In the quiet language of legacy, some invitations are written long before they’re opened. According to Le Point, Telegram founder Pavel Durov has pledged his $17.1 billion estate to 106 children - six biological, and over 100 conceived through anonymous sperm donations in 12 countries. But they won’t receive a kobo until 2055. In this act, a willed invitation is extended: you are recognised, but not yet rewarded.
Key Points
- Durov confirmed fathering 100+ children via sperm donation across 12 countries
- All children — biological and donor-conceived — will inherit equally
- Inheritance delayed until June 19, 2055, to encourage independence
- He cited political risks from his tech activism, including a 2024 arrest
- Legacy is framed as structured access, not immediate reward
