Working Telegram Proxy List (MTProto)

What is an MTProto Proxy?

MTProto (Mobile Telegram Protocol) is the native protocol used by Telegram. An MTProto proxy acts as a bridge between you and Telegram's servers. It is specifically designed to bypass censorship in countries where Telegram might be blocked or restricted, without the speed loss often associated with traditional VPNs.

MTProto vs. SOCKS5

While **SOCKS5** is a general-purpose proxy protocol, **MTProto** is built specifically for Telegram. MTProto is generally faster and more reliable for Telegram calls and media downloads because it is optimized for the app's specific traffic patterns. SOCKS5 is older and less secure for this specific use case.

How to Use This Proxy List

1. Choose a Proxy: Look for a proxy in the list above with a low "Ping" (green indicator), which means it is fast.
2. Click Connect: Tap the "Connect" button next to your chosen proxy.
3. Confirm in App: Telegram will open automatically. Simply tap "Enable Proxy" in the pop-up window to start using it.

Is it Safe?

Unlike some free VPNs that route all your device's traffic, an MTProto proxy only handles your Telegram data. Telegram's end-to-end encryption (for Secret Chats) and cloud encryption (for regular chats) remain intact. However, note that the proxy owner can see the metadata (IP addresses), but they cannot read your messages.

MTProto Proxy vs. VPN: Which is better?

While both tools help you bypass censorship, an MTProto proxy is specifically optimized for Telegram. Unlike a VPN, it doesn't encrypt your entire device's traffic, which means it is often much faster and doesn't drain your battery as quickly. If your primary goal is to keep Telegram connected in restricted regions, a dedicated MTProto proxy is the superior choice.
