Unleashing Telegram Group Calls: The New Era of Secure Communication
Telegram's Capabilities Revealed by Pavel Durov: Insights into the Current Functionality of the Platform
Buckle up, communication has leveled up! In a shockingly exciting turn of events, the boss-man himself, Pavel Durov, announces that Telegram is stepping up its game with a brand-new feature— ultra-secure group calls for up to 200 participants!
He flaunted the news on his very own Telegram channel, stating, "Say hello to secure group calls, wrapped not just in end-to-end encryption but also a protective layer like blockchain, ensuring no unwanted listeners sneakily hop in!"
Now, you can rejoice at the thought of chattting up to 200 people in a call, whether it's a one-on-one conversation or a event invite, with the convenience of sharing links, QR codes, or sending direct invites. Or, if you're dealing with a crowd larger than that, fear not! Telegram groups can host voice and video chats for tens of thousands of participants.
But that's not all! Earlier, Durov also pulled a rabbit out of his hat with the announcement of a nifty little feature: searching for stickers using artificial intelligence. This new AI-powered search supports multiple keywords in 34 languages for over 40,000 official stickers created over a decade.
Lightning Fast Notes:
- Group Call Size: Up to 200 participants—perfect for personal and professional needs![2][3]
- Secure Shield: End-to-end encryption plus blockchain-like tech to keep out unwanted listeners![1][3][5]
- Verification Simplicity: A set of matching emojis—the proof in the (group) call![1][3]

And if you're a business on Telegram, prepare for some fancy automation! The update introduces advanced automation capabilities for business accounts, allowing them to manage profile info, stories, and gifts, as well as automate customer interactions with AI-powered chatbots.[3][5]
Oh, and there's more! This little update also includes new gesture controls for mobile users and a moderation system with a "freeze mode" for suspected violations, allowing users to appeal account restrictions conveniently within the app![5]
