Getgems.io, the leading NFT marketplace on TON (The Open Network), has announced the launch of Telegram’s first NFT collection. Starting today, Telegram users can mint and purchase these NFTs using the $DOGS token, alongside TON, NOT, USDT, and various TON wallets.
The collection has generated significant interest, reaching over $1 million in pre-mint trading volume and a market cap of $10 million.
Alex, a representative of $DOGS, commented: “This launch marks a new chapter in digital collectibles, offering Telegram’s 950 million users easy access to NFTs. We’re excited to support this milestone as part of our 2025 expansion.”
Telegram’s gift feature, introduced last year, allows users to share unique digital gifts. Starting this month, users can pay a small fee to convert these gifts into tokenized NFTs, covering future gas costs on the TON blockchain. Since its launch, users have exchanged more than 20 million gifts, and emerging markets have facilitated the buying and selling of these tokens.
Getgems, with over 6.5 million connected wallets, has established itself as a key player in the TON ecosystem, facilitating access to NFTs and offering new opportunities for creators and brands.
In conclusion, the launch of Telegram’s first NFT collection on Getgems marks a major step in the integration of blockchain technology with massive messaging platforms. With the support of the $DOGS token and a strong market response, Telegram is offering its 950 million users easy access to digital collectibles.
This initiative not only strengthens the TON ecosystem but also opens new opportunities for creators and brands in the NFT space. Getgems, with its leadership in TON infrastructure, continues to solidify its role as a key player in the adoption of this technology, enabling the access and trading of digital assets to a global audience.
