Brand identity strengthened as Gram rebranding targets wider adoption

Telegram founder Pavel Durov has confirmed that Toncoin, the native token of The Open Network (TON) blockchain, will undergo a rebranding to Gram as part of the officially launched 'Make TON Great Again' initiative. This formal shift in branding is designed to strengthen Toncoin's identity within the Telegram ecosystem, enhancing visibility and fostering increased engagement from both institutional and retail users. Importantly, the transition will not impact user balances, wallet addresses, or existing smart contracts, thereby maintaining confidence in the platform’s stability as the ticker changes from TON to GRAM.

Overbought signals emerge as technical momentum stays strong

Technically, TON is currently situated above the MA-20 at $1.930, MA-50 at $1.757, and MA-200 at $1.547, with immediate resistance defined by the Ichimoku Kijun level at $2.302. MACD momentum signals a 'Strong Buy' on the daily timeframe, while ADX reads 26.8, pointing to a robust ongoing trend. Meanwhile, both Stoch RSI and CCI suggest overbought conditions, offering a note of caution to bulls, and BBP at 0.37 confirms persistent buyer dominance intraday. The session opened with a notable gap up ($2.095 from $1.896), and the price currently fluctuates between today's high of $2.125 and low of $1.984, reflecting moderate intraday volatility. Oscillator signals are mixed (neutral AO), so short-term momentum could pause or pull back after recent buying pressure.

Upside favored as volatility range defines near-term scenarios

Over the next five trading days, TON is expected to remain within a volatility band between $1.90 and $2.45. The probability of a price increase exceeds 80%, supported by confirmation from weekly RSI, ADX, and MA-50, though occasional pullbacks may occur due to overbought signals. The base scenario envisions consolidation in a sideways range between $1.90 and $2.45. Should TON break decisively above resistance at $2.30, a move toward the upper end of the range is likely. If the price falls below $1.90, the bearish scenario anticipates additional near-term downside risk.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees the Toncoin-to-Gram rebrand as a high-visibility move that boosts sentiment and positions the asset more closely within the Telegram ecosystem. He notes technical signals remain bullish, yet overbought indicators warn of possible short-term pullbacks. Base case is sideways consolidation between $1.90 and $2.45, with resistance at $2.30 being key for further upside. "I remain cautious in the short term and would not chase upside unless price holds firmly above $2.30."

Previously it was reported that The Open Network would rebrand its Toncoin token back to its original name, Gram, as part of a strategic initiative led by Telegram founder Pavel Durov. With the token's price exhibiting strong bullish momentum and heightened engagement within the Telegram ecosystem, traders should monitor the upper resistance at $2.30, as a decisive breakout could signal renewed upside toward the higher end of the projected volatility range.
