The product offers investors exposure to Toncoin with a 2% staking yield. Trades are available in US dollars through the European exchange.
Toncoin serves as the native cryptocurrency of The Open Network. This blockchain platform connects closely with the Telegram messaging app.
The launch comes during a difficult year for Toncoin. The token’s market cap has fallen 59% year-to-date to $5.7 billion according to CoinGecko data.
CoinShares highlighted Telegram’s user base of over 900 million active users in their announcement. The company also pointed to TON’s transaction capacity of more than 104,000 transactions per second.
The new ETP generates automatic yield through network validation rewards. This marks CoinShares’ second product offering TON exposure to investors.
Toncoin Already Available in Multi-Asset Fund
TON appears in the CoinShares Altcoins ETF (DIME) that launched in October. This US-traded product includes multiple cryptocurrencies including Solana, Polkadot, Cardano, and Cosmos.
The timing coincides with Wallet in Telegram’s expansion into traditional assets. The third-party crypto wallet app on Telegram now offers tokenized stocks and ETFs through xStocks.
Wallet in Telegram announced Monday it would provide 50 tokenized shares and ETFs. Some of these offerings include dividends for holders.
Toncoin reacted to the news with a 5% price increase to $2.30 on Tuesday. The token currently trades around $2.25 according to recent market data.
Price Action Shows Modest Recovery
Recent 24-hour trading data shows Toncoin moving between $2.22 and $2.28. Late-session buying pushed prices toward the higher end of this range.
The situation on $TON is starting to shift for the better:

While we are seeing positive growth in trading volume, it's not enough for a full-blown memecoin season on $TON:
