  Telegram added the possibility that you don't need a physical sim to have an
  account, and even better, that number is based on Block Chain. Basically you
  buy the number within BC.

# Telegram anonymous number

{% hint style="info" %}
Currently each number has an average price of 15 TON, which at the current rate is around 35 usd. As much as it is a bit salty in the long run and aiming for privacy, it is quite cheap. Remember, if you don't pay for a product or get a big discount, YOU are the product.
{% endhint %}

## 📝TON wallet creation

The TON wallet basically works the same way as metamask or trust wallet. You will download the Tonkeeper app available on google play or apple store and create an account. After creating the account it will generate you 24 keywords in the same way as other crypto wallets.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Save these key words on paper and treat them the same way as your phase from a trezor, for example, always prioritizing safety.

## 💰Send TON to your wallet

To send TON to your wallet there are some ways like buy with credit card etc. The best way I found was buying through KUCOIN with USDT and through KUCOIN you can also withdraw your tokens to your TONKeeper wallet

## 📲Buy your anonymous number

The purchase of telegram numbers and users via the ton network is carried out via the fragment.com website. And within this site there are two modes: auction or instant purchase. For what we want, the best way is for you to buy at the same time, so use the For sale tab and prefer to search from the cheapest to the most expensive.

## 📲Use your number

With the number in hand you have two options:

1. Create telegram account with anonymous number
2. Change your current account number to a TON number&#x20;

Both ways you will follow the basics of number chaging and telegram account creation. The difference is when you receive the confirmation code

## 📲Confirming your TON number on telegram

After starting to create a telegram account or changing the number and fill in the number you bought, it will ask for a confirmation code.

In the TON number you can find this inside the fragment site by clicking on the 3 dashes ![](https://content.gitbook.com/content/Kh32uNtbLhsVcOhsgNPd/blobs/MOVQSavlqWruWkA1ffIw/image.png)

With this code in hand, just fill in the telegram in the same way you do with a traditional number

## 🔐Privacy

Ready, that way you guarantee that you have a telegram account where you have the private key to access that number in a private and secure way.

It is worth mentioning again to store your private phrase securely.
