These updates aim to enhance the user experience for the over 100 million users who have signed up for the Wallet on Telegram, many of whom are new to the crypto ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Launched in 2023 on the TON blockchain, the wallet initially focused on the Toncoin cryptocurrency, which is used within the Telegram platform for tipping creators, paying for mini-games, and apps, and also supports Bitcoin and USDT on the TON blockchain. Since its launch, the wallet has expanded its support to include other currencies like Notcoin, catering to a broader range of user needs.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1341\" height=\"2718\" src=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?w=335\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2979928\" srcset=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg 1341w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=74,150 74w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=148,300 148w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=768,1557 768w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=335,680 335w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=592,1200 592w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=632,1280 632w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=212,430 212w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=355,720 355w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=444,900 444w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=395,800 395w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=758,1536 758w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=1010,2048 1010w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=330,668 330w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=185,375 185w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=304,617 304w, https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Wallet-\u00b7-Asset-Page.jpeg?resize=262,531 262w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1341px) 100vw, 1341px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><span class=\"wp-element-caption__text\">Image Credits: TOP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following the recent update, users of the Telegram Wallet will have the ability to buy, sell, or hold cryptocurrencies without the need for on-chain deposits, simplifying the process for new users to engage in crypto holding and trading.

With this update, Wallet operates as a fully-fledged crypto platform within Telegram, maintaining its simplicity and accessibility. Furthermore, plans are in place to implement a loyalty program specifically for Toncoin holders to further boost the adoption of the TON Ecosystem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new wallet update is scheduled to roll out to users in March and April, with the possibility of some features being restricted in certain countries due to local regulations. This comes after Telegram founder Pavel Durov announced in December that the company had become profitable, with over 950 million monthly active users. Cryptocurrencies have significantly contributed to the company\u2019s revenue, thanks to integrations with content and mini-app payments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the crypto landscape continues to evolve, Telegram&#8217;s foray into cryptocurrency services, including the enhancement of its wallet, positions the platform as a significant player in the digital financial ecosystem, offering users a streamlined and accessible way to engage with cryptocurrencies directly within the app.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2025\/03\/13\/telegram-introduces-trading-and-yield-features-for-its-self-custodial-crypto-wallet\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Source Link<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The self-custodial cryptocurrency wallet developed by The Open Platform (TOP) for Telegram has introduced several new features, including multi-asset trading and yield functions, targeting individuals who utilize Telegram beyond its&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":9829,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[3143,865,1473,3144],"class_list":["post-9828","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","tag-crypto-trading","tag-cryptocurrency","tag-telegram","tag-wallet"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/03\/Telegram-wallet.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9828","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9828"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9828\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9829"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9828"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9828"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9828"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
