Members of the Telegram community called The TON Foundation have since continued to advance the TON project.<\/p>\n<p>And although Telegram is not directly involved in TON, it still maintains an interest in the blockchain network, especially seeing that the messaging app last year announced it was building a blockchain-based auction platform called Fragment.<\/p>\n<h2>Cryptocurrencies allowed on @wallet bot<\/h2>\n<p>Last year (2022), <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/telegram-introduces-crypto-payments-using-ton-foundations-native-token-toncoin\/\">Telegram added Bitcoin (BTC) and Toncoin (TON) to the @wallet bot<\/a>. In addition to addition, Telegram users are allowed users to send Toncoin (TON) within chats.<\/p>\n<p>Today, March 22, 2023, Telegram has added Tether\u2019s USDT to the list of cryptocurrencies allowed on the @wallet bot marketplace. The stablecoin has also been added to the list of tokens that can be sent within Telegram\u2019s chats.<\/p>\n<p>Stablecoins like USDT offers a number of benefits since they are relatively immune to price volatility that often affects the likes of bitcoin and Ethereum. Including USDT in the @wallet bot, therefore, presents a lot of benefits for Telegram users involved in cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/tethers-usdt-receives-major-boost-from-telegram\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : CoinJournal: Latest Bitcoin, Ethereum &amp; Crypto News ) The Telegram messaging app facilitates buying and selling of crypto through its @wallet bot.
