100 coding contests every year and has 4 million contestants signed up. 🌱 Since 2010, I've supported Codeforces through the companies I started. 🆙 But this year will be special. Its founder Mike wants to bring Codeforces to the next level — and we'll be happy to help him do that 🤝
