Pavel Durov, the CEO of Telegram, has repeatedly said the following on his Telegram channel about ads on Telegram: - ads will be only on very large public channels and not on all public channels - there won’t be any ads in chats - the ads will be contextual, and not based on tracking or profiling users and their activity - users will be able to opt out of ads Other monetization options like donations and subscriptions are also in the works. His channel is at https://t.me/durov https://t.me/durov Personally, I wouldn’t mind paying a modest fee for this service.

Same. UI/UX-wise and super light and blazing fast native clients - I would gladly pay like ~$5/month.

  My willingness to pay is more like $2.99/month, but it's still more than I'd pay for any other Messenger.

  Also same. I'd also like the ability to pay maybe a bit more and be able to gift full access to friends/family.

Telegram can also sell "premium reaction packs" (steam hats), and/or go Discord mode and have people "boost" private groups etc with "premium features"... I would actually pay for better video calls (no one is giving us 1080p or greater)
