TON Ads (channel placement)
A category of Telegram advertising where an advertiser pays the channel owner directly — typically in TON cryptocurrency — to publish a promotional post. Unlike official sponsored messages, TON-paid placements are not subject to Telegram moderation and appear as regular channel posts. They are the dominant ad format in many niches, particularly crypto, trading and affiliate offers.
