Telegram founder Pavel Durov said the chat service will launch advertisements on public one-to-many platforms next year. "On his Telegram channel, Durov wrote that the ad platform will be "one that is user-friendly, protects anonymity, and helps us to pay server and traffic costs.
As another form that Telegram could monetize, he also pointed to premium stickers, stressing that current features would stay free and that he does not favour displaying advertisements in private chats.
Durov said that Telegram is "approaching" 500 million subscribers, in addition to addressing the company's monetization plans.
