Telegrass is a cannabis distribution network in Israel, that uses encrypted messaging application Telegram.

The network enables instant anonymous[1] grass delivery and an option to rate the product and the vendors[2].

It is estimated that the revenues of Telegrass are 60 millions NIS monthly. Accorfing to Haaretz, there are more than 70,000 Telegrass users and over 1,300 dealers – and the numbers are constantly increasing[3]. According to Times of Israel, there are over 100,000 registered users. The application was created by Amos Silver, a 33-year-old Israeli activist[4].

Developers are planning to add support for Bitcoin payments.[5]
