Coin界 Network reported on January 6 that according to the British Financial Times, Telegram's $500 million bonds in Russia were frozen by the state settlement depository due to Western sanctions against Russia, despite founder Pavel Durov's efforts to distance himself from Moscow. This move poses obstacles to its debt repurchase and has raised investor concerns. Telegram still plans to repay the relevant debts on schedule, and recently achieved a half-year revenue growth of 65% to $870 million year-over-year, but suffered a net loss of $222 million due to Toncoin depreciation. Telegram is promoting Ton ecosystem integration and preparing for an IPO.
