Telegram Creates 1M Self-Custodial Wallets in 48 Hours, Leveraging Auto-Activation Feature

According to Telegram founder Pavel Durov, more than 1 million self-custodial wallets were created on the messaging platform within 48 hours. Wallets activate automatically when users receive Grams, eliminating the need for manual setup. This mechanism removes barriers to crypto adoption by allowing new users to hold and transfer assets without leaving Telegram.

The Open Network (TON), powering Telegram's wallet, averaged 4.06 million daily transactions in October and added approximately 2.73 million new wallets throughout the month—its strongest monthly performance since October 2024. Stablecoin activity also expanded, with daily users reaching 37,693 in October, up 23.44% from September, indicating growing utility beyond token speculation.
