How the World Wire works

Only 24 telegrams appear on the live wire.

Priority is determined by confirmed USDT added during the previous rolling 24 hours.

Anyone can send a new telegram.

Anyone can raise the priority of an existing telegram.

Anyone can relay a telegram for free.

Payments buy priority and visibility inside telegram.am. They are not transferred to the telegram author.

A position is calculated when payment is confirmed. It is not reserved while payment is pending.

A higher live score ranks higher. If scores are equal, the telegram that reached the score first stays higher.

Payments older than 24 hours stop affecting the live ranking.

A telegram that leaves the live wire remains available in the archive and can return after a new confirmed payment.

Paid priority does not guarantee traffic, clicks, customers, revenue or a fixed position.

telegram.am does not endorse a telegram merely because it appears on the wire.

Threats, doxxing, impersonation, phishing, malware, illegal sales and clearly unlawful material may be hidden.

Payments are generally final after blockchain confirmation. Duplicate technical charges can be reviewed manually.

telegram.am is an independent public-message service and is not affiliated with Telegram Messenger.
