TON Wallet: To buy or sell numbers on Fragment, you need a compatible TON wallet (e.g., Tonkeeper) connected to the Fragment platform.
Telegram Registration and Verification:
When you want to create a new Telegram account anonymously, you enter the +888 number you've acquired from Fragment during the registration process.
Crucially, instead of receiving an SMS verification code, the code is sent directly to your TON wallet or displayed on the Fragment platform itself, associated with your purchased number. You then enter this code into the Telegram app to activate your account.
No SIM Card Required: This is the core benefit – these telegram number database numbers are completely independent of physical SIM cards, mobile carriers, or traditional telecom infrastructure.
Benefits of Using Fragment for Anonymous Telegram Numbers:
Enhanced Privacy/Anonymity:
No Personal Number Link: Your Telegram account is not linked to your real-world identity or personal phone number, which is tied to traditional KYC (Know Your Customer) processes.
Freedom from Carriers: You are not reliant on a mobile carrier, reducing potential vectors for data tracking or legal pressure related to your phone number.
Decentralized Ownership: The ownership of your +888 number is verifiable on the TON blockchain, making it transparent and resilient to centralized control.
Resistance to SIM Swaps: Since there's no physical SIM card, your account is immune to SIM swap attacks (where attackers hijack your phone number to gain access to your accounts). However, the security of your Telegram account then heavily relies on the security of your TON wallet and your 2FA password.
Long-term Control: Unlike some temporary virtual phone numbers that expire, a +888 number you own on Fragment is yours as long as you maintain ownership on the blockchain.
