Inco, a project dedicated to establishing a universal privacy layer for Ethereum and other networks, is poised to revolutionize the development landscape within Telegram by empowering developers to create intranet products securely through mini-applications.

Partnering with Privy, the Inco project aims to offer developers a robust platform for crafting Telegram mini-applications that prioritize security and confidentiality.

This initiative comes in the wake of significant announcements by Telegram founder Pavel Durov, who outlined plans to tokenize functions, distribute advertising revenues with users, and integrate the Tether stablecoin into The Open Network (TON) blockchain.

The key innovation introduced by Inco's universal privacy layer lies in its ability to facilitate the creation of quarantine-free apps and mini-games embedded within Telegram. These applications will feature hidden information that remains fully verifiable, enabling the development of prediction markets, card games, and other interactive experiences seamlessly integrated with crypto wallets.

Previously, Telegram mini-apps operated in a centralized manner, rendering them susceptible to hacking and fraudulent activities. Inco's solution addresses these vulnerabilities, offering developers a secure framework for deploying decentralized applications directly within the Telegram ecosystem.

Remi Gai, CEO of Inco, highlighted the potential of decentralized apps within Telegram to significantly expand the reach of developers and drive the growth of the Web3 industry. By tapping into Telegram's vast user base, developers can create consumer-friendly experiences that cater to the needs of retail users on a massive scale.

Telegram's ongoing efforts to integrate cryptocurrency functionalities align with its broader vision of becoming a hub for decentralized tools and services. Since reporting plans for decentralized trading and storage tools at the end of 2022, Telegram has steadily introduced a range of cryptocurrency options, including the native messenger wallet.

Among its recent initiatives, the collaboration between Wallet in Telegram and the TON Foundation stands out. As part of a USDT staking promotion, the TON Foundation plans to distribute $30 million, offering users a lucrative opportunity to earn a 50% interest on their staked assets.
