Pavel Durov Latest News
Pavel Durov, founder and CEO of Telegram, is a key figure in both tech and crypto. Originally known for creating VKontakte, Russia’s largest social network, Durov launched Telegram in 2013 as a privacy-focused messaging app. As of 2025, Telegram has over 900 million monthly active users and has evolved into a central hub for crypto-native communication and development. His most impactful move in the blockchain space has been backing the resurgence of TON (The Open Network), a decentralized blockchain now integrated directly within the Telegram app.
Durov’s estimated net worth sits between $15–17 billion, much of it derived from his holdings in Telegram and crypto assets linked to TON. In 2025, Telegram introduced native wallet support, peer-to-peer crypto payments, and ecosystem tools for developers to build apps within its interface. The TON Foundation, closely tied to Telegram’s growth, has deployed more than $250 million in funding. Durov’s approach blends messaging, DeFi, and social finance, positioning Telegram as a super app for the Web3 era.
