Catenaa, Thursday, February 19, 2026-Wallet in Telegram announced Tuesday the launch of cross-chain deposits for its self-custodial TON Wallet, allowing users to fund wallets with crypto from major blockchains without manual conversions or bridges.
The Seychelles based company said the integration, powered by MoonPay, supports stablecoins and cryptocurrencies from Ethereum, Solana, TRON, BSC, Polygon, Arbitrum, and Base. USDC and USDT are converted at a 1:1 rate to USDT (TON), while BTC, ETH, and SOL deposits are converted automatically into Toncoin.
Withdrawals to other chains will be supported soon.
Wallet in Telegram said the update opens access for over 100 million users, removing the prior requirement to already hold TON assets. The system manages cross-chain transfers behind the scenes, minimizing friction, conversion losses, and fees.
Founder Andrew Rogozov said the feature simplifies onboarding into the TON ecosystem, making self-custodial wallets as seamless as traditional custodial accounts.
MoonPay CEO Ivan Soto-Wright noted the integration allows users to leverage existing assets while the technical transfer is handled automatically.
The deposit flow includes stablecoin and other crypto options, automatic address generation, and QR code support.
Funds arrive in TON-compatible assets and can be used across DeFi, gaming, payments, and other on-chain applications.
The update is native to Telegram’s interface and part of the dual-wallet setup, combining multi-chain trading with access to TON’s ecosystem. Wallet in Telegram said the launch represents a key step toward broad Web3 adoption via its platform.
