can someone explain how btc works on Telegram? does Tgram run a LN and does it manage channels between users. I suppose Tgram also creates wallets for users on the fly as well? and how does the average person load some sats on the Tgram wallet for the 1 st time if they don't have a bank account this off the back of this interesting video of btc in Cuba.
So most of the stuff I've seen is custodial solutions built by using the Telegram Bot API. I know Telegram is integrating one of the popular ones natively into the app itself soon, pretty sure BTC is supported.
Darth linked the LightningTipBot, which Telegram does not run the node for this wallet. I don't think Telegram runs a node at all, they're pushing the whole TON ecosystem instead
