💎 Pavel Durov became a guest on Lex Fridman’s podcast — a 4.5-hour conversation

Key points:

• In 2018, Durov nearly died from severe poisoning: he temporarily lost his sight, hearing, and ability to breathe. Since then, he has considered his life as “bonus time.”

• Pavel follows an ascetic lifestyle — no alcohol, cigarettes, coffee, or medication. Every day he does hundreds of push-ups and squats to stay in shape.

• Telegram only became profitable in 2024. Today, more than 15 million users pay for the premium subscription, generating over $500 million annually.

• His management style is minimalist: no cumbersome structures or bureaucracy. He recruits engineers through competitions, and the core team consists of just about 40 people.

• For Pavel, freedom of speech is a fundamental principle. It was the reason he left Russia and built Telegram as a platform free from external pressure.

• Durov often warns about the dangers of global control but believes that cryptography and new technologies can help preserve independence. He sees competition as a key driver of progress.

• Currently, he is based in Dubai, where he values neutrality and a business-friendly environment.

📣 Pavel Durov: "I bought Bitcoin at $750 and made a couple of million dollars."

"I believe in this thing. I think this is the way money should work. Nobody can confiscate your Bitcoin from you. Nobody can censor you for political reasons. This is the ultimate means of exchange. And again, I'm not talking about Bitcoin, but it relates to cryptocurrencies in general. So I have been able to fund my lifestyle, so to say, from my Bitcoin investment. Some people think if I'm able to rent nice locations or fly private, it's because I somehow extract money from Telegram. Like I said, Telegram is a money-losing operation for me personally. Bitcoin is something that allowed me to stay afloat."

❕ Just Analytics: US Government Shutdown

On October 1, the federal government shut down — Congress failed to agree on a budget. The last time this happened was in 2018–2019, lasting 35 days and costing the economy $11B (with $3B in permanent losses).

⚡️ What this means

About 800k federal employees are now without pay. Each week of shutdown adds roughly $3B in losses. If it lasts just a few days, the effect is minor. But weeks of deadlock slow government services, hurt spending, and drag on the economy.

🔥 For markets

A short shutdown barely moves markets: stocks stay stable, crypto trades sideways. But if it continues, key data like NFP and CPI won’t be released, investors lose guidance, and uncertainty grows. In that case equities usually fall, Treasuries face pressure, and crypto follows — BTC and ETH drop together with risk assets.

The shutdown isn’t a collapse, but the longer it lasts, the heavier the hit to both the economy and markets — crypto included.

📣 Pavel Durov: "Telegram Gifts became one of the largest NFT ecosystems in just half a year."

"We only launched Telegram Gifts half a year ago, and already TON has grown into one of the largest blockchains by daily NFT trading volumes. A Telegram Gift is there next to your name, it's part of your digital identity, and you can create collections to show on your profile. Most NFTs are just ugly, but with Gifts we reinvented the aesthetic part — they are beautiful, socially relevant, and people love the fact they can congratulate someone with something valuable and at the same time something beautiful."

🔄 Earlier: Pavel shared statistics on gift growth over the past 30 days.
