An unknown buyer acquired the username @moscow on Telegram for 40,000 TON, which is equivalent to approximately 20 million rubles.
The auction where the nickname @moscow was sold took place on October 10, 2024, on the Fragment platform. On the same day, a new channel called "Moscow" was created, and the purchased username was assigned to it. The identity of the owner of both the nickname and the channel remains unknown.
The username @moscow has a rich sales history. Judging by the created channel, it appears that this nickname will be used to promote the new channel and is unlikely to be resold to other users.
In Telegram, users often buy unique and collectible nicknames. For example, the nickname @dodopizza was sold for 45 million rubles. The nickname @pavel was purchased for 8 million rubles in April and gifted to Telegram co-founder Pavel Durov.
Fragment is a blockchain platform developed by the Telegram team where you can buy and sell usernames for users and channels, as well as anonymous numbers, a Telegram Premium subscription, and new features added in the latest messenger update.
