This story is very deep, and the more you listen, the deeper you will fall? The truth about the arrest of Telegram CEO!
In the movie, we will explore whether Telegram and its founder are angels or demons. Because of the news of this person's arrest, his handsome photos began to spread wildly on the Internet. Everyone only looked at the surface of the story with a melon-eating mood, saying that he was a "golden boy" who fell from the altar.
Remember the name Pavel Durov, because he was young, and the story had all kinds of plots of being entangled in power struggles but escaping unscathed at every level, until he was arrested in France on August 24, 2024. He is the founder of Telegram, but please don't make a conclusion because of his arrest, because this person is definitely not as simple as you think.
Throughout human history, there has never been a time point with less privacy than now. In such a social atmosphere, in 2013, the Telegram communication software developed by a Russian team was born, and it was Pavel Durov who led its rise.
He is a Russian by birth and a resident of the UAE and France. As of 2022, his net worth is estimated to be $15.1 billion. Forbes listed him as the richest and youngest foreigner in the Middle East that year. You have to know that the countries in the Middle East gather super-rich people from all corners of the world, so it is not easy to gain a foothold here, let alone become the richest one.
In 2021, VK was listed as one of the top ten most popular websites in Russia. Reports indicate that the number of users may have exceeded 1 billion. However, this does not seem to have much to do with him. Pavel Durov quickly made a comeback after this incident.
Telegram is very popular in various countries. As of March 2024, it has 900 million active users worldwide
But the good times did not last long. In 2019, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sued him for violating securities laws for selling unlicensed securities. In 2020, the SEC required Telegram to return all the funds raised to investors and pay a fine of $18.5 million in a draft judgment. At this time, Telegram Open Network seemed to have announced its fate and was about to die. However, the real breakthrough was just beginning.#加密市场急跌 #Telegram创始人被捕 #以太坊基金会
