Starting October, Telegram Users Will Be Able to Trade Tokenized U.S. Stocks

The developers of Telegram are preparing to transform the messenger’s crypto wallet into a gateway to traditional finance.

Thanks to a partnership with Kraken and tokenization platform Backed, beginning in October, millions of eligible users will be able to trade tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs directly within the app.

At launch, the custodial version of the wallet will support around 60 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs, with later expansion to include the “self-custodial” TON Wallet.

This integration is designed to democratize global access to capital markets, since many people worldwide lack banking services or are limited to microloans, without opportunities for long-term investments.

With the project’s rollout, users will gain access to tokenized versions of Apple (AAPL), Tesla (TSLA), the S&P 500 index (SPY), TON Strategy Co (TON), and a range of multinational companies.

For Telegram, this step marks its entry into the forefront of financial transformation — combining traditional market access with the speed, transparency, and global reach of blockchain.
