Telegram’s Crypto Wallet Expands: 50+ Coins & Earn Feature
Telegram’s Crypto Wallet Levels Up: More Coins, More Rewards and Yield Opportunities Arrive in Wallet’s Next Evolution
Wallet in Telegram, a third-party cryptocurrency wallet Mini App, is expanding its services to support more digital assets and yield opportunities. The Open Platform (TOP), the largest venture builder in The Open Network (TON) ecosystem, announced the next-generation Wallet rollout on March 13. The new version will introduce at least 50 cryptocurrencies, including Ether (ETH), XRP (XRP), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Pepe (PEPE), along with an "Earn" feature for yield generation.
Initial Rollout Limited to In-App Transactions
Wallet in Telegram will initially allow users to trade and hold non-TON tokens within the app without on-chain deposits or withdrawals. Users will be restricted from transferring altcoins to external wallets and exchanges, limiting transactions to the custodial Wallet environment. This approach ensures seamless trading within the platform while maintaining its focus on the TON ecosystem.
The spokesperson for Wallet emphasized that the rollout is structured to enable controlled expansion and gradual integration of additional assets. The first phase includes 50 cryptocurrencies, with more to be added progressively in the coming months. The full list of supported tokens is being finalized to ensure a diverse trading portfolio.
Wallet’s decision to limit external transfers aligns with its strategy of prioritizing TON-native tokens while addressing consumer interest in alternative digital assets.
“We focus primarily on the TON Ecosystem and maintain a full range of operations for TON-native tokens within the custodial Wallet. At the same time, we see consumer interest in expanding the portfolio with other assets and want to provide them with such an option in trade-only mode.”
Expansion to 50+ Cryptocurrencies
The new version of Wallet in Telegram will introduce major cryptocurrencies, including Ether (ETH) and XRP (XRP), for in-app transactions. The integration will also feature popular memecoins such as Dogecoin (DOGE) and Pepe (PEPE), expanding user options. This update reflects the growing demand for diversified digital assets within the Telegram ecosystem.
TOP confirmed that the expansion aims to provide users access to widely recognized cryptocurrencies while ensuring a smooth trading experience. By incorporating leading digital assets, Wallet enhances its utility for casual users and active traders. The phased rollout ensures that users can gradually access new assets as they become available.
The Wallet team also optimizes transaction efficiency and ensures security measures align with industry standards. Including non-TON tokens offers users more trading choices without compromising the core focus on the TON ecosystem. The team continues to assess market trends and user demand to determine future expansions.
Wallet’s Earn: Minimum Deposit is 0.1 TON
The Telegram wallet will introduce an "Earn" feature, allowing users to generate yields on specific assets, starting with Toncoin (TON). This feature will offer flexible yield options with a minimum deposit requirement of 0.1 TON. Users can benefit from staking rewards while keeping their funds within the Wallet ecosystem.
The yield for TON deposits will be generated through staking, providing users with passive income opportunities. TOP confirmed that the Earn feature would expand to include other cryptocurrencies and stablecoins, such as Tether’s USDt (USDT). This expansion will provide additional earning options for users interested in diversified yield strategies.
The Wallet team is focused on making crypto trading and earning more accessible within Telegram’s ecosystem. By introducing yield-generating opportunities, Wallet enhances user engagement and financial benefits. The feature rollout will occur gradually, ensuring stability and security in the earning process.
