💎 How GRAM became GRAM

TON blockchain and its native token Gram have a fascinating history. Here's how crypto in Telegram evolved.

📖 First came the name
In 2017, Pavel Durov was choosing a name for Telegram's new cryptocurrency.

The idea was to give it a simple, familiar name that would fit naturally into everyday life. That's how Gram was born.

👥 Then came the community
In 2019, Telegram stepped away from the project, and the community continued developing the open-source technology independently. The blockchain later became The Open Network, with Toncoin as its native token.

Toncoin wasn't immediately listed on major exchanges, so @wallet was created as a simple way to buy the coin right inside the messenger.

🔄 The long-awaited return
In spring 2026, Durov announced the MTONGA plan, Make TON Great Again, with 7 steps.

Telegram returned to the project: became the network's largest validator, replaced TON Foundation and taking a leading role in TON's development. The community voted to restore the original name: Toncoin became GRAM again.

⭐️ Gram wallet
Continuing the MTONGA plan, Durov announced a built-in non-custodial wallet. It's already available to select groups and will reach millions of users over the coming weeks.

A new chapter is unfolding in the ecosystem, and together with Telegram's Gram wallet, we'll be shaping the crypto experience for users 👥

📈 September keeps the market on edge

Several major events happened this week.

🤚 The CLARITY Act failed to pass
The Senate blocked the bill in a procedural vote. The market reacted instantly: $300M in crypto longs were liquidated in just 20 minutes. BTC is back under selling pressure.

But regulators aren't backing down. SEC Chair Paul Atkins said the agency will deliver regulatory clarity for crypto "with or without legislation." The CFTC is also ready to issue crypto rules on its own.

📈 The Fed raised rates by 25 bps
Fed Chair Kevin Warsh: "Inflation has been too high for too long." The Fed isn't confident inflation is moving toward its target and expects one more rate hike before year-end. Higher rates can put additional pressure on crypto and equities, while making more conservative assets relatively more attractive.

🪙 The US is moving toward a Bitcoin reserve
The House Committee approved a bill to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, under which the US would hold BTC as a government reserve asset.

The market is under pressure from multiple directions right now. Spot or Perpetuals. The choice is yours 💰

🛢 Oil is back in focus

Brent crude is back above $100 for the first time since July, clearing a key psychological level. WTI is closing in on the same mark.

📈 Oil is up more than 10% over the past month. Behind the rally: escalating tensions in the Middle East. Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has fallen to multi-year lows, and alternative supply routes are under threat.

The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve is at its lowest level since 1982. Goldman Sachs sees Brent at $120 if the conflict drags on.

💰  Moves are sharp in both directions. Perpetuals on Brent and WTI are available in Wallet 24/7 from $1.

There's disagreement in the Senate: Democrats sent Republicans a counter-proposal, and the odds of passage have dropped sharply to 16%. BTC has already reacted, falling below $77,000.
