Telegram Integrates Crypto Features with NFT Gifting and Verification
Telegram has rolled out a new update that further integrates its messaging platform into the crypto ecosystem. The update includes NFT gifting and third-party verification features, which will likely boost Telegram-based game tokens like Hamster Kombat.
The new features aim to combat scams and frauds by allowing users to verify their accounts with regulators and organizations. This will instil a sense of trust and tackle the menace of misinformation, according to Telegram.
Verified accounts will display a distinct logo beside their names instead of the usual blue tick verification mark for more clarity regarding the accounts. However, the verification process isn't that easy, and accounts need to go through a stringent application process.
The update also includes emoji reactions, improved search filters for private chats, channels, and group discussions.
