🏆 We’ve distributed $75,000 among the best designers who imagined a new way to communicate — Telegram Nodes (see here).
⚖ I joined the judging process and spent 10+ hours reviewing thousands of designs from nearly 200 participants. Great work! 👏
🔜 We’ve now invited the 19 winners to suggest improvements to existing Telegram features.
⭐️ We’re looking for people who — like us — have a burning desire to make Telegram better every day, with no exceptions.

🥖 The French government is accusing X and Elon Musk of the very things the French government itself is doing:
- Illegally collecting personal data
- Processing personal data without proper security
- Extracting data from automated systems
- Violating the secrecy of electronic communications
The French government is panicking. They know a major political shift in 2027 will expose their misdeeds. So they’re trying to silence free speech platforms under whatever pretext they think they can get away with.✊ The free world should stand with Elon and X against this immoral assault by the French state. Telegram supports our brothers and sisters from X in their fight for our freedoms.

French governance is strikingly wasteful: the state hasn’t run a single budget surplus in over half a century. Imagine a company with zero profitable years for 50+ years. France survives on borrowed money and the rapidly fading prestige of its colonial past.

New Options in poll ( channels) - Restrict to subscribers - Limit by country
📊 Channel admins can now run massive polls limited to subscribers or specific countries — making fake-vote inflation much harder.
Now people in places like Russia can see real results. For example, only 5% support internet restrictions — not 52%, as old rigged polls claimed😏

@ohuenko, creative director of Telegram, trolls goyims users with the new feature. He posted a poll asking if a teddy bear🧸 in Resistance Dog🎁 style is needed. The joke is that the poll is restricted, and… 🇰🇵 only users with a North Korea (+850) number can vote.
Kim Jong Un, please click 'Yes'.

13-Year-Old Finds TON Blockchain Bug with Claude AI, Earns $4,000 Bounty
A 13-year-old researcher known as "Investor" discovered a critical vulnerability in TON Core using Anthropic’s Claude Code AI and received a $4,000 bug bounty.
The TON team confirmed the payout, noting that while AI helps surface many bugs, significant manual validation is still required. They praised the valid report regardless of the finder’s age or method.

🛠 Developing for TON just became 10x faster. The new toolchain makes smart contracts easy to create, test, and deploy.
Most importantly, fully AI-ready.
It replaces TON’s fragmented tooling stack with one developer flow. Start building!

🤖 At first, there was a #bug where forwarding messages from a PM sent by a bot with guest mode was attributed to your interlocutor — not a bot. You can imagine that a guy created his own bot where by writing "
@yourbot" (without quotes) he sent a certain word specified in the script. 🔹 Now guest mode does not work in support, and the bug has been fixed — the authorship of forwarded messages is assigned correctly.Source: 💌💌💌

New "Do not restrict boosters" option Admins can Choose how many boosts a user must give to the group to bypass restrictions on sending messages. Source : 💌💌💌
#tip: ⛈ Keep in mind that the last two permissions — editing tags and sending reactions — will not be unblocked after you remove restrictions for boosts. This refers to groups with the "Do not restrict boosters" option enabled.
🙅 When trying to edit yourself a tag, it returns an error, and cloud with reactions simply does not appear. Verified by us.
