Telegram Wallet Brings Tokenized U.S. Stocks To Millions
Telegram’s integrated crypto wallet, Wallet, is rolling out a new feature that lets users buy and hold tokenized versions of U.S. stocks and funds starting in October 2025, expanding access to capital markets directly inside the app used by hundreds of millions daily.
Wallet is collaborating with Kraken and infrastructure provider Backed to support issuance, liquidity, and trading, enabling 24/7 access to tokenized shares within Telegram’s interface.
Users will be able to access more than 60 tokenized instruments at launch, including Apple and Tesla shares and an S&P 500 index fund, with the stated goal of democratizing investment access for users underserved by traditional brokers.
Wallet representatives say the feature could be especially useful for lower‑income users who lack full access to legacy services.
Backed provides the technology to issue tokens backed by real‑world assets, while Kraken facilitates integration and trading so tokenized shares are accessible in‑app.
Developers describe the integration as one of the largest consumer implementations of tokenized shares to date, aligning with a broader market already valued in the hundreds of billions across tokenized stocks, ETFs, and bonds.
Kraken Co‑CEO Arjun Sethi characterized the launch as “meeting users where they already are,” noting the potential reach of bringing investment tools into an app with massive daily engagement.
