Not clickbait, real money that Pavel Durov made selling Valentine's Gift Collections on Telegram
β 2,000 hearts at $200 each ($400,000 in 6 minutes)
β 15,000 Loot Bags at $50 each ($750,000 in 24 minutes)
β 35,000 rings at $20 each ($700,000 in 1 hour)
All while you were sleeping.
Wondering who buys this stuff and why? Legit question. Here's the deal:
These digital gifts appear on your Telegram profile when someone sends them to you. When others visit your profile, they see your gifts
People buy them for status. It's like designer clothes but online β showing they can afford it. It also shows that the receiver is special if someone spent $200 on a digital gift β simple status symbol. Plus, limited editions create hype. Scarcity makes anything more desirable (yes, even digital hearts). FOMO is real.
Wild, right?
