Wallets for Gram (formerly Toncoin), USDT and other tokens, and decentralized exchange bots for swapping them on TON. Between the wallets, the difference that matters most is who holds the keys: the operator or you.

We did not send real money or make swaps: the assessment rests on what can be checked in the open. For each bot we looked at its public t.me page and, where the project has them, its official website, documentation or channel, checking that the project points to this exact bot and whether the profile carries a verification badge. We noted who holds the keys, the operator or the user, whether fees are published, and which features require identity verification.
A custodial wallet works like an account with a service: the operator holds the keys. Wallet and Crypto Bot work this way. They are convenient - you send to a contact, top up with a card and have nothing to write down - but you depend on the operator, which may ask for identity verification or limit features in your country. A non-custodial wallet such as Tonkeeper creates the keys on your own device. Nobody but you can move the funds, and nobody can get them back for you: the seed phrase is the only backup. Custodial wallets suit everyday transfers; keeping money you cannot afford to lose access to in one is a risk to weigh.
Clones copy the name and the avatar, so look at the username instead. An official bot's username matches the one on the project's website or official channel, and one extra letter or underscore is a reason to close the chat. Open wallet bots from that link, not from ads, comments or private messages. The rule that matters most: never type a seed phrase into a bot, a website or a "support" chat. A real wallet has no reason to ask for it, and whoever does is after your funds.
STON.fi and DeDust do not hold your funds: you connect your own wallet through TON Connect and confirm each swap there. Before confirming, check the amount you will actually receive and the slippage setting, because the rate can move while the transaction goes through. On top of the pool fee you pay the TON network fee, which is more noticeable on small amounts. Check the token's contract address too: fake jettons borrow the names of real projects. A DEX exchanges tokens you already intend to hold; it does not promise returns.
It depends on the type. In a custodial wallet such as @wallet or @CryptoBot the operator holds the keys, and an operator can ask for identity verification, as @wallet does; in a non-custodial one such as @tonkeeper the keys stay on your device and cannot be recovered without the seed phrase.
Compare its username with the one listed on the project's official website or channel, and open the bot only from that link. A familiar name and avatar prove nothing: clones copy both.
No. Whoever knows the seed phrase controls the wallet, so it is never typed into a bot, a website or a chat. A request for it is a sign of fraud: close the conversation and do not send anything.
In a custodial wallet the exchange happens inside the service you trusted with your funds. On a DEX such as STON.fi or DeDust you connect your own wallet and sign the swap yourself, paying the pool fee plus the TON network fee.
