O Telegram Premium, as Pavel Durov introduced him, is a new paid modality that will bring exclusive benefits to the most active users. However, all current functionality of the free version of the platform will remain unchanged.
Incidentally, the development and improvement of Telegram (free) will continue to run its normal course. At the same time, however, there will be incentives and advantages to attract new users to the paid plan. Note that this modality is inspired by Twitter Blue, the paid version of the social network, among others.
Telegram Premium brings additional features, exclusive functions and more speed
It is purely optional and strategically aims to bring a new source of profitability to the company. At the moment, the list of exclusive attributes can be consulted above, but we have other news to come to the platform in the future.
