Refereum and telegram

I don't get it. I mean, what's the point of having the title of "biggest telegram group"? What does that do for your product or tech? All I can see happening is there being a lot of pissed off people when they apply for the whitelist and get denied OR a very insignificant personal cap for each contributor which will piss everyone off anyway. I have a feeling half of that number are a bunch of bots anyways
