TON is now $GRAM. Same chain. Same network. New name, ticker & logo. All TON holdings convert 1:1 to GRAM automatically. No swap, no migration, no action required from holders. Why GRAM? Gram was the original name of the token in TON's first whitepaper. Returning to the roots, starting a new chapter. TON remains the name of the blockchain. The token is GRAM.

𝗛𝗶, 𝘄𝗲’𝘃𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝘁 𝗮 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗱𝗲𝘃 𝗶𝗻𝗯𝗼𝘅 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 We’re constantly building tools for TON — 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗞𝗶𝘁, 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗞𝗶𝘁, 𝗧𝗢𝗡 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁, 𝗔𝗜 𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 and all that good stuff. And the more we build, the more new use cases and developer questions we see that are not always obvious upfront So we’re opening a dev open mic for the community. Simple format: you drop a question → I answer as an engineer, not as a press release. If a question is really good, we might break it out into a separate post Anyway, let’s have a proper dev conversation in the comments

Previously, different calculation models could show values like 4.19% and 4.28%, while after the update they show ~25.44% and ~22.83% depending on the formula and reward accounting mechanics. Let’s briefly break down where these numbers come from and why they differ. In TON, staking works in cycles: rewards are distributed only during the active validation phase ~18 hours, while the full cycle including election and holding takes around ~36 hours. Because of this, a single validator participates in roughly half of all rounds per year ~240 out of ~481 — this is critical for APY calculation. See detailed here: tonviewer.com/rewards APY (annual percentage yield) accounts for compound interest: rewards are automatically added to the stake and start earning in subsequent validation rounds. In the formula below, which is currently used, compounding accumulates only over ~240 rounds in which the staked amount is actually active. APY = ((1 + reward_per_round) ^ (rounds_per_year / 2)) - 1 APY = ((1.00085507) ^ 240) - 1 APY ≈ 22.83% When you stake TON in liquid staking, half of the stake works in even rounds and half in odd rounds, so rewards are received roughly every ~18 hours. If you combine them, it results in a full reward over ~36 hours. Read more about how staking works in TON > telegra.ph/TON-Validators-AP…

Fees in TON have dropped 6× — to nearly zero. Next step — Telegram replaces the TON Foundation as the driving force behind TON and becomes its largest validator. The focus shifts to tech superiority. New ton.org, new dev tools, new performance upgrades. Timeline: 2-3 weeks.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗠𝗖𝗣 𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗻-𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗧𝗢𝗡 We publicly announced Agentic Wallets on TON — an open, self-custodial standard that lets agents manage assets through dedicated wallets. But just having a wallet isn’t enough. For an agent to use TON, it needs to be able to find and connect tools for interacting with the blockchain. That’s why we built mcp.ton.org — a simple entry point for connecting AI agents to TON. MCP gives agents access to tools for working with the blockchain, while skills provide ready-to-use instructions. A user copies a single command, and the agent gets a ready way to work with the blockchain. All skills are open and available in the github.com/ton-org/skills Now developers have a ready-to-use execution layer for agents on TON. After connecting MCP and installing skills, an agent can check balances, send transactions, swap tokens, work with NFTs and execute more advanced scenarios like buying xStocks or managing Agentic Wallets. All actions are built from reusable primitives and executed through MCP, which allows developers to move directly to building agent logic.
