Pavel Durov: TON's native token has been renamed Gram, but the blockchain name remains unchanged.

According to Mars Finance, Telegram founder Pavel Durov announced on his personal channel that the TON ecosystem has launched a brand upgrade plan, changing the name of its native token from TON to Gram. The team stated that "Gram" was the name given to the native currency in the initial TON project white paper, and this name change aims to return to the project's original purpose and usher in a new phase of ecosystem development. According to the announcement, the brand transition is expected to be completed gradually over the next three weeks. During the transition period, related infrastructure, wallets, and ecosystem applications will be updated with the token name. TON emphasizes that this adjustment only involves the native token brand name; the TON blockchain network itself will continue to use the name "TON (The Open Network)" and will not be affected. The official statement indicates that restoring the native token to Gram is the fourth step in the "Make TON Great Again" seven-step strategy, and more ecosystem development plans and upgrades will be announced in the future.
