VeVe Brings NFT Stickers to Telegram's Billion-User Playground

Lisbon, Portugal, June 4th, 2026, Chainwire — The Genesis Drop, VeVe's first-ever NFT sticker collection, goes live Saturday, June 6, offering early collectors exclusive access, rewards, and a small footnote in digital collecting history. VeVe, the premium digital collectibles platform known for licensed IP from Marvel, Star Wars, and Disney, today announced the official launch of VeVe Stickerverse, a Telegram-native NFT sticker platform built on the TON blockchain. The announcement landed at NFC Lisbon, a prominent Web3 and digital culture conference, marking VeVe's move from a standalone collecting app into a broader Web3 ecosystem.

A New Era for Digital Collecting Telegram now counts nearly one billion monthly active users, making it one of the more consequential social and digital commerce platforms around. The TON blockchain, embedded natively within Telegram, has crossed 50 million monthly active crypto wallets — putting it in the running for the fastest-growing on-chain communities on the planet. Together, they've turned Telegram into a place where memes occasionally become marketplaces.

VeVe Stickerverse is built for this ecosystem: a lightweight, social-first NFT sticker platform where collectors can mint, own, trade, and share digital collectibles directly inside Telegram, with no separate app required. VeVe brings its collecting résumé to the table: 10 million+ digital comics and collectibles sold, 3 million+ users, and partnerships with 200+ of the world's most beloved brands and IPs, from Marvel and Star Wars to Lamborghini and Disney, accumulated over 8 years.

The Genesis Drop: Saturday, June 6 The inaugural drop, the VeVe Stickerverse Genesis Collection, goes live Saturday, June 6, and the early birds get the rare ones. Genesis collectors receive access to rare collectibles and a permanent place in VeVe Stickerverse history. The collection features three rarity tiers — Common, Rare, and Secret Rare — with blind box mechanics that keep every pack opening a small moment of suspense. Packs can be purchased with Telegram Stars for a smooth entry point, or minted directly on-chain via the TON blockchain for full ownership and tradability on secondary marketplaces, including GetGems.

VeVe Stickerverse is led by Jacob Elmon, Head of VeVe Stickerverse and Co-founder of ElmonX, whose experience with Telegram-native commerce and the TON ecosystem anchors the platform's go-to-market strategy and long-term growth.

"Telegram is where culture lives right now, nearly a billion people communicating, sharing, and increasingly, owning digital assets. VeVe Stickerverse is about meeting collectors where they already are, and giving them something genuinely worth owning. When you pair VeVe's IP relationships and collecting pedigree with the scale and native ownership infrastructure of Telegram and TON, you get something the market has never seen before. The Genesis drop is just the beginning, we're building a community that connects people through the IPs and art they love most." — Jacob Elmon, Head of VeVe Stickerverse and Co-Founder of ElmonX.

"VeVe has always been about more than collectibles; it's about bringing people together through shared passion for the stories, characters, and art that define our culture. Telegram gives us the ability to do that at a scale we've never had access to before. This is VeVe's next chapter, and the Genesis drop is a moment we want our community, old and new, to be part of. If you've ever wanted to own a piece of the IPs you love, Saturday is your chance to be there with us from the start." — David Yu, Co-Founder and CEO of VeVe.
