通訊應用程式 Telegram 的活躍用戶已達 9.5 億，目標今年突破 10 億大關

杜羅夫上週表示，該公司還計劃在本月推出一個應用程式商店和一個支援 web3 頁面的應用程式內瀏覽器。

Messaging app Telegram has nearly reached 1 billion active users, a goal that the company’s founder said it aims to cross this year.

通訊應用程式 Telegram 的活躍用戶數量已接近 10 億，該公司創辦人表示今年將實現這一目標。

The company is also planning to launch an app store and an in-app browser with support for web3 pages this month, Durov said last week.

杜羅夫上週表示，該公司還計劃在本月推出一個應用程式商店和一個支援 web3 頁面的應用程式內瀏覽器。

In March, Telegram crossed 900 million users. At that time, in an interview with the Financial Times, Durov said that the company aims to be profitable next year.

3 月份，Telegram 用戶突破 9 億。當時，杜羅夫接受《金融時報》採訪時表示，公司目標是明年獲利。

Telegram seems to be accelerating adoption of web3 tech on its platform. The company has long supported cryptocurrency and blockchain initiatives, but its own efforts to enter the space slowed down after its initial coin offering failed in 2018. In December 2022, the company started auctioning usernames on the TON blockchain.

Telegram 似乎正在加速其平台上 web3 技術的採用。該公司長期以來一直支持加密貨幣和區塊鏈計劃，但在2018 年首次代幣發行失敗後，該公司進入該領域的努力放緩了。拍賣用戶名。

The company has since then focused on helping developers build mini-apps and games that use cryptocurrency for transactions. This year, it started sharing ad revenue with channel owners by handing out toncoin (a token on the TON blockchain). Earlier this month, Telegram started letting channel owners convert stars to toncoin to buy ads at discounted rates or trade cryptocurrencies.

從那時起，該公司就專注於幫助開發人員建立使用加密貨幣進行交易的迷你應用程式和遊戲。今年，它開始透過發放 toncoin（TON 區塊鏈上的代幣）與通路所有者分享廣告收入。本月早些時候，Telegram 開始允許頻道所有者將星星轉換為 toncoin，以折扣價購買廣告或交易加密貨幣。

However, Telegram has long suffered from scams and grifts. Since November 2023, scammers have been actively peddling different schemes to steal toncoins from users, as per a report from Kaspersky. Durov addressed this issue in a message last week, saying that the company is working to mitigate such scams.

然而，Telegram 長期以來一直飽受詐騙和欺詐之苦。根據卡巴斯基的報告，自 2023 年 11 月以來，詐騙者一直在積極兜售不同的方案，從用戶那裡竊取 toncoin。杜羅夫在上週的一條消息中談到了這個問題，並表示該公司正在努力減少此類詐騙。

“Soon, Telegram will begin displaying the month of registration and principal country for public accounts (similar to Instagram). We will also allow organizations to use their mini apps to issue labels for channels, creating a decentralized marketplace for third-party verification,” he wrote in a message on his channel.

「很快，Telegram 將開始顯示公共帳戶的註冊月份和主要國家/地區（類似於 Instagram）。我們還將允許組織使用他們的迷你應用程式為頻道發布標籤，為第三方驗證創建一個去中心化的市場，」他在頻道上的一條訊息中寫道。
