💰 Ten days ago, a developer launched a mini app that has already generated $500,000 in revenue. He built it in just two days during the time off from his main job.

🖌 Without a team or marketing budget, he single-handedly implemented everything — design, concept, client-side code, and server-side code. Inspired by my own solo journey when I created VK in 2006, he tackled every element himself.

📈 Thanks to its brilliant concept and minimalist design, his mini app went viral. For the past ten days, it’s ranked in the Top 4 grossing mini apps on Telegram. This is the power of hard work, determination, and the Telegram mini app platform! #️⃣

⭐️ The @Major mini app is one of my favorite success stories in the Telegram ecosystem. Launched by @Roxman, a 27-year-old entrepreneur, Major earned over $10 million in revenue and gained 70 million users in just 5 months 📈

⭐️ I like Major because it’s quick to adopt the new possibilities of the mini app platform and adds features that feel like they naturally belong in Telegram. And I like @Roxman, who I’ve followed since before he launched @Fabrika and @Major 🤝

🫴 Roxman generously donated 1% of $MAJOR tokens to me, which I won’t be selling for the next 10 years. I hear the Major team has many innovations in the pipeline (like username NFT rentals and digital IDs). And tomorrow is a big day for them — their $MAJOR token is getting listed on six big exchanges 📆

⭐️ Let’s wish them good luck! 💫

🧑‍💻 Over the past few years, our moderation team has been working tirelessly to keep Telegram safe. Each month they removed about 1 million channels and groups, along with over 10 million users who violated our rules. These impressive results were made possible thanks to your reports, as well as our automated detection systems and AI-powered tools 😵

🤫 However, much of this work remained behind the scenes. The public wasn’t fully aware of the extent of our moderation efforts, and media outlets often relied on outdated information from parts of our website that hadn’t been updated in a decade 🕷

🖥 To address this, we’ve launched a new section on our website: telegram.org/moderation. This page highlights the incredible work our moderators have done over the years and offers a transparent overview of our ongoing commitment to keeping Telegram safe 🧹
