Toncoin (TON) continues its bullish run, climbing to $3.4121 after Telegram began rolling out its integrated TON Wallet to 87 million users across the United States. This move marks a major milestone — the first time a self-custodial crypto wallet is embedded directly within a mainstream U.S. messaging app, according to CNBC.
Developed by The Open Platform (TOP) and powered by the TON blockchain, the wallet allows users to send and receive digital assets — including stablecoins — directly within Telegram’s interface, with no external apps or logins required. The wallet also supports staking, token swaps, debit card on/off-ramps, and seamless transactions via MoonPay, offering a full Web3 experience within Telegram through its Mini Apps.
TOP CEO Andrew Rogozov said the launch timing reflects a more favorable U.S. regulatory climate and aligns with Telegram’s rapidly growing, crypto-savvy user base. To reduce friction for new users, TON Wallet uses a split-key recovery model: one part tied to the Telegram account, the other to the user’s email — eliminating the need for complex seed phrases.
Toncoin’s price has surged 12.2% over the past week and 25.6% this month, driven by wallet adoption and broader investor enthusiasm. Technical analysis shows TON broke resistance at $3.34, rallying from $3.25 to $3.58 within 23 hours. Trading volume peaked at 46.32 million, followed by a brief 2.54% dip from $3.53 to $3.44, suggesting a temporary pullback amid an overall bullish trend.
With seamless functionality and increasing adoption, TON is positioning itself as a user-friendly bridge to Web3 for Telegram’s vast global audience — and markets are taking notice.
