When asked about the end goal of Telegram, the founders have mentioned that the endgame is not profit, however, if you look up Telegram on the internet, it is not registered as a nonprofit entity. This allows us to assume that Telegram would love to generate substantial profits while maintaining a more impactful end goal.
The geographical origins of Telegram is a bit of a story in itself. The company is registered as an English LLP and also as an American LLC. The registered headquarters were in Germany from 2014 to 2015, but the team had to keep relocating after failing to obtain residence permits for all members of the team.
