Works for USDT now, as I have tested it already.

I will add the feature to premium and tg account TopUp.

So, you will be able to buy premium for multiple people at once and also fund many Telegram accounts at once with $GRAM.

Also very soon, you'll be able to tell your AI agent to "buy 50 stars for @monk from hoton.tg" or "gift 1 year of premium to @damx from hoton.tg".

As long as the agent can control a TON wallet, it'll be able to perform the task smoothly.

More on agentic wallets here: agents.ton.org

your agent only needs two things: the @ton/mcp (it uses this to spin up its own agentic ton wallet) and hoton-mcp (publishing to github soon).

once both are installed, just tell your agent to create its wallet. it walks you through the setup, then you fund that wallet with $GRAM.

that’s it. your agent can now buy stars, premium and top up $GRAM programmatically straight from hoton.tg with just a prompt in natural language.

code’s basically perfect now, just minor cleanup left. still a few spots where it says TON instead of GRAM as the currency.

gonna fix those, then push to github and also add to MCP marketplaces so anyone with an ai agent ( like openclaw, Hermes, Teleton) can install and use it.

Next, I'll try multiple accounts. If it works, I'll add one of my agents to the chat and ask it to buy stars for some people to see if it does.

The update is now live.

You can now buy for multiple users at once on hoton.tg

Try it out on the mini app @hoton

And yes.. as I promised

The Hoton Model Context Protocol (MCP) is now live!

It lets your AI agent buy Premium, Stars, or top up your in-app GRAM balance in Telegram by just telling it to do so in natural language.

More info here @hotonmcp

Time to test is in our chat.

Will tell one of my ai agent to join the chat and let’s see if she’ll be able to use the hoton-mcp to buy stars for us.

Hi fam. It’s been a while

Here's basically how it works: you submit the username on our form in hoton.tg (live soon), transfer the channel/group to our Hoton account (powered by Teleton), place the first bid, that’s all.

The moment your bid lands, ownership is automatically transferred back to you. That transfer is the only manual step; everything else runs on its own.

Why the transfer? Minting a Telegram username needs temporary full ownership of the channel/group it lives on, which is also why personal account usernames aren't supported yet (more complicated + security concerns). Will see if that can be integrated in the future.

If you miss the bid window, your channel/group still comes back automatically. But re-submitting that same username costs a small penalty fee, this is just to prevent people from spamming the system.

So if you've got a username you want to convert, get ready:

- The username must be on a channel/group for 14+ days
- 2FA must be enabled & unchanged for the last 7 days
- At least 10 $GRAM in your wallet (10 for the bid + gas fee)

This will be free for a while when it goes live, then we may introduce a fee later in the future for the service.

This is about to be the BIGGEST ONBOARDING the crypto space has ever witnessed.

And guess what? It’ll be on TON Blockchain, powered by its native currency, $GRAM

Most people have no idea how massive this is.

I’ll break it down for you based on what I know and what I have known these past few months.
