What it is and who it is for
Wallet is the built-in Telegram mini-app, operated by an independent team — The Open Platform / TG Wallet entity — not by Telegram itself and not by the TON Foundation. The headline feature is zero onboarding friction: receive TON inside a chat, send to @username, buy with a card. The price of that simplicity is the custodial model: the service holds the keys, not you. Great for first contact, P2P and small balances, but it breaks the “not your keys, not your coins” rule. Wallet supports card on-ramp, USDT TRC-20 / Tron transfers and a built-in P2P market. For staking, NFTs or any deeper DeFi you’ll need to move funds out to Tonkeeper or MyTonWallet. Use it as an onboarding wallet and a today-only pocket — not as long-term storage.
