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.
• 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.
• 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.

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.

Lines have been noticed in the source code of the Beta version of Telegram for Android that point to the release of business features in the Telegram Premium subscription:
• Your business opening hours: Entrepreneurs will be able to specify opening hours of their organization inside the messenger so clients know when they can contact for business issues.
• Prepared replies: It will be possible to send pre-prepared messages using text, image and video formats. The new feature will help business people reply faster to their clients' requests using prepared response templates for FAQs.
It is important to note that now only mentions of these features have been found in Telegram's code and that these updates have not been officially announced yet, so the final version of the features may have some changes.

Get Premium for Helping Telegram Send SMS Codes
Telegram has launched a program which allows users to get Premium for sending SMS messages with OTP codes to other users. A user from Indonesia shared screenshots of the feature with @tginfo.
Terms of Service have appeared for the new program, which is called “Peer-to-Peer Login Program”.
On the page Telegram informs that only users from some countries can participate. Telegram will be using user’s phone to send no more than 150 SMS codes monthly, at the user’s expense. When the user reaches the minimum quota, they will be rewarded with a transferable gift code that grants access to a monthly Telegram Premium subscription. The messenger won't compensate carrier rates and fees for sending the messages.
Telegram warns that theoretically program participants can see phone numbers of the users who receive the OTP codes. The same way, receivers will know the codes are sent from other Telegram users.
@tginfo confirmed existence of the feature in Telegram for Android 10.8.1 (4404) code. The Terms of Service point out that the program is only available to Android users.
We speculate that the program will be used in countries which have high SMS fees, like Indonesia.

Telegram Will Only Share Its Ad Revenue in Countries Where Ad Platform Is Newly Introduced
Yesterday, Pavel Durov announced that starting from March of this year, Telegram will share half of its native ads revenue with channel owners. According to the "Durov's Code" channel, citing one of Telegram's advertising partners, payouts will only be made in countries that are new to advertising. For example, Russia is not among them, as the advertising platform in the Russian market was launched earlier.
In the new countries, Telegram will sell ads and reward channel owners only in TON cryptocurrency.
In regions where advertising has been running for a long time, the previous methods of payment for sponsored posts will remain.
Whether the reward system will ever be extended to countries where the advertising platform has already been launched is not reported.

Pavel Durov speaks on the reliability and innovation of Telegram in comparison to other platforms
Pavel Durov has made confident remarks upon the outage of Facebook and Instagram, where he states Telegram has "1000x fewer full-time employees than Meta" and that "Millions of people have been signing up and sharing content on Telegram in the last hour" highlighting Telegram's surge in growth due to service outages of other platforms.
He states that Telegram "managed to launch new features and innovate faster." and has additionally "spent several times less on infrastructure per user.", implying Durov's strong belief that Telegram is at forefront of innovation in the messaging market globally, whilst still maintaining their strong monetization strategy. He also states that Telegram has only been down for around 9 minutes for the entirety of 2023. It is assumed this statistic is based on a scenario where all of Telegram's Datacenters experience an outage simultaneously, at one given time.
