Transforming Telegram to Web3 with Toncoin
summary
Telegram integrates the TON blockchain, Telegram mini apps, and a Ton Space wallet (a non‑self‑custody wallet now in the main menu rollout starting November outside the US) to let users pay, authorize and get notifications without extra apps. Telegram gives 800 million users and priority access to the Telegram Ads platform for TON projects. Proof of concept: Fragment launched in five weeks, netting 120 million dollars and a 27x aftermarket lift. Ambition is to onboard 500 million users to TON within five years.
