StarGate: Stars to TON

You have stars piling up from games, subscriptions and mini apps, but you want TON. StarGate, also called Star to TON, promises an instant swap: you pay in stars ⭐️, the bot sends TON to your wallet. 🔄

It runs as a Mini App and keeps statistics: how many stars were exchanged and how much TON was paid out.

What StarGate can do

The bot description lists four actions:

• Swap stars for TON right in the chat.
• Track payments to see what arrived and when.
• View smart contract details for the contract behind the operations.
• Overall stats: total stars exchanged and TON paid.

Four commands for every case

• /start welcome and launch.
• /wallet view or update the TON wallet for swaps.
• /terms terms of use.
• /support help and the support chat.

Read /terms before the first swap. It takes a couple of minutes and explains the service rules. 📄

Your first swap, step by step

1. Have your TON wallet ready and copy the address carefully.
2. Set it through /wallet.
3. Enter a small number of stars as a test.
4. Check how much TON is quoted and confirm payment.
5. Verify the arrival in your wallet and keep the payment details.

Why you should test small

No independent confirmation of the rate or fees turned up, and a directory page lists the service as part of the tApps Center ecosystem. Only the bot itself gives the full terms.

So make the first swap a minimal one. If TON arrives as the bot showed, you can move to bigger amounts. ⚠️

Risks of swapping stars for crypto

Spending Telegram stars on digital goods is easy, but getting value out to the outside world is harder. That is what creates demand for swap services.

• Rate may be poor: compare the amount with what the stars cost you.
• TON price fluctuates, so the final value in dollars or rubles changes.
• A wrong address is irreversible: blockchain transfers cannot be undone.
• Look-alike fake bots with similar names: open the bot only from a verified link.

When a swap makes sense

If you received stars as payment in games or mini apps and they sit idle, a swap can be handy. But do not buy stars for arbitrage: rates move and nobody promises a gain.

Never give anyone your wallet seed phrase. A bot that needs a secret phrase for a swap is a scam. 🔐
