Telegram gifts, jettons and TON DeFi do not live in MetaMask. You need a TON wallet. The straightforward household option is Tonkeeper.

Official: tonkeeper.com. Not “TON wallet” from search with a different icon.

Install

  1. The site → iOS / Android / extension, as they specify.
  2. Create a wallet, write the seed. On TON the phrase is the same idea as everywhere: whoever knows the words owns it.
  3. An address like UQ… / EQ… can be given out for a transfer and pasted into a tracker.
  4. The address needs TON for fees even if you only want to hold USDT on TON.

Swapping jettons: STON.fi. Gifts in the portfolio total are a separate story: what Telegram gifts are worth.
