Remarkable Surge: Telegram Gifts Trading Volume Hits 10M TON in 2025
Telegram-native NFTs, known as Telegram Gifts, have officially surpassed 10 million TON in total trading volume — a remarkable milestone for the TON ecosystem. More than just a temporary trend, this reflects Telegram’s steady evolution into a full-fledged crypto environment with real activity, community participation, and economic value.
What Are Telegram Gifts and Why Are They Unique?
Telegram Gifts are blockchain-based collectibles that users can send, trade, and display right inside Telegram. These gifts are built on the TON blockchain and tightly integrated with Telegram bots and mini apps. No external wallets, no extensions — just open a bot and own a gift in seconds.
Many collections are themed — including Easter Gifts, animal styles, and more — and released via drops or giveaways. Scarcity and creativity drive the value. Most importantly, they are social by nature: they live inside conversations.
How Did Telegram Gifts Reach 10M TON?
The growth was organic but fueled by smart infrastructure:
- Mini apps like Tonnel Network with auto-buy, price tracking, and stats
- Clean Stars from Fragment ensure fair and safe trades
- TON-to-Stars conversion allows easy onboarding
- Influencer and channel giveaways boosted awareness
What Are Clean Stars and Why Do They Matter?
Clean Stars are Stars purchased directly through Fragment — not bonus or refunded Stars. These are the only Stars accepted in official Telegram Marketplace listings and bots like Tonnel. The use of clean Stars builds trust, removes refund risks, and ensures accurate market stats.
When users buy gifts through bots, TON is converted automatically into clean Stars in the background. This keeps the experience smooth and compliant.
Why Telegram Gifts Are More Than Just NFTs
Telegram Gifts aren’t just art assets — they’re part of an attention economy. Some are used as loyalty rewards, some as access tokens for closed groups, and others just for fun. Their power lies in context and community.
Because they live inside Telegram, they are easier to use and share than typical NFTs. That’s why adoption is growing faster — no need for wallets, no crypto knowledge required. Just click and collect.
