The short answer

Gram is Toncoin. The native asset of The Open Network was renamed from Toncoin to Gram, ticker GRAM, after a governance vote passed with 81.22% on 8 June 2026. The change took effect on 15 June 2026 at 12:00 UTC.

The network itself is still called TON. Addresses, balances, smart contracts and transaction history are unchanged. Only the name, ticker and logo moved.

What it means for staking

Nothing changes mechanically. “Stake Toncoin” now reads “stake Gram”. Staked positions, liquid staking tokens and pending withdrawals all carried over untouched. Some tokens updated their names too: Hipo’s hTON, for example, is now hGRAM.

People still search for “TON staking” and “Toncoin staking”, and they mean the same thing. This guide uses Gram for the asset and TON for the network.

Scams to ignore

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to do anything with my Toncoin?
No. The coins in your wallet are now displayed as Gram. There is nothing to swap or claim.
Is TON still the name of the blockchain?
Yes. The Open Network (TON) is the network; Gram is its native asset.
Why does my exchange still show TON?
Exchanges and apps update their labels on their own schedule. The asset is the same either way.
