Wallet in Telegram (The Open Platform) launched cross-chain deposits in its self-custodial TON Wallet, letting users fund TON with USDC or USDT from Ethereum, Solana, TRON, BSC, Polygon, Arbitrum and Base. The integration (powered by MoonPay) converts incoming stablecoins 1:1 into USDT (TON) and handles transfers behind the scenes with no bridges or manual swaps. Upcoming features include withdrawals of USDT (TON) to USDT/USDC on other chains (fees apply) and auto-conversion of BTC/ETH/SOL deposits into Toncoin.
