Secret Chats are one of the serviceโs additional security features; it allows messages to be sent with client-to-client encryption. This setup means that, unlike regular messages, these secret messages can only be accessed from the deviceโs that initiated and accepted the chat. Additionally, Telegram notes that secret chats leave no trace on the companyโs services and offer a self-destruct timer.
The messaging service and social-media platform owes creditors roughly $700 million by the end of April, according to people briefed on the companyโs plans and loan documents viewed by The Wall Street Journal. At the same time, Telegram Group Inc. must cover rising equipment and bandwidth expenses because of its rapid growth, despite going years without attempting to generate revenue.
