Telegram Dives into Blockchain and NFTs with Virtual Gifts and TON Blockchain Integration
Telegram, the renowned messaging platform, is delving into the blockchain and NFT realm with thrilling new features. It has introduced 'Gifts', animated images that users can transmit as virtual presents, and plans to transform these into non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on its proprietary TON blockchain in the near future. This move is anticipated to draw both social media users and cryptocurrency enthusiasts.
Telegram's Gifts can be exhibited on recipients' profiles or exchanged for Stars, the platform's in-app currency. In a boost to its economy, Stars can now also be employed to acquire gifts. The integration of NFTs could contribute to rejuvenating the market, which has encountered a substantial downturn. Users will be able to auction and trade NFTs derived from gifts on secondary markets outside of Telegram.
The TON blockchain is fostering community involvement through the 'Earn Quest Notcoin' program, offering rewards in NOT coins. Telegram's foray into digital collectibles and blockchain technology is likely to attract a broader user base.
Telegram's incursion into NFTs and blockchain technology is poised to revolutionize its platform and the digital collectibles market. The conversion of virtual gifts into NFTs in the near future, along with the 'Earn Quest Notcoin' program, heralds a new era for the messaging behemoth and its users.
