Apple just nuked Telegram from the AppStore globally.
This isn't random. Telegram = where most crypto communities, alpha groups, and OTC deals happen. No Telegram = massive friction for onboarding normies into Web3.
If you're running a project or community heavily reliant on TG, you need a backup plan NOW. Discord? Too centralized. Matrix? Clunky UX.
This could be the catalyst for decentralized messaging protocols to finally get adoption. Keep eyes on $TON and any messaging infra plays.
Also: if Apple can delete Telegram overnight, they can delete your wallet app next. Self-custody isn't optional anymore.
