According to Odaily Planet Daily, Telegram CEO Pavel Durov said that 2024 is expected to be a key year for blockchain adoption. "2024 will go down in history as the year when hundreds of millions of people become familiar with blockchain. We are proud that Telegram is at the center of this social change."

Durov revealed that Telegram will step up its efforts to combat scammers targeting new users in the crypto space. Soon, Telegram will display the registration month and major countries of public accounts, and allow organizations to use mini-programs to post tags for channels and create decentralized markets.

Earlier news, Telegram announced plans to strengthen blockchain-related initiatives, including launching a mini app store and an in-app browser that supports Web3 pages.
