Telegram Wallet Turns Wall Street On-Chain
Apple, Tesla, Nvidia, and the S&P 500 — now tradable inside Telegram. Tokenized, fractional, and composable with DeFi.
⚡ Quick Hits
- 📲 Launch: Late October 2025, gradual rollout
- 📈 Assets: $AAPL, $TSLA, $NVDA + S&P 500 ETFs
- 🕒 Trading: 24/5 — no more Wall Street closing bell
- 🤝 Partners: Kraken, Backed, xStocks Alliance
- 🌍 Reach: 164M+ TON Wallet users
🔓 Breaking the Market Hours Cage
Traditional stocks lock you into opening bells, custodians, and borders.
Telegram Wallet just blew that up.
The new Stocks & ETFs section lets users:
- Trade U.S. equities as 1:1 backed tokens
- Hold them self-custodially inside Telegram
- Fractionalize ownership, so even $10 gets you exposure to $AAPL or $NVDA
- Plug stocks straight into TON DeFi apps
Think of it as Wall Street meets Web3, right in your chat app.
🏦 How It Works
The integration is powered by Kraken (custody + on/off ramps), Backed (tokenized infrastructure), and xStocks (the engine for equities).
Users can:
- Deposit/withdraw tokenized shares via Kraken or other CEXs
- Swap them in Telegram like any token
- Collateralize equities in TON DeFi (loans, yield strategies, vaults)
- Earn tokenized dividends on eligible stocks
This isn’t just a gimmick — it’s a full TradFi-to-DeFi bridge.
🌐 Why It Matters
- Democratization of Capital Markets
Billions can now touch U.S. equities directly — no brokers, no middlemen, just wallets.
- TON Ecosystem Supercharge
Collateralized xStocks flow into DeFi apps, multiplying liquidity and strategies.
- Pressure on TradFi
If Telegram offers 24/5 tokenized stocks, how long until brokers are forced to modernize?
- Fractional Access = New Investors
For young retail traders worldwide, this lowers the barrier to blue-chip stocks.
🧠 Bigger Picture
Tokenized equities are the stablecoins of Wall Street:
- Stablecoins moved dollars on-chain.
- Tokenized stocks will move equities on-chain.
With Telegram’s 164M+ Wallet users, this could be the largest retail distribution of tokenized assets ever.
Wall Street is no longer bound to Wall Street. It’s in your pocket, inside your chat app, composable with DeFi, and global by default.
TL;DR
- Telegram Wallet adds tokenized Apple, Tesla, Nvidia, and S&P 500 ETFs
- Powered by Kraken, Backed, xStocks
- 24/5 trading, fractional, permissionless, self-custodial
- Stocks become collateral for DeFi in TON
- Pressure mounts on brokers as Telegram turns Wall Street into a global, always-on market
