GRAM: What's Coming Next for Telegram's Coin

Gram is having a rough month. It's trading around $1.19, down roughly 40% in 30 days, after touching a one-year low near $1.16 on October 29. Support sits at $1.15, and if that goes, $1 is the next level to watch.

So why is anyone still paying attention? Because the calendar ahead is busy.

Durov's seven-step "Make TON Great Again" roadmap is four steps in. The speed upgrade, fee cut, Telegram's validator takeover, and the rebrand from Toncoin to Gram are done. Three steps remain, and nobody outside Telegram knows exactly what they are. The two most talked-about guesses are TON Pay 2.0, an in-app payment layer for instant Telegram transactions, and TON Teleport, a bridge to pull Bitcoin liquidity onto TON.

The bigger near-term story is the wallet. Validators approved the smart contracts for the official Gram Wallet at the end of August, and a full non-custodial rollout inside Telegram is expected this quarter. That's a billion-plus users getting a GRAM wallet without downloading anything.

Telegram has also applied to ICANN for a .gram top-level domain, which would turn usernames into web addresses. No date on that yet.

One thing to keep in mind: activity on TON doesn't automatically mean demand for GRAM. Perp trading on the chain jumped tenfold in a week, but the main DEX doesn't require GRAM for margin or fees, so volume can rise while the token sits still. Whether the remaining roadmap steps fix that is the real question.

Short version: weak chart, strong catalyst list. The wallet rollout and the next MTONGA announcement are the ones to watch.

Not financial advice.
