A Telegram wallet tally cited by founder Pavel Durov shows that more than 1 million self-custody Gram (GRAM) wallets became active on the platform over 48 hours, giving Telegram another measure of wallet use.

Durov previously explained that receiving Gram activates a wallet. The latest figure therefore counts wallets reaching that step, while his earlier two-day tally counted wallets newly added to Telegram.

Durov's previous figure was 718,080, as EconoTimes reported in its earlier coverage. The two counts track different events and do not show how many of those newly added wallets received Gram and became active.

Walt handles Telegram's custodial financial products; Gram Wallet is a separate service.
