Telegram Stars Gifts — who holds the most
Stars gifts are digital presents bought with Telegram Stars and displayed on a profile. Some are limited-edition unique (NFT) gifts, transferable on TON. The number a channel has received (stargifts_count) is a public wealth-and-engagement signal — which is why we track it. Below: the channels holding the most saved gifts, and a plain-language glossary of how the system works.

How Telegram Stars gifts work
Telegram Stars Gift
A digital gift bought with Telegram Stars and sent to a user or channel, where it can be displayed on the profile. Gifts come in two kinds: regular sticker-based gifts and limited-edition unique (NFT) gifts. The number a profile has received is exposed publicly as stargifts_count, which tgadsspy reads as a wealth-and-engagement signal — profiles with many gifts tend to be premium audiences with high Stars spend. The owner can pin favourites, hide a sender's name, and sort gifts into collections. For the gifts vertical this is the umbrella concept; see saved gift, unique gift and gift collection for the specific mechanics.
Unique Gift (NFT)
A limited-edition Telegram Stars gift that carries individual attributes (model, backdrop, symbol) and a serial number, making each copy distinct — Telegram's native NFT format. Unlike a regular sticker gift, a unique gift is transferable and can be moved or traded on the TON blockchain, so it holds and accrues real-world value. In the gift data this is the unique variant of a saved gift (versus regular); listings can be sorted by value or filtered to exclude unique items. A profile holding rare unique gifts is a strong premium-audience and high-Stars-spend signal for advertiser targeting.
Gift Collection
An owner-curated grouping of the Stars gifts saved on a profile. Telegram lets a recipient sort received gifts into named collections (exposed as collection_ids on each saved gift), the way one might arrange a display cabinet — for example separating rare unique (NFT) gifts from regular ones. Collections are a presentation and curation layer, not a separate gift type: the same gift can sit in a collection while still counting toward the profile's public stargifts_count. For the gifts vertical they reveal how a profile organises and showcases its most valued gifts.
Saved Star Gift
A Telegram Stars-purchased gift permanently displayed on a user or channel profile (stargifts_count field). Recipients can pin selected gifts to highlight them. For Telegram Ads Spy, saved gifts are a wealth and engagement signal — channels with high stargifts_count are likely premium audiences with high Stars-spend, valuable for advertiser targeting.
