Telegram and TON Foundation announced a partnership with Tencent to create a "super ecological platform" similar to Wechat.

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens and soft media users for 1520111 clue delivery! CTOnews.com, September 26 (Xinhua)-- according to foreign media TechCrunch, Telegram and the TON Foundation are working with Tencent to build Telegram into a "super application ecological platform" similar to Wechat.

Telegram says it has been developing a platform on which third-party developers, from games to restaurants, can build "mini apps" to interact with users. In Telegram's own words, "developers can use JavaScript to create infinitely flexible interfaces that can be launched within Telegram and can completely replace any website."

▲ foreign media TechCrunch believes that the Mini Program model created by Wechat in China is worth learning, and with this cooperation strategy, Telegram's "mini-app" ecosystem is expected to cover global users in the future.

It is reported that in order to build this "super application" platform, ▲ will rely on a network of infrastructure partners from the world of mature technology and the field of encryption. These include the Open Network (TON) Foundation and Tencent Cloud, which CTOnews.com learned after inquiry that the former will "lay the foundation for the blockchain" for Telegram and is said to "operate as an independent organization", while the latter will provide analysis for projects based on TON.

Foreign media claimed that Tencent Cloud "has successfully supported TON verifier and plans to further expand its services to help meet the high computing intensity and network bandwidth requirements of TON."

Foreign media said that with the help of the TON Foundation and Tencent, Telegram is building a decentralized "mini application platform". However, it remains to be seen how developers will "adapt to the platform" and what Telegram will "learn" from Wechat's success.
