TON Wallet Launches in U.S., Bringing Telegram-Integrated Crypto to Millions of Users

Telegram has rolled out a new crypto feature, dubbed TON Wallet, to users in the United States, enabling people to send, receive, and store digital assets directly within the messaging app.

The feature, built on The Open Network (TON) blockchain, is available directly within the Telegram app and does not require any additional downloads or extensions, according to a press release viewed by The Defiant.

Users can send and receive crypto like Tether’s USDT stablecoin, Toncoin (TON), and even non-fungible tokens (NFTs) directly in chats. It also includes built-in tools for viewing market charts, analyzing tokens, and making low-fee swaps through Ston.fi, a decentralized exchange (DEX) built on the TON blockchain with a total value locked (TVL) of $65 million.
