Wallet in Telegram today announces its rebranding to Walt. The move reflects the product’s evolution from a simple wallet into a full-scale, all-in-one crypto platform, and marks the next phase of its roadmap across AI-powered trading, crypto cards, multi-chain assets and payments. The rebrand comes as Telegram launches its native Gram wallet, available soon to all Telegram users. Together, the two launches denote a significant new chapter for the Telegram ecosystem, bringing two distinct products to its financial layer.
- Telegram’s Gram wallet is the entry point for 1 billion users: an easy way to buy Gram as the core ecosystem token, send Gifts, buy Stars, transfer funds to friends and transact within thousands of Telegram apps and services.
- Walt is the full-scale crypto platform for users who want to go further – from trading and earning yield to using tokenized assets, spending through crypto cards and accessing new AI-powered ways to manage and trade their portfolios.
Together, the two products reflect a shared vision for making crypto accessible directly within Telegram. As a part of that vision, Walt also provides the infrastructure that lets Telegram users top up their Gram wallet directly from Walt.
Walt: an all-in-one crypto app for Telegram users
Walt is built for mainstream crypto users native to the Telegram ecosystem. Its capabilities go beyond Telegram's features and provide access to more advanced crypto tools within a familiar messaging interface.
Walt offers:
- Deposits, holdings and withdrawals: access to 300+ assets across 4 chains
- Crypto trading: 200+ most popular assets
- RWAs: 100+ tokenized stocks, ETFs, and Metals
- Yield-bearing Earn products with interest on USD-pegged stablecoins, Gram, Tether Gold, Solana, Ethereum, and Tron
- Perpetual futures trading with 70+ assets available, including Oil, Natural Gas, Metals
- Coming soon:
○ Crypto cards: a forthcoming card rollout will extend Walt into everyday spending, giving users another way to use their crypto in the real world
○ AI-powered trading: Walt is also expanding how users interact with its trading products, with upcoming AI integrations designed to let users analyze markets, assess portfolio risk, discover trades and execute perpetuals through conversational interfaces
“Today, we’re bringing our brand in line with what the product has become. We started as a simple wallet for buying Toncoin and Bitcoin, but over the past four years we’ve grown into a full-scale crypto platform inside Telegram, supporting hundreds of assets alongside real-world assets, and launching Earn and perpetual trading. And this is only the beginning: in the coming weeks, we’ll share an updated product strategy that sets out where Walt is heading next,” said Andrew Rogozov, Founder and CEO of The Open Platform (TOP) and Walt. “We’ll continue to work alongside Telegram’s native wallet, giving users who want to go further access to more advanced crypto tools. Together, the two products create a natural path from getting started with crypto to exploring more of what the ecosystem has to offer.”
The first steps of the roadmap are already taking shape, through future expansions into AI-assisted trading and crypto cards phased rollout. These products will be introduced through dedicated launches as they become available.
As Telegram's financial ecosystem continues to take shape, Walt's role is to be the platform that grows alongside it.
