Walt has launched a standalone application, expanding its crypto services beyond Telegram to include tokenized stocks, ETFs and AI-assisted trading. The launch gives users access to a broader range of financial products while allowing existing customers to continue using the service through Telegram.
The platform previously operated as Wallet in Telegram for nearly five years. However, the company adopted the Walt name on September 28 as it expanded beyond basic cryptocurrency storage.
Walt Adds Tokenized Stocks and Trading Products
Walt’s website lists more than 200 cryptocurrencies and over 100 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs. Additionally, users can trade perpetual futures linked to cryptocurrencies, metals and energy markets.

The platform also offers yield products involving stablecoins, Gram, Solana, Ethereum and Tron. Moreover, users can transfer cryptocurrency to other Telegram accounts without paying transfer fees.
External blockchain transfers, however, carry network charges and additional service fees. For example, Walt charges 1 USDT for external USDT transfers through TON.
AI Assistants Support Automated Trading
The standalone launch follows Walt’s October 20 introduction of AI-assisted perpetual trading. Users can connect Mira, ChatGPT and Claude to analyze prices, review positions and execute trades.
However, Walt keeps trade execution disabled by default. Its AI agents also cannot withdraw funds or initiate transfers.
Meanwhile, Telegram CEO Pavel Durov reported that users created over 700,000 self-custodial wallets within 48 hours. He explained that Telegram activates these wallets when users receive Gram, its native cryptocurrency.
