Telegram has transformed into a comprehensive financial ecosystem for digital assets. PolyGram integrates prediction market functionality directly into Telegram as a Mini App — eliminating the need for external browsers, manual wallet configuration, or additional software installation.

What Is a Telegram Mini App?

Telegram Mini Apps function as embedded web-based applications within the Telegram platform itself. They leverage your Telegram credentials, facilitate transactions, and offer a complete application experience without requiring installation through conventional app marketplaces. PolyGram harnesses this capability to provide users with:

  • Seamless authentication using your Telegram credentials
  • Comprehensive trading dashboard featuring real-time order information and price visualisations
  • Holdings overview and active position administration
  • Real-time alerts for market outcomes and price movements
  • USDC transfers to and from Polygon blockchain

Opening PolyGram on Telegram

  1. Launch Telegram on your preferred platform (iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, or browser)
  2. Locate @PolyGram_Telegram_bot using the search function
  3. Select "Start" — the Mini App initialises within Telegram
  4. Telegram manages user verification automatically
  5. Transfer USDC or utilise the integrated fiat conversion service to commence trading

Why Telegram Is the Right Home for Prediction Markets

Telegram serves as the central hub for cryptocurrency enthusiasts and forecasting professionals. Market insights, analytical commentary, and discussion surrounding prediction markets predominantly occur within Telegram communities. PolyGram eliminates friction by enabling users to discover a market through group conversations and execute trades within the identical application without interrupting their workflow.

Security: Is It Safe?

PolyGram's Mini App implementation relies on Telegram's native security protocols. Your USDC holdings reside on the Polygon blockchain — maintained independently of Telegram infrastructure and PolyGram's operational systems. In the event of service interruption, your assets remain retrievable through any Polygon-enabled wallet application using your secret key.
