Telcoin Latest News: Two New Exchange Listings Secured Plus Key Insights

Blockchain-based financial platform, Telcoin, has secured listings on two additional exchanges, Uphold and Topper, following regulatory approval to operate as a digital asset bank in the United States. These developments mark expansions in the platform's accessibility and liquidity for its native token, $TEL. 

The listings coincide with Telcoin's approval by the Nebraska Department of Banking and Finance on November 12, 2025, which allows it to operate under federal oversight and issue regulated stablecoins.

Telcoin's U.S. Regulatory Approval

On November 12, 2025, Telcoin obtained final approval from the Nebraska Department of Banking and Finance to operate as the first federally regulated digital asset bank in the U.S. This charter subjects the company to oversight from federal entities, including the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Federal Reserve, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The approval enables Telcoin to issue regulated stablecoins, such as eUSD, a U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin issued directly by the bank.

This step allows for direct linkages between U.S. bank accounts and blockchain-based "Digital Cash" systems. Telcoin's CEO, Paul Neuner, stated that the approval demonstrates alignment among banks, fintech companies, and regulators on the role of blockchain in financial systems, particularly for stablecoin issuance. 

Details on the New Exchange Listings

The new listings on Topper and Uphold were announced shortly after the regulatory approval.

Listing on Topper 

Topper, a fiat-to-crypto on-ramp service operated by Uphold, listed $TEL on November 12, 2025, as shared via an X post from @TopperbyUphold. Users can now buy, sell, and hold the token through the platform. 

The protocol supports over 200 cryptocurrencies and offers multiple payment options, including credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Venmo, PIX in Brazil, and SEPA bank transfers in Europe. The service facilitates instant transfers to self-custodial wallets, prioritizing user control.

Topper maintains regulatory compliance through Uphold's registrations with bodies such as the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) in the U.S., the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in the U.K., and the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC). 

Most importantly, Topper serves millions of users across more than 180 countries, with a focus on low fees and support for major fiat currencies like USD, EUR, and GBP. For Telcoin, this listing supports its emphasis on mobile-based financial access, as Topper simplifies fiat-to-crypto conversions.

Uphold Listing Announcement

The following day, on November 13, 2025, Telcoin Association announced the asset’s listing on Uphold. The digital asset platform with over 10 million users, now includes $TEL among its offerings of more than 300 cryptocurrencies, precious metals, and stablecoins. 

Access to $TEL trading on Uphold began with a 24-hour exclusive period for Uphold Rewards program members, followed by availability to all users. Uphold provides cross-asset trading capabilities, including exchanging cryptocurrencies for metals, as well as on-ramps and off-ramps for fiat. 

Implications for Telcoin's Operations

The listings increase $TEL's liquidity and facilitate broader access, particularly through Topper's fiat conversion features. This aids Telcoin's strategy to serve emerging markets where mobile telecommunications dominate financial interactions. Paired with the U.S. bank charter, the platform can now issue compliant stablecoins and broaden decentralized finance offerings.

These capabilities position Telcoin to address segments of the global remittances market, valued at over $800 billion annually. However, challenges persist, including market volatility, potential shifts in regulatory environments, and competition from other top entities. 

Conclusion

Telcoin's recent exchange listings on Uphold and Topper, combined with its U.S. regulatory approval, expand the platform's operational scope in blockchain finance. These steps enhance token liquidity, support stablecoin issuance, and facilitate mobile-based services. The market reactions and community discussions reflect recognition of these integrations' role in increasing accessibility. Users interested in the protocol’s offerings should monitor ongoing regulatory compliance and market dynamics, as they define Telcoin's position in the financial technology sector.
