12 posts held, back to 30 June 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.
ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) ÷ views— note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegram’s public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate.

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than “correcting” the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form — 8.12K, 3.7M — so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.
Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded — read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.
69 reactions across 12 posts, in 5 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 65.2% of them.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| ❤ | 45 | 65.2% | |
| 🔥 | 13 | 18.8% | |
| 👏 | 5 | 7.25% | |
| 👍 | 4 | 5.80% | |
| ⚡ | 2 | 2.90% |
No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 12 of the 12 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 69reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 12 most recent posts we hold, published 30 June 2026 to 6 August 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

Good to see our portfolio company DalaPay represented by Olaitan SAMUEL at Enugu Gaming Conference 2026, where he joined discussions on payment systems, local technology, and the future of iGaming in Africa. Events like this matter because they bring the operational questions to the table — not only how the industry grows, but what kind of infrastructure it grows on.

Communication is often brought in after the decision is already made. But every business decision sends a signal — to employees, customers, partners, investors, and regulators. In a recent article by our vertical Velex Hub, Rose Wanjiru looks at why communications should not be treated as the final step, but as part of the strategy itself. Because the way a decision is understood can matter just as much as the dec…

Lusaka was a good reminder that payment infrastructure becomes much more meaningful when merchants can see it, test it, and understand how it fits into their daily work. Great to see two of our portfolio companies, Unipesa and Zoyk, at the MSME Finance Fair 2026 in Zambia, working together to bring modern payment acceptance closer to SMEs. Here’s to more moments like this! 🤝

Launching a company in MEA is one challenge. Scaling it across multiple markets is another. In a recent article published by MENAFN, we explore why capital alone is often not enough — and why connected ecosystems are becoming increasingly important for long-term growth across the region. As Vadim Mildov, Executive Chairman at Velex Group, notes: Capital alone cannot solve structural fragmentation. Sustainable ven…

Three days in Limassol, with a strong presence from our portfolio companies. 🇨🇾 AvadaPay, DalaPay, and Unipesa recently attended iFX EXPO International 2026, meeting partners, reconnecting with industry peers, and exploring new opportunities around payments.

Showing the 12 most recent of 12 posts we hold for @VelexGroup. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
