On March 19, he announced on X (formerly Twitter) that the messaging app had surpassed 1 billion monthly active users. Durov revealed that Telegram users are more engaged than ever and said, “On average, each user opens Telegram 21 times daily and spends 41 minutes on the app every day. Meanwhile, our revenue growth has exploded, with $547M in profit in 2024." It makes Telegram the second most popular messaging app worldwide, excluding China-specific WeChat. He didn’t stop here and further said, “Ahead of us stands only WhatsApp — a cheap, watered-down imitation of Telegram. For years, they’ve tried to copy us while burning billions on lobbying and PR to slow us down. They failed. Telegram grew, became profitable, and — unlike our competitor — retained its independence.” Elon Musk’s X Valuation Surges Back to USD 44 Billion, Equal to Musk’s Twitter Deal in 2022: Report.
