AI-assisted interpretation
The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.
The report says that Telegram 13.0 adjusted the interface and some features. The wallet entry point was moved from Settings to a mini app, and the original Wallet was renamed Walt; Gram Wallet is expected to be added, but is not currently usable.
Why it matters to readers
Changes to the wallet entry point may affect how users find and access related services; whether Gram Wallet will actually launch remains to be confirmed.
If you use the Telegram wallet or mini apps, note the changes to the wallet entry point and name; for now, do not treat Gram Wallet as an available service.
Risks and unknowns
Telegram has not yet published 13.0 a detailed official announcement.
Gram Wallet is only a feature reportedly expected to be introduced and is not yet available to users.
The evidence text ends with “In addition,...”, so the subsequent changes are incomplete.
