📖 Weekly #glossary: simplifying crypto terms
Bitcoin is gearing up for a halving, where miner rewards decrease, possibly leading to an ATH. It may sound complex, so we've got another edition of our #glossary to clear it all up:
Miners — users with specialized equipment who maintain the blockchain and receive rewards.
Bitcoin halving — an event occurring every 4 years. After a halving, miner rewards are halved. Historically, Bitcoin's price has surged after each halving. The next halving is slated for April (just a few weeks away).
ATH (All-Time High) — the highest price ever recorded for a coin. Currently, Bitcoin's ATH sits at $73,737.
Our community believes Bitcoin will hit ATH soon. Just a reminder: you can buy Bitcoin easily with Wallet 💎
📖 Crypto #glossary kickoff
Each week, we'll briefly explain a few useful crypto terms. You can find the topic of interest using the hashtag #glossary in the title. Today, let's break down the difference between two types of crypto wallets:
Custodial Wallet — a custodial wallet is managed by a third party. Using a custodial wallet offers simplicity and convenience, and you have the option to regain access. This makes it an ideal option for beginners.
Non-custodial Wallet — a non-custodial wallet is managed solely by you. Access is granted via a secret phrase (or seed phrase), and all transactions occur on the blockchain. Losing your secret phrase means losing access to your assets, however, such wallets provide enhanced control over your digital assets, making them perfect for experienced users.
Simply put, Wallet is a custodial service, while TON Space is non-custodial 💎

💎 Major TON Space Update
Over the last two weeks, TON Space has received several major updates. Some of our subscribers have already noticed them, and for everyone else, here’s what has changed:
Token filtering and hiding. Navigating your tokens has become more convenient: assets can be collapsed, and tokens with a zero balance are automatically hidden. This update is particularly handy for users who have a large number of tokens.
Connected apps. The TON Space settings now display a complete list of apps (dApps) connected to your wallet: managing connections is now possible without leaving Telegram.
TON Connect redesign. This update brings an improved transaction confirmation screen, now providing real-time visibility into all transaction details.
Detailed transaction history. Transactions in TON Space are now neatly organized, providing a clear overview of all your activities, including swaps, bids on Fragment, token transfers and much more.
Display of TON Domain on the main screen. If you have a domain name, your TON Domain will now be displayed on the main screen instead of the address itself. For example, alicia.ton instead of UQds…v6fd.
We almost forgot: You can already buy Telegram Premium, an anonymous number, or a unique username using TON Space at Fragment 😉

Integration with The Open Platform. This partnership positions our application to secure additional resources, forge new partnerships, access top-notch expertise, and accelerate product development.
P2P Market update – we’ve launched express purchases (available in certain regions), added the “Trusted merchant” badge, supported dozens of new currencies and payment methods, and implemented hundreds of other updates.
Wallet Pay launch – convenient cryptocurrency payment for goods and services within Telegram. Thanks to Wallet Pay, merchants are now seamlessly accepting cryptocurrency payments, while customers are effortlessly paying for their goods and services.
Exciting releases, important events, and noteworthy news are on the horizon for 2024. And, of course, none of this incredible progress would have been possible without your invaluable contribution.❤️
Wishing you a Happy New Year, and we look forward to a fantastic 2024 with all of you! 🚗🎆
🪄 Open Wallet with a single tap
Android device users can now access Wallet without even opening Telegram first. Check out the video on how you can open Wallet directly from your home screen (yes, just in one tap). Here's a simple guide:
● Update Telegram to the latest version
● Open Wallet and tap on the "⋮" icon in the upper right corner
● Select "Add to Home Screen"
That's it! In the pop-up window, you can choose where you'd like to add the Wallet shortcut – either directly on your home screen or in the app page.
📖 Let us know in the comments what features you would like to see in future updates. We will carefully read every comment, and who knows, your idea might be the one that makes it into a future update!
TON withdrawals are now fully operational. Transactions are taking place smoothly and any remaining pending operations will be processed in due course automatically.
Over the past few hours we have updated our infrastructure. It took more time than expected, however, our team has completed the necessary work, and all TON transactions work as they should. Thank you for your understanding and patience🫡
💎 Bitcoin hits $72,800!
Bitcoin has reached a new ATH of $72,000 for the first time since November 2021, surpassing the $65,000 mark. Many are now wondering whether it's too late to invest. However, 70% of our channel's subscribers believe the price will climb to $80,000.
While Wallet does not predict future and cannot offer financial advice, we can provide some insights into halving. For those unfamiliar, halving refers to the reduction of Bitcoin miner rewards by half (find out more here), which in turn makes mining more costly and reduces the number of new coins entering the market.
✂️ The initial halving event took place in 2012 when Bitcoin's value was just $12—that's 6000 times less than today's peak. Six months after that, its value increased to $120. Subsequent halvings in 2016 and 2020 also saw price increases, but not as dramatic. After the second halving, the price went from $650 to $950, and following the third, from $9,100 to $15,000.
The fourth halving is expected to occur in April. Some analysts suggest caution, noting the market now has more participants and halving effects might already be priced in. However, the recent market dynamics indicate a more optimistic outlook among users compared to analysts.
We invite you to share your predictions in the comments: Do you think Bitcoin will surpass $100,000? What are your thoughts on buying it through Wallet? 💎
🎉 The Wallet Raffle has officially ended!
Our raffle has come to a close, let’s look at the results and reveal the lucky winners:
● We hosted 4 exciting prize rounds.
● Throughout the event, we raffled off $10,000 in TON.
● Today, 135 fortunate winners shared $4,000 in TON among them.
📌 We livestreamed the drawing and the list of winning tickets and reminding that all winners have already received their prizes in their Wallets: Check it out

🙏 Wallet's P2P Market: a Guide to Buying or Selling Cryptocurrency
A lot of newcomers have joined us over the past month – we welcome new users and want to remind you that buying or selling cryptocurrency in Wallet is easy and straightforward. While the payment methods may vary across regions, our P2P Market is available in most of them. Let's dive into the details.
What is the P2P Market?
The P2P Market platform features offerings for buying or selling cryptocurrency among Wallet users. Here, you can discover offers with various rates and payment methods (or create your own). Additionally, you can check a particular seller's rating and order history. Access the P2P Market by tapping "Add crypto" or “Sell” on the main screen of your Wallet.
How to Buy Crypto on the P2P Market
It’s really easy. Choose an offering, carefully review the seller's terms, and reply to it. Transfer funds to the seller’s account specified in the offering and confirm the payment. Once the seller confirms the payment, the cryptocurrency will be transferred to your Wallet.
When choosing a seller or buyer on the P2P Marketplace in Wallet, it's important to consider the rating and number of trades. You can also consider selecting a Trusted Merchant (marked with a special badge) boasting a high rating and an extensive history of successful trades.
