According to Cointelegraph, Telegram now requires third-party crypto wallets to use TON Connect and restricts mini-programs on the TON blockchain, raising concerns about decentralization and exclusivity in the crypto community.

It is reported that the new requirement is part of Telegram's collaboration with the TON Foundation, making TON the only supported blockchain network for its communication services.

A spokesperson for the TON Foundation said: "Wallets within Telegram are not affected because these wallets are based on TON and only support decentralized application interaction through TON Connect. However, third-party wallets that do not adopt TON Connect will no longer be supported in the future."
