Gram (formerly Toncoin) is the native cryptocurrency of The Open Network (TON), a Layer 1 blockchain originally designed by Telegram's co-founder. It enables fast, low-cost transactions and smart contracts with seamless integration into the Telegram messaging ecosystem. Gram powers Telegram's Mini App payment ecosystem and serves as the settlement asset for Telegram's native payment and advertising infrastructure. On June 15, 2026, the token was renamed from Toncoin (TON) to Gram (GRAM) following an 81.22% community governance vote β a name, ticker, and logo change only, with the blockchain still called The Open Network (TON) and all balances, addresses, and contracts unaffected.
The Open Network uses a multi-blockchain architecture with a masterchain coordinating multiple workchains, enabling near-unlimited horizontal scaling. Smart contracts are written in FunC/Tact and deployed on workchains. Consensus uses a BFT PoS mechanism where validators stake Gram and vote on blocks. The network processes transactions in parallel across shardchains. TON has exclusive integration with Telegram: Mini Apps can accept Gram payments natively, developers earn through Telegram Stars (converted to Gram), and channel owners receive ad revenue in Gram.
