Telegram’s core domain t.me has been placed on serverHold at the .me registry, effectively removing it from global DNS and rendering all t.me links inaccessible.

The change occurred today, according to domain records. As of now, there has been no official explanation from Telegram, the .me registry, or backend operator Identity Digital.

A serverHold is a registry-level status that completely dead-ends the domain, preventing it from resolving anywhere in the world.

It adds up for Tuvalu with the .tv TLD. $10m for a country with a GDP of $65m is no joke.

    15% of GDP just from TLD is wild. But they have only ~10k people there, so makes sense that their GDP isn't really high.

    Montenegro is 'a bit' bigger country by GDP, so for them it's a lot closer to rounding error.
