The top 8 wallets to store TON and Jetton

Blockchain The Open Network (TON) has experienced strong growth in the number of users over the past year. According to the network's official statistics, the number of active wallets on the network has increased to over 36 million, with over 10 million wallets active at the time of writing. TON's ecosystem includes projects such as Tether, which has expanded to encompass the network, along with other new projects such as Tap-to-Earn applications.

On The Open Network, the TON token is called Jetton. Similar to the ERC-20 standard on the Ethereum blockchain, the BEP-20 standard on the BNB Chain, and the SPL standard on the Solana blockchain, Jetton is a smart contract token on the TON blockchain. Jetton is used for DeFi interactions with decentralized applications (dApps) on the network. Some popular Jetton tokens include Notcoin, USDT, Hydra, and Scaleton. Memecoins like Hedgehog in the fog (HIF) and Resistance Dog (REDO) are also increasingly popular on the TON network due to low transaction fees.

Like other blockchain networks, users on the TON network manage their assets through wallet applications.

## What is TON Wallet?

TON Wallet is developed to interact with the TON blockchain ledger and allows users to manage their assets and conduct transactions on the network. TON Wallet simplifies complex instructions into simple mouse clicks, enabling anyone to use and explore the network while maintaining complete ownership of their assets on the blockchain.

Users can store their TON assets in two types of wallets.

### Hot wallet (software wallet)

By using the hot wallet supporting the TON network, users can manage their assets and interact with DeFi on TON simply by installing the software application on their smart devices. The original TON wallet is specifically developed for the network, providing services tailored to TON and may include features such as staking.

For users with assets on multiple chains, there are also multi-chain wallets that support the TON network. In addition to assets from other blockchains, users can also manage their TON and Jetton from these wallets. Hot wallets are usually designed for convenience and accessibility, although there is an added risk that hot wallets are always connected to the internet and there is a risk of asset loss in case of compromised private keys or recovery phrases.

### Cold Wallet (Hardware Wallet)

Cold wallets have the advantage of being more secure than hot wallets because they are not permanently connected to the internet, third-party applications, and require a cold wallet in hand to authorize transactions. Cold wallets are also non-custodial wallets, where users have full ownership and control of their assets.

Ledger and SafePal are examples of hardware wallets supporting the TON network.

### How to choose a wallet for TON assets

When choosing a wallet for TON assets, some considerations need to be noted:

Wallet security

Before selecting a wallet, you can research the wallet's security standards by checking its existing security audits to see if any significant or notable issues have been addressed. If a project does not address important findings, there is always a risk of exploitation by malicious actors.

Intention

Will you store your assets for a long time or intend to actively participate in DeFi activities? If you intend to store assets for a long time, choosing a hardware wallet is often a better idea because it is safer. However, this additional security feature makes connecting to decentralized applications more complicated, requiring additional steps.

In this case, you can choose a hot wallet for your DeFi activities, which is more convenient because it can easily connect with any dApp anywhere.

Assets will be stored

Will you only use this wallet to store your TON assets or do you plan to store assets from other chains, such as ETH and BTC? If you are looking for a specific wallet to store your TON assets, choosing a wallet dedicated to TON like Tonkeeper may include benefits such as staking in the app or even registering digital content.

If you are planning to use a wallet for DeFi activities such as cross-chain swaps or for storing other assets such as ETH and BTC, choosing a multi-chain wallet like Trust Wallet can help you easily manage all assets on one platform.

Support for advanced operations specifically for the network

Some wallets only support basic functions such as sending and receiving assets. If you are looking for a wallet to interact with DeFi on TON, plan to stake TON on the network or trade Jetton, note that the wallet you choose may support these advanced operations on the TON network.

The following article will list 8 popular wallet applications supporting TON. In this article, first, we will consider hot wallets, then cold wallets. The hot wallets are listed based on popularity data from SimilarWeb and support for the TON network.
