xStocks Are Live on TON: Real-World Stocks, Now On-Chain

For years, owning real stocks on-chain sounded promising but impractical. Complex setups, limited access, and fragmented user experiences kept traditional equities out of everyday crypto usage.

That changes now.

xStocks have launched on TON, bringing tokenized U.S. equities directly into the wallets people already use. Apple, Tesla, Microsoft, and hundreds of other major stocks can now be traded inside TON Wallet, Tonkeeper, and MyTONWallet, without separate trading apps, brokerage accounts, or geographic restrictions.

For Telegram's 1 billion+ users, stock trading becomes as simple as sending a message.

Real-World Assets, Finally Accessible

Traditional stock investing often requires specialized platforms, lengthy onboarding, and regional limitations. xStocks take a different approach. They are tokenized representations of real U.S. equities that can be held, traded, and controlled directly from a TON wallet.

In practice, this means owning exposure to companies like Apple or Tesla in a digital form that works wherever TON works. Users maintain direct control over their assets and can withdraw to traditional brokerage infrastructure when needed.

TON becomes the first major blockchain network to make stock ownership this accessible inside a consumer-first environment where people already chat, transact, and learn every day.

On-Chain Stocks, Without the Complexity

xStocks remove the friction that makes traditional stock trading difficult for many users.

  • No trading accounts: Open TON Wallet, Tonkeeper, or MyTONWallet tap xStocks, and start trading.

  • No geographic limits: Access U.S. equities regardless of location or local financial infrastructure.

  • No intermediaries: Tokenized stocks are held directly in your wallet, not controlled by a broker.

  • No separate apps: Stocks live alongside TON, stablecoins, and other digital assets.

The experience mirrors a simple token swap, but the underlying assets are real ownership stakes in public companies.

You Hold It, You Control It

xStocks operate with full transparency and self-custody. When a user purchases a tokenized equity, ownership is recorded on-chain and controlled entirely through the wallet.

The tokenization framework is powered by Backed Finance under full regulatory compliance, with institutional validation provided by Kraken. Each X-Stock represents legal ownership of underlying U.S. equities, not a synthetic exposure or derivative structure.

As Max Crown, President and CEO of TON Foundation, explains:

"Bringing xStocks fully on-chain represents a major advancement for real-world asset adoption on TON. Over one billion users can now hold and trade tokenized U.S. equities with the same ease as sending a message in Telegram, instantly, globally, and entirely in self-custody."

Beyond Simple Trading

xStocks unlock functionality that traditional brokerages cannot offer. Because they exist on-chain, they can be traded on decentralized exchanges, combined with other digital assets, or held within a single unified wallet.

Users can rebalance portfolios by swapping between stocks without converting to fiat, access liquidity directly through TON's ecosystem, and interact with on-chain applications using tokenized equities as part of broader strategies.

This composability allows traditional assets to participate in decentralized finance without sacrificing ownership or transparency.

Any Wallet Can Integrate

xStocks launch as a network-level capability across TON. Major wallets such as TON Wallet and Tonkeeper support them natively from day one, while developers can integrate tokenized equities into any wallet, application, or bot.

This ecosystem-wide approach ensures that xStocks are available wherever TON operates. Developers can add equity trading to existing applications or build new products entirely around tokenized stock experiences.

TON provides the infrastructure, tooling, and documentation to make integration straightforward for teams across the ecosystem.

Setting a New Accessibility Standard

xStocks represent a shift in how blockchain can expand access to traditional finance rather than complicate it. By combining Telegram's distribution, mobile-first design, and a simplified user experience, TON addresses the real barriers that keep many people out of stock markets.

This is not about replacing traditional finance. It is about removing unnecessary friction. Users who would never download a brokerage app or complete complex onboarding can now access global equities directly from tools they already trust.

With this launch, TON positions itself as the most accessible network for real-world asset adoption at scale.
