Verification from Third Parties. Telegram allows public figures and organizations to become verified, so users can quickly identify official sources.
Third-party services are able to assign extra verification icons to user accounts and chats – which helps prevent scams and reduce misinformation.
When a chat or account receives third-party verification, a small logo appears before its name. If you open their profile, you'll see a detailed explanation of the status and what it means.

Telegram has made it easier for its users to communicate, as it has introduced a feature that allows more than 200,000 users in a group chat. However, if the users in a group chat move past 200,000, it changes into "Broadcast Group", but the feature comes with a restriction. Groups with close to 200k members can be converted to a Broadcast Group that allows unlimited members. Only admins can post in Broadcast Groups, but everyone can read along and participate in group Voice Chats," Telegram added.
Telegram announces Anonymous Admins
The cloud-based messaging platform is also adding Anonymous Group Admins feature. As per Telegram, this feature is being introduced for safer protests. As per the Telegram blog post, users can “Toggle Remain Anonymous in Admin rights to enable Batman mode. The anonymized admin will be hidden in the list of group members, and their messages in the chat will be signed with the group name, similar to channel posts.”
