The founder of the Telegram messenger, Pavel Durov, spoke about the future of the TON cryptocurrency. 
At the Token2049 conference in Dubai, Durov explained how ordinary Telegram users can use Toncoin (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/Toncoin/" target="_blank" rel="">TON</a>). Starting on April 19, the first payments in TON for advertising to <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/Telegram/" target="_blank" rel="">Telegram</a> channel administrators will begin. In addition, starting next week, users will be able to leave tips to administrators in TON, with content makers receiving a portion of the income.

Buying and selling stickers in TON as <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/NFT/" target="_blank" rel="">NFTs</a> will also be possible, and sticker artists will receive 95% of the proceeds. Telegram will also have mini-applications where users can buy content for crypto. Telegram users can also share TON with other contacts in correspondence.

The founder of Telegram noted that messenger users will also be able to log into their accounts using cryptocurrency wallets. In addition, it will soon be possible to register the rights to an account’s name so users can sell it if they wish. 
Per the Telegram founder, all innovations will be available to all users, and no programming skills will be required to use the new functions.

The first rumors about the launch of <a href="https://crypto.news/price/tether/" target="_blank" rel="">USDT</a> in TON appeared in early April when a joint speech by Telegram founder Durov and Tether head Paolo Ardoino was announced at a crypto conference in Dubai.
