Telegram and TON enter into exclusive partnership

Telegram has announced an exclusive partnership

with The Open Network (TON) blockchain for crypto applications and games. 

The main points of the agreement are:

▫️ All Telegram mini-apps and games with crypto functionality will have to use TON exclusively.
▫️ Existing projects on other blockchains will need to switch to TON. 
▫️ There are plans to launch NFT-stickers based on TON.

☝🏻 Previously Pavel Durov complained that Apple and Google restricted his rights with their rules about paying only through their store. And now Telegram itself prohibits the use of other blockchains.🤷🏼‍♀️

Interesting development! This exclusive partnership may limit the flexibility of Telegram's crypto applications, but could also lead to a more streamlined user experience and increased security.
