Telegram has officially launched its built-in crypto wallet, TON Wallet, in the United States, making it easier than ever for users to manage digital assets directly inside the app. The move marks a major step in bringing crypto to mainstream messaging platforms in the U.S., and allows users to send stablecoins, swap tokens, and manage assets without external apps, downloads, or logins.
TON Wallet, developed by The Open Platform, works seamlessly within Telegram and supports zero-fee crypto purchases through MoonPay, with debit card on-ramps and instant token swaps. It avoids direct regulation by outsourcing compliance-sensitive services. Telegram’s U.S. user base has grown to over 87 million, and many are already active in the crypto space.
CEO Andrew Rogozov said improved regulatory clarity made the U.S. rollout possible, and called the launch a chance to offer a smooth crypto experience. Onboarding is simple, with no downloads or seed phrases, using a secure split-key backup system that blends financial tools with everyday messaging.
