TON Wallet Integrates Tokenized Stock Trading
The Telegram-based TON Wallet has officially introduced tokenized U.S. stock and ETF trading through xStocks, a service created in partnership with Kraken and Backed. This integration marks a major milestone in the expansion of blockchain-powered financial products into mainstream social applications.
The feature allows users to access tokenized versions of major U.S. equities and exchange-traded funds directly from Telegram, combining the accessibility of messaging apps with the innovation of decentralized finance.
How xStocks Works on TON
xStocks enables trading of digital assets that are pegged to real-world securities, meaning users can gain exposure to U.S. stocks without leaving the TON ecosystem. Each tokenized asset mirrors the price and performance of its underlying traditional security, bringing real-world finance into the Telegram environment.
Kraken and Backed provide the infrastructure and regulatory framework for these tokenized assets, ensuring transparency and compliance while maintaining the decentralized nature of the TON blockchain.
Bridging Traditional Finance and Web3
This move demonstrates Telegram’s growing role in the crypto and Web3 ecosystem, turning its platform into more than just a messaging service. By merging social communication with financial functionality, TON Wallet and xStocks could set a new precedent for how users interact with tokenized real-world assets.
With tokenized trading expanding into widely used platforms, the line between traditional finance and decentralized systems continues to blur — and Telegram’s TON Wallet is leading that charge.
