Telegram has launched the ability to buy and sell short recognizable @ usernames for personal accounts, public groups and channels.
The auction for the best usernames is live on Fragment:
https://fragment.com
The ownership of these collectible usernames is secured in the immutable ledger of TON, a fast and scalable blockchain network. Owners can add multiple username aliases to their personal account, group or channel.
Each collectible name can be accessed with its @username on Telegram, or outside Telegram using links such as username.t.me and t.me/username.
For the first time in the history of social media, people have full ownership of their usernames. Long-time Telegram users who have been using short usernames they registered early on can now benefit from the platform's growth by selling their usernames in fair, transparent, fully decentralized auctions.
12 new packs are available in the emoji panel, giving ⭐️ Premium subscribers hundreds more ways to express themselves in messages and captions – or with emoji statuses.
