🏆 Contest for Content Creators: Results
The first-ever contest for content creators turned out to be a great success.
The submission count speaks for itself – we received 461 entries. After filtering out incomplete and empty submissions, we grabbed some popcorn and dove deep into the colorful kaleidoscope of hundreds of videos you created.
We’d like to thank each and every one of you – for your dedication, time, and boundless creativity. What you did was much more than simply taking part in Telegram’s competition – it was about telling the world the truth. The truth about who truly paves the way of digital innovation.
Since all of your creations are truly unique, we abstained from traditional prize places this time. Instead, we’ve defined several categories, and each video within a category below will receive a winner’s fee of $2,000.
Meet the winners!
