Telegram to build non-custodial wallets and decentralized exchanges, says CEO Pavel Durov

Pavel Durov, the founder of Telegram, announced that the company would launch a range of decentralized cryptocurrency products, including a decentralized exchange (DEX) and a non-custodial wallet. 

Telegram's next step is to build a set of decentralized tools, including non-custodial wallets and decentralized exchanges for millions of people to securely trade and store cryptocurrencies. This way we can fix the wrongs caused by the current excessive centralization.

“The blockchain industry was built on the promise of decentralization, but ended up being concentrated in the hands of a few who began to abuse their power, ” Pavel said.
