• Telegram gift market: Booming sector In the rapidly evolving world of NFTs (non-fungible tokens), Telegram's gift economy has emerged as a dynamic new frontier. With a record $2.3 million daily turnover, the gift market has transformed into a thriving ecosystem for digital collectibles on the TON blockchain.

As the market continues to grow, Portals is poised to lead the charge, offering a groundbreaking zero-commission marketplace that redefines how users trade NFT-based Telegram gifts.

Portals: Game-changer for NFT marketplaces

Recently launched, the Portals app introduces a revolutionary approach to trading Telegram NFT gifts. Unlike traditional marketplaces that charge commissions from 2.5% to 15%, it offers zero commissions for the first 10 days, making it the only platform of its kind. This move ensures creators and traders retain the original value of the assets.

Built on the TON blockchain, Portals provides seamless wallet integration, lightning-fast transactions and a user-friendly interface easily adopted both by new users and experienced traders. The app is all set to boost a vibrant community of NFT collectors and enthusiasts.

Portals is something beyond the concept of just a marketplace — it's a catalyst for growth in the Telegram gift economy. The platform's early traction, backed by Telegram influencers and a surge of initial users, signals strong community support and sets the stage for even greater adoption.

Telegram gift market: Booming sector

The NFT gift market has seen explosive growth since its inception in 2024, with tens of millions of gifts exchanged, according to GiftStat analytics. Rare gifts, such as the Gold Pepe, have skyrocketed in value, with some fetching up to 6,500 TON (approximately $40,000 at current rates) after initially costing just a few dollars. With TON's integration deepening — through features like TON Connect and the upcoming TON Teleport bridge to Bitcoin — the ecosystem is set for further expansion, making Telegram a key player in Web3.
