Imagine waking up to find your Telegram channel suddenly sporting a custom verification checkmark, your anonymous number rented out for passive income, and your $MAJOR token holdings quietly climbing a leaderboard that puts you in front of 350,000 monthly active users. That is the ecosystem Major is selling — and with nearly 16.7 million subscribers, it has clearly found an audience willing to buy in.
Major Community is the official channel for the Major project, a Telegram-native platform built on the TON blockchain. Its core pitch revolves around three interlocking services: trading and renting Telegram gifts and NFT numbers, offering custom verification checkmarks through its "Business Card" feature, and now a broader utility app called @Need that bundles VPN, eSIM, AI tools, Steam top-ups, and more under one roof. The tokenomics are straightforward — hold $MAJOR, get discounts, climb leaderboards, earn buyback pressure from platform fees.
The posting frequency is notably sparse for a channel of this size — roughly two to four posts per month. That restraint is either disciplined or telling, depending on how you look at it. What the channel does post tends to be announcement-heavy: new features, leaderboard snapshots, token burns, giveaways for top holders. The anniversary post from November 2025 was a genuine moment of community energy, with physical prizes like Durov-branded caps and plush Pepe toys going to top 100 $MAJOR holders. That kind of real-world tangibility is rare in crypto Telegram and gives the project a personality beyond pure speculation.
The "Coronation" campaign launched in March 2026 — rewarding the top 50 $MAJOR holders with a "King" verification crown — is a clever engagement mechanic that simultaneously drives token accumulation and social status signaling. It is gamification done with some sophistication, even if the underlying logic is straightforwardly "buy more tokens to flex harder."
The escrow service is probably the most practically useful addition: a built-in secure deal system for peer-to-peer Telegram asset trades, with fees routed to $MAJOR buybacks. It addresses a real pain point — scam guarantors are endemic in Telegram trading communities — and the execution seems thoughtful.
What is missing is depth. The channel rarely explains its technology, publishes data on actual user growth, or engages in dialogue. It reads more like a press release feed than a community hub, which feels like a missed opportunity given the subscriber count. There is no educational content for newcomers trying to understand how NFT number rentals or TON-based tokens actually work.
This channel is squarely for people already embedded in the TON ecosystem and Telegram's emerging digital-asset economy — traders of Telegram gifts, holders hunting passive yield, and channel owners chasing credibility signals. If you are curious about Telegram's monetization layer or actively trading TON-based assets, Major Community is worth following for its announcements. If you are looking for analysis, community discussion, or anything resembling a conversation, look elsewhere.
