Telegram’s @wallet (bot) has expanded its cryptocurrency offering by adding USDT, BTC and TON to its platform. This development was announced via an email shared with AZCoin News on Wednesday. With this integration, Telegram users can now send each other USDT, BTC, TON within chats in the messaging app, making it easier for them to buy and sell cryptocurrencies.

Integrating crypto payments into messaging apps like Telegram could be a significant development in mainstream adoption, as it allows users to send and receive cryptocurrencies as easily as sending a text or a photograph. The addition of USDT, BTC and TON could prove to be an important development for Telegram’s crypto service, as it offers users the benefits of cryptocurrencies without the price volatility that often comes with them.

Telegram’s journey in the cryptocurrency space began with the development of the Open Network (TON) blockchain project. However, the project was abandoned in 2020 due to legal battles with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Despite this setback, the TON Foundation, comprising members of its community, has continued to advance the project.

Although Telegram is not directly involved in TON, the company maintains an interest in the network. For instance, it built its blockchain-based auction platform, Fragment, on top of the TON blockchain late last year.

In conclusion, the addition cryptocurrencies to Telegram’s @wallet (bot) is a positive development for users who wish to keep their money in the crypto ecosystem but without risking it being on the receiving end of any sharp swings in value. It also signifies Telegram’s continued interest in the cryptocurrency space, despite the challenges it has faced in the past.
