Key Takeaways:
TON Tech launched Agentic Wallets on April 28, 2026, giving AI agents on Telegram direct onchain spending access. The open standard lets developers build trading bots and DeFi agents on TON with no vendor lock-in and no custodial risk. TON Tech’s Andrew Grekov signals agents will execute payments and interact with onchain services inside Telegram’s 1 billion-user base. Telegram AI Agents Gain Direct TON PaymentsEach agent receives a dedicated onchain wallet funded directly by the user. The user keeps ownership through their main wallet. The agent transacts only within the balance the user assigns. Access can be revoked at any time. No intermediary holds funds at any point.
The setup process is designed to stay out of the way. A user asks their agent to create a wallet, funds it, and confirms the arrangement once. After that, the agent operates within its assigned scope without requiring further input for routine actions.
For individual users, the model allows multiple agents to run at once, each operating in its own isolated wallet with its own spending limit. Recurring payments and budget-capped automation become tasks users can assign and step back from.
Andrew Grekov, Head of TON Tech, described the shift plainly. “Agents on Telegram can not only communicate, but transact — making payments and interacting with onchain services on behalf of users, without ever touching their keys.”
