✳️ WHATSAPP | BUSINESS ✳️
businesses are coming to WhatsApp, take a look at this words from WhatsApp's blog:
But as we announced earlier this year, we want to explore ways for you to communicate with businesses that matter to you too, while still giving you an experience without third-party banner ads and spam. Whether it's hearing from your bank about a potentially fraudulent transaction, or getting notified by an airline about a delayed flight, many of us get this information elsewhere, including in text messages and phone calls. We want to test these features in the next several months.

Color generation of Display Names
Telegram apps have a fixed set of colors. App is choosing the color based on the chatid and the userid. On Github you can see that e.g. our Android version has 8 fixed colors. So it could be that the name of the contact appears red in group chat A and in the group B in blue.

✳️ TELEGRAM | REWARDS ✳️
Telegram has paid $450.000 to more than 50 artists who created sticker packs within half a year.
Telegram has announced first results of sticker pack authors bounty program. From March to August 2016, more than 50 artists received $450k, says creative director of Telegram Andrey Yakovenko on his VK page.
In conversation with vc.ru Yakovenko told that the size of the bounty fund was $80.000. The remaining $370.000 were used to pay for stickers themselves — $80 per sticker. The bounty size of each artist is determined individually: it depends mainly on the popularity of the sticker pack and starts from $700.
Payments for stickers occured each month within the last 6 months. «Each month we collect reports on the work done and transfer payments for the new stickers» — told Telegram representative.
Bounty was paid as a bonus to the montly payment in August. In the future the company wants to continue working using that scheme.
Yakovenko didn’t tell the exact number of artists who received bounty. He explained that the number is constantly changing. «Someone leaves for personal reasons, someone new comes. Some go off to save energy and ideas. We want everyone to draw one set per month» — he explained.
Telegram team selects the works based on the quality of stickers, the author’s ability to create their own characters, skills to depict emotions, and humor. In order to participate in bounty program one should send 3 stickers in color with one character (with the size of no less than 512x512 pixels) and 5 outline sketches with the same character showing different emotions to Yakovenko’s Telegram account (@Yakovenko).
The next bounty payment is planned for the New Year, the size of the bounty will depend on the fullness of the artists.
Yakovenko says that the number of artists is not that big so bounty fund allows to increase the number of authors.
