MTProxy - proxy server for Telegram
(This server is availabe as Amazon Machine Image on AWS)
The stability of the global work of Telegram is ensured by a large number of proxy servers around the world. We suggest you to launch and use your own proxy server which uses MTProxy protocol, developed by the Telegram team specifically for the Telegram application. The main features of this protocol are high encryption protection and traffic masking, which makes it possible to ensure the stable operation of the Telegram application in conditions when the provider is trying to restrict access to the Internet.
To encourage the use of proxy servers, Telegram offers the ability to enable channel advertising. In this case, the selected channel will be at the top of the channel list and marked as sponsored for all Telegram users who use your proxy server. You choose the channel for promotion yourself - after that you just have to share your proxy link.
