Missing figures stay unavailable. Forward P/E requires a dated source. Annual revenue, revenue growth, net income and margin come from each company's own 10-K, in US dollars, and each row shows that fiscal year. Revenue growth compares the fiscal year with the prior year stated in the same 10-K. Net income is the full year amount attributable to the company, or available to common stockholders where the filing states only that, or consolidated net income. Each row names its basis. Trailing P/E reads "Not meaningful" when the dated trailing diluted EPS is a loss or zero. An operating margin appears only when the filing states both the operating income and the revenue for the same year.

Sources: SEC filings, Gloria daily closes and CoinGecko. Oldest record refresh: Oct 27, 2026, 8:43 PM EDT. Refresh is not a price or filing date. Each row shows its price date and its annual fiscal period. Peers use industry code and company size, or editorial selection. Market cap multiplies that row price by the company share total the latest SEC filing states for every share class together. Trailing P/E divides it by trailing diluted earnings from SEC filings. Rolled earnings per share are approximate because share counts can change between periods. Both appear only when the SEC data carries its date, so they are estimates at one price date, not synchronized filing valuations. Not investment advice.

Apple pulled Telegram from its App Store on August 4 after discovering child sexual abuse material on the platform. The app was back roughly 90 minutes later, once Telegram deleted the offending content and banned the user responsible.

Apple enforces strict policies around child sexual abuse material, and when it found CSAM on Telegram, it did what it’s done before: it yanked the app entirely. Telegram responded quickly. The content was removed, the offending user was banned, and the app was restored to the App Store within about an hour and a half.

This isn’t the first time this exact scenario has played out. Back in 2018, Telegram was delisted from the App Store for the same reason: CSAM violations. Following that incident, the company enhanced its systems for monitoring public content, though challenges persist.

The Durov factor

Telegram’s founder Pavel Durov has become something of a lightning rod for regulatory attention. As of July 29, Durov was reported to be facing charges in Russia for allegedly aiding terrorism. That’s on top of a prior indictment in France related to facilitating illegal content on the platform.

What this means for the TON ecosystem and crypto investors

No immediate market disruption followed the brief App Store removal. No crypto tokens saw significant price movement tied directly to the incident.

Telegram isn’t just a chat app for crypto traders. It’s the primary distribution channel for TON, a blockchain ecosystem that has built its entire user acquisition strategy around Telegram’s massive user base. Mini apps, wallet integrations, token launches: all of it flows through Telegram. Apple’s App Store is the only way to get Telegram on an iPhone.

For investors in TON or any tokens distributed primarily through Telegram-based mini apps, this incident should function as a stress test preview. The platform passed this time, quickly enough that markets didn’t flinch. Investors should be watching Durov’s legal proceedings and Telegram’s content moderation track record as leading indicators, not just token prices.
