Telegram’s Crypto Wallet Now Available to 900 Million Users – Fully Integrated Into the App

With Toncoin (TON) support, users can send crypto in chats, make payments, and trade directly within Telegram. 

Telegram brings Web3 to the masses

In early April 2025, Telegram officially announced that its Web3 crypto wallet, called “Wallet”, is now available to all of its 900+ million users. Fully integrated into the Telegram app, the wallet allows users to send and receive cryptocurrency directly through chat, without needing any third-party apps or browsers.

The main token supported is Toncoin (TON), the native cryptocurrency of The Open Network (TON) — a blockchain project closely linked to Telegram’s ecosystem.


What can Telegram Wallet do?

The Wallet feature is simple yet powerful. Users can now:

  • Send TON to friends just like they send photos or voice notes

  • Buy TON using a bank card directly in the app

  • Trade tokens within mini-apps built on TON

  • Store and send NFTs

  • Track balances and transaction history with a clean, chat-like interface

Thanks to the TON blockchain, all actions are fast and inexpensive, with a user-friendly experience tailored to non-technical users.


Web3 mini-apps inside Telegram

Telegram has also opened its doors to Web3 mini-apps, which run directly within the app. These include:

  • Blockchain-based games with token rewards

  • NFT marketplaces

  • DeFi tools for earning and exchanging assets

Together, they turn Telegram into a Web3 super-app, combining social messaging, crypto, and digital services in one place.


Why this matters

This launch is a major step for mainstream crypto adoption:

  • No need to download or understand external wallets

  • Web3 features become accessible to regular users

  • TON becomes one of the most easily available cryptocurrencies globally

Given Telegram’s popularity in regions like Eastern Europe, Asia, and Latin America, this integration could onboard millions of new crypto users in a short time.


Conclusion: Telegram is redefining the Web3 experience

With its Wallet now available to all users, Telegram has become the largest app with an integrated crypto wallet. It’s not just making crypto more accessible — it’s weaving it into daily digital life, where sending a token is as easy as sending a sticker. This could be the tipping point that brings Web3 from niche to normal.
