Already, users can earn up to 95% of revenue that comes from the sale of the unique usernames.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tokenization is the next step in Telegram\u2019s growth, Durov said, highlighting the role blockchain technology is set to play in this. The project will \u201cexclusively\u201d leverage The Open Network (TON) blockchain, the Telegram CEO noted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Commenting on the success recorded so far, Durov said:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWe don\u2019t want to stay there. We want to go further. You see, we believe in socially-relevant NFTs. We believe in NFTs that are deeply integrated into human culture, into human interaction, into our communication. NFTs that you can see tens of billions of times and have a lot of potential to spread virally. These are the right NFTs. That\u2019s why the next step that we are going to undertake is tokenizing Telegram stickers.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/toncoin\/\">Toncoin (TON)<\/a>, the native token of TON blockchain, soared in recent months after Telegram rolled out its \u2018Ad Network\u2019. Users can now pay for in-platform adverts, with the initiative offering a 50% share of ad-revenue to channel owners and creators.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Earlier today, TON price rose sharply to $7.20 amid the NFT news. The token\u2019s value also gained after news that stablecoin issuer Tether had <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ton_blockchain\/status\/1781294469901373931\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">launched its USDT on the TON blockchain<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/telegram-to-tokenize-emojis-and-stickers-as-nfts-on-ton-blockchain\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : CoinJournal: Latest Crypto News, Alt Coin News and Cryptocurrency Comparison ) Telegram co-founder and CEO Pavel Durov announced the plans at Token2049 Dubai.
