Telegram introduces trading and yield features for its self-custodial crypto wallet
March 13, 2025 – Telegram’s self-custodial crypto wallet, developed by a third-party company called The Open Platform (TOP), has rolled out new trading and yield features. This update enhances the functionality of the Wallet to meet consumer expectations for an open and wide market.
As per the announcement, users will be able to buy, sell or hold cryptocurrencies without any on-chain deposits, making it easier for newer users to get into crypto holding and trading. Additionally, the company is introducing an earning component to the wallet for holding a certain amount of Toncoin. Although the yield percentage has not been specified nor the requirements to start earning, TOP plans to add yields for USDT holdings later this year.
The Telegram Wallet has undergone a makeover with a new navigation bar at the bottom and an easy way to switch between the Wallet, Trade, and Earn sections.
