Wallet Telegram Rolls Perpetual Futures
Wallet in Telegram is launching perpetual futures with Lighter, adding leveraged trading to its integrated custodial Crypto Wallet setup, allowing users to open long and short positions with up to 50x leverage across more than 50 assets, including crypto, tokenized stocks, and commodities.
Introduction to Perpetual Futures
The rollout pushes perpetuals deeper into consumer apps, extending Telegram’s move from wallet access toward embedded trading and tokenized market participation inside chat. This integration enables users to trade crypto assets such as Bitcoin and Toncoin, alongside tokenized stocks and commodities, from within the app.

The new feature expands Wallet in Telegram beyond basic custody and transfers into a more complex part of market structure. 50+ markets are available, including metals, stocks, oil, and crypto, with up to 50x leverage and starting from $1. Andrew Rogozov, CEO of The Open Platform, described perpetual trading as a category that has traditionally intimidated retail users.
Benefits of the Integration

Its chief executive, Vladimir Novakovski, said the setup allows users to move from chat to market in seconds, making position-taking feel almost as seamless as messaging. Perpetual futures let traders speculate on price movements without owning the underlying asset.
