Pavel Durov spoke about the first results of the Fragment auction platform in a post published on his Telegram channel. In less than a month of work on Fragment, unique short names were sold on Telegram for $50 million, Durov wrote.
“Fragment will go beyond usernames this week,” the Telegram founder said, without revealing other details of the innovations.
Durov also wrote that Telegram’s next step will be the creation of a set of decentralized tools, including wallets and exchanges for “secure cryptocurrency trading and storage.”
“We developers must move the blockchain industry away from centralization by creating fast and easy-to-use decentralized applications for the masses,” Durov said.
The Fragment auction platform launched on October 27. In it, you can buy short unique names on Telegram for the TON coin. At the moment, the record price belongs to the username @news, which was sold for 994 thousand TON (about $1.7 million).
