Number of Boosts for Obtaining A New Level on Channels Has Been Reduced

Now, to get the next level, the channel needs a number of boosts equal to 0.1% (1/1000 part) of the total number of its subscribers.

Let us remind you that previously this required 0.4% (1/250) of the total amount of subscribers.

Mentions of Telegram Premium Giveaways Functionality on Fragment

@tginfo noticed Telegram Premium giveaways functionality added to Fragment.com's codebase. The change was detected thanks to @tgcrawl's automated analysis. Earlier we've already reported about this feature surfacing in Telegram for macOS localization files.

The Fragment platform is considered to be Telegram's partner, designated to provide an option to buy Telegram's Premium subscription, usernames, and anonymous numbers using TON cryptocurrency. All the services can be paid for using QR codes, which are supposed to be scanned in the Tonkeeper wallet.

Other noteworthy mentions in the code
• Ability to specify the number of subscriptions.
• Ability to specify the number of months — probably for Premium duration.
• There's a possible fee for the giveaway functionality.
• You can find Premium recipients using search.
• The UI has mentions for boosts, but their context is unclear.

It's important to keep in mind that the provided info is a set of assumptions based off the Fragment's code that surfaced, so the functionality may be significantly different on its release. At the moment of writing, the mentioned code was already removed.

Changes in The Telegram Boost System

On November 6th, administrators of channels gained the ability to organize giveaways. At the same time, the logic of receiving and using boosts changed. The @tginfo team explains all the main changes in the boost system.

Boost for users
Now users receive:
• 4 boosts for buying a paid subscription;
• 3 boosts for gifting a subscription to another user;
• 1 boost for receiving a subscription as a gift from another user.
• No boots for receiving a subscription as a gift from a channel.

Each boost is available to a user throughout the entire period of validity of the corresponding Premium subscription. For example, if you bought a 12-month subscription, you will have four boosts for one year. If you gifted a 3-month subscription to your friend, he will have three additional boosts for three months.

Using boosts
A user can give all their boosts to one or several channels. If they didn't give away all their boosts before November 6th, then after this date the may have a few new unused boosts.

Viewing information about boosts
A user can see information about their boosts only when they have given away all their boosts: until then this information is not available to them. If a user without any free boosts tries to boost a channel, the app will show a list of used boosts with information about their validity periods and the channels they were given to.

Boosts for channels
Before November 6th, a channel had to gain a certain number of boosts to progress to the next level. After November 6th, this number was increased — to 0.4%.

Boosts for Groups

Lines have been noticed in the source code of the Beta version of Telegram for macOS that point to the ability to boost groups. There's a similar system in channels now.

The lines show that boosts will allow group admins to choose a chat custom emoji pack, as well as set an emoji status and wallpaper that will be visible to everyone in the group.

Boosts in Groups

The @tginfo editors has analyzed new lines discovered by @tgcrawl on the Telegram translations platform, and anticipates that the upcoming update will bring support for a boost system in groups. Boosts in groups will work similar to boosts in channels, but with some differences.

👥 Features Similar to Channels:

• Ability to boost the group
Group members will be able to boost the group to unlock additional features.

• Stories in Groups
Group administrators will have the ability to post a specific number of stories per day in the group, based on the chat's level.

Boosts for Telegram Premium giveaway
The group will receive boosts for Telegram Premium subscriptions given away among its members.

• Group Customization
Administrators will have the ability to set emoji statuses, wallpapers, and a custom logo for the group header, visible to all chat members.

👥 Group-Specific Features:

• Access to Custom Emojis
Administrators can install a group emoji pack. All members can use emojis from this pack in the group, even without a Telegram Premium subscription.

• Voice Message Transcription
Group members can transcribe voice messages sent in the group, even without a Premium subscription.

• Removal of restrictions for those who boosted the group
Administrators will have the ability to lift group restrictions for those who have boosted a certain number of times for the chat. For example: in a group where media sending is prohibited, users who have boosted 4 times for the chat will be able to send media.

• Real-Time Translation
Every group member will have the ability to translate all messages in the chat in real-time.

Boosts in Groups

The Beta version of Telegram for Android has introduced boosts in groups.

The @tginfo editors have talked about what features the boosts bring to the group here and here. However, some other features have been found in the Beta version 10.8.0:

• Only supergroups can be boosted. There is no such ability in regular groups.
• The number of boosts a group needs to get each new level is different than in channels. Let us remind you that in channels this number is equal to the total number of subscribers divided by 250. The formula for groups is still unknown, but it is already clear that each level in a group requires much more boosts: probably, for groups the total number of members is divided by 25.
• The number of boosts is displayed next to the messages of those members who have given their boosts to the group. Apparently, it is not possible to disable the display of this information.
• The service message that someone has transferred their boosts is not always displayed in groups.

Telegram Has Been Updated to Version 10.8

The messenger received the first update for February of this year.

In the new version, the boost system for groups has been added. Let us tell you more about it:

Opportunity to boost group: Users can now boost a group to unlock new features like public voice message transcription and real-time translation.

Features are unlocked as the group level grows. To reach each level you need to get boosts in the amount of 1/25 of the total number of chat members, which is 10 times more than in channels.

Customize appearance settings for the group: Groups now have a Appearance and Emoji tab where administrators can set a personal color for the profile, select the group's emoji pack and emoji status, and set a custom wallpaper. To unlock a feature, a group will need to reach a certain level.

Group custom emoji: There is now an ability to set custom emoji that will be available to each member in that group.

Removing limits for boosts: Select the number of boosts a member should give to the group in order to not be limited by the limits set for all chat members in the permissions section.

Stories from groups: Administrators can now post stories on behalf of the group. The number of stories per day is equal to the chat level.

Giveaways in groups: Chat owners can organize a giveaway among members. In return, the group will receive 4 boosts for each giveaway.

Android: Google Play, APK from the official website or verified channel.
iOS: App Store.
Desktop: the official website or GitHub.
macOS: App Store, the official website or verified channel.
