Telegram Wallet Lists Monad Token for In-App Trading

The partnership between Wallet in Telegram and Monad represents a strategic move to democratize access to cutting-edge blockchain technology. Announced from Panama City on November 24th, 2025, this collaboration enables Telegram users to deposit, withdraw, and trade MON tokens directly within the app’s interface. The integration goes beyond simple token listing, featuring dedicated native MON staking functionality and incentive programs designed to introduce Monad to Telegram’s diverse audience across both established and emerging crypto markets.

Halil Mirakhmed, Chief Strategy Officer at Wallet in Telegram, emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating that “Monad represents a defining moment for next-generation blockchain infrastructure.” He further explained that their mission is “to ensure that users everywhere can participate in the most important moments in crypto from day one.” This approach aligns with Wallet in Telegram’s broader strategy of serving as a universal gateway to digital assets, having gained over 140 million users in 2025 with ambitions to reach all of Telegram’s 1 billion-plus users.

Monad stands out as one of 2025’s most consequential blockchain debuts, setting new performance standards for EVM-compatible networks. The platform’s parallel and asynchronous execution model enables Ethereum-style smart contracts to operate at significantly higher throughput, targeting 10,000 transactions per second with sub-second latency and low fees. Crucially, it achieves this while maintaining full bytecode-level EVM compatibility and decentralization, making it accessible to the vast existing Ethereum developer ecosystem.

The project has attracted substantial institutional backing, with more than $225 million raised from prominent investors including Paradigm, Dragonfly, and Electric Capital. As the first project to launch through Coinbase’s new ICO platform, Monad conducted a $188 million public sale following a testnet that processed over 5 billion transactions. The network will also distribute an airdrop to more than 230,000 eligible users, further expanding its initial distribution and community engagement.

Wallet in Telegram, backed by The Open Platform, has rapidly evolved into a comprehensive digital asset solution natively embedded into Telegram’s interface. The platform offers a dual-wallet experience with Crypto Wallet for trading and sending crypto to contacts, and TON Wallet as a self-custodial wallet with access to the TON ecosystem of dApps and tokens. This infrastructure enables users to discuss trading opportunities directly in Telegram while executing TGE trades natively within the app, keeping conversation and execution in one unified place.

Keone Hon, Co-founder of Monad, highlighted the strategic importance of this integration, noting that “Wallet in Telegram makes Monad uniquely accessible to a broad retail audience at launch.” He emphasized that “starting from the launch, Telegram users around the world can engage with Monad’s technology through a familiar interface” which advances their goal “to build fast, simple and scalable blockchain systems.”

The platform’s expansion beyond cryptocurrencies to include xStocks for selected NASDAQ equities and participation in blue-chip token generation events like the Monad TGE demonstrates its ambition to become a comprehensive financial interface. With a deeply global user base and presence in regions where early participation in major crypto events has often been limited, Wallet in Telegram offers a meaningful expansion of Monad’s retail footprint, particularly in emerging markets that have traditionally faced barriers to accessing cutting-edge crypto infrastructure.
