Gram USD

Crypto asset exchange bitFlyer announced on September 16 that it will begin handling four tokens — Tron, Gram, Cosmos, and XDC Network — on its sales platform. Trading will start around 1:00 p.m. on September 29, with the first purchase under its "Kantan Tsumitate" accumulation service set for September 30. Tron is a blockchain known for its strength in decentralized application development, Cosmos is a foundation for connecting different blockchains, XDC Network is a platform for business-to-business transactions such as trade finance, and Gram is the native token of The Open Network, a blockchain developed by the founders of the messaging app Telegram. The addition comes as domestic exchanges are notably consolidating their token lineups. On September 4, BitPoint announced the delisting of six tokens and SBI VC Trade three, followed on September 9 by GMO Coin announcing the delisting of three tokens.

Telegram CEO Pavel Durov announced that the company will introduce a self-custodial crypto wallet called Gram Wallet this summer. He said it will enable fee-free instant crypto transactions for over one billion users, marking the largest non-custodial wallet rollout in human history. Specific details such as the exact launch date, supported regions, eligible assets, and private key management mechanisms have not been disclosed. Telegram already has a wallet service operated by an external provider with over 150 million registered users, and the relationship with the new wallet remains unclear. Additionally, the native asset of the TON blockchain has been renamed from Toncoin to Gram.

The cryptocurrency Gram, which returned to its historic name as part of a major rebranding of the TON ecosystem, is showing a local rally amid a broader market revival. The token surged 10% following its listing on Binance and Hyperliquid.
