The native Wallet in Telegram has rolled out tokenized access to SK Hynix shares, enabling eligible users to participate in one of the most prominent AI semiconductor events of the year through xStocks integration. This offering comes immediately after the South Korean company’s record-breaking U.S. listing, providing a seamless blockchain-based alternative for global investors seeking exposure without traditional intermediaries.
SK Hynix, a producer of high-bandwidth memory chips critical for powering advanced AI systems—including those from NVIDIA used in tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude—raised approximately $26.5 billion by issuing around 177.9 million American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) at $149 each.
This marked the largest first-time US share sale by a foreign firm. The ADRs began trading on Nasdaq under ticker SKHYV (transitioning to SKHY), with strong initial performance reflecting sustained appetite for AI infrastructure plays.

The company has seen steady growth, with 2025 revenue climbing 46% year-over-year and operating margins reaching 49%.
It recently surpassed Samsung to become South Korea‘s most valuable enterprise.
While its shares have long traded primarily on domestic exchanges, the US listing broadens accessibility for international buyers eager to tap into the ongoing semiconductor surge.
Through xStocks on the TON blockchain, Wallet in Telegram users can now obtain tokenized versions of the SK Hynix equity.
Participants deposit funds ahead of the listing; post-debut, they receive tokens reflecting the final pricing, with any unallocated amounts returned automatically.
This mechanism simplifies entry and aligns tokenized assets directly with the Nasdaq outcome, all within Telegram’s familiar interface.
The update underscores Wallet in Telegram’s push to bridge retail investors with high-demand opportunities.
With its massive user base, the platform emphasizes inclusive access, often achieving notable retail allocations in oversubscribed deals where traditional channels fall short.
xStocks products, backed by established partners, remain restricted from U.S. persons and focus on compliant international audiences, enhancing liquidity and transferability on-chain.
This launch fits into a larger pattern of tokenized real-world assets gaining traction.
Similar SK Hynix tokenized instruments have appeared on networks like Solana, but Telegram’s deep integration offers convenience for its hundreds of millions of users.
It builds on prior expansions, such as yield features for major cryptocurrencies, positioning the wallet as a comprehensive hub for both crypto and traditional asset exposure.
By tokenizing a flagship listing like SK Hynix on day one, the collaboration between Wallet in Telegram and xStocks demonstrates how blockchain can democratize participation in global capital markets.
As AI demand propels semiconductor valuations, such tools lower barriers and introduce 24/7 on-chain flexibility to equity investing. More major listings are anticipated, signaling continued innovation in this space.
