TonTrader: Trading in Telegram and the Blum Connection

TonTrader is a platform for cryptocurrency trading within Telegram. At the start of 2025, the project team launched a quest offering rewards in its internal token DOLLR and other prizes for subscribers of the Telegram channels “TonTrader: Investing in Crypto Wisely” and TonTrader: Investing in Crypto Wisely.

This article explores TonTrader and how users of the Blum mini-app can profit from it.

The TonTrader Ecosystem

Work on the application began in November 2024, with a full launch in February. Currently, TonTrader offers:

• cryptocurrency trading within Telegram without the need for registration and KYC;
• a trader arena—competitions among app users with rewards in USDT and exclusive bonuses;
• DOLLR—the native token of TonTrader.

“TonTrader is not an exchange but a new trading environment in Telegram: instant access to the cryptocurrency market, convenient mechanics, and everything you need right in the messenger,” comment TonTrader representatives.

According to the roadmap, the project plans to launch a capital management system in July 2025 and prop trading in November.

The Purpose of the DOLLR Token

DOLLR is the native token of the TonTrader ecosystem. Currently, users earn points for participating in tournaments on the platform. The project team plans to convert these into DOLLR tokens and list them on exchanges.

“The amount of DOLLR will depend not on clicks, friend invitations, or simple tasks, but on your trading success and tournament participation,” note TonTrader representatives.

The main way to earn DOLLR is by participating in competitions on the “Trader Arena.” Users receive not only points but also rewards in USDT, bonuses, and other prizes.

TonTrader and Blum

To mark the app’s launch, the TonTrader team planned a DOLLR token airdrop as part of a joint campaign with the Blum mini-app. However, the latter’s management decided to withdraw from the collaboration.

“We were surprised by this decision, but not disappointed. On the contrary, we see it as a confirmation of our app’s quality, which could become a more interesting alternative to Blum,” commented TonTrader product manager Vladimir Boykov.

The project decided not to cancel the airdrop. To participate, users need to send a screenshot of their Blum Points balance to the TonTrader team, which will credit an equivalent amount of DOLLR tokens. Organizers will soon publish distribution details in the Telegram channel.

The airdrop will run until mid-March. In the same month, TonTrader will raffle:

• iPhone 16 Pro Max 1 Tb;
• Apple Watch Series 10 Titanium 46mm;
• AirPods Max.

To participate in the promotion, users must subscribe to the Telegram channels “TonTrader: Investing in Crypto Wisely” and TonTrader: Investing in Crypto Wisely.

Conclusion

TonTrader is a new project aiming to become a leading trading platform in the TON/Telegram ecosystem.

TonTrader users earn rewards in the form of points for participating in tournaments and other activities on the platform. The project team plans to later convert these into DOLLR tokens and list them on centralized exchanges.
