🚀 Telegram Wallet, the crypto-friendly bot, is set to expand globally, starting with Africa and Latin America in November! The wallet allows users to buy, sell, and transact cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin directly within the Telegram messenger app. Why custodial over self-custodial? Easy onboarding for new users, of course! 🌍

- COO Halil Mirakhmed says self-custody is "exceedingly difficult" for crypto newbies

- Telegram Wallet simplifies onboarding and transactions by using phone contacts instead of addresses

- Rollout will continue to MENA, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, and Eastern Europe

Remember, custodial wallets are more convenient but less safe, while self-custodial wallets are more secure but less convenient. Choose wisely! 😉
