Token rebrand June 15 2026 (Toncoin → Gram, ticker TON → GRAM, 81% vote). Network stays TON.

Display rename: chains.ts (label/nativeSymbol), provider-registry, 3 benchmark YAMLs (l1-finality, network-fees, wallet-labels-coverage), 2 answers, l1-finality.md, harness READMEs. New Gram SVG logo replaces ton.png. brand color #0098EA → #30A1F5.

Kept stable: slug ton, Prom label chain="ton", DefiLlama mapping (verified DefiLlama still uses TON for chain, GRAM for token), API endpoints (tonapi.io), Twitter handles, Go function names + TON_API_KEY env var.

SEO continuity via 'Gram (formerly TON)' anchor phrasing.

The Toncoin → Gram (ticker TON → GRAM) rename took effect on 2026-06-15
via TON Vote (81% community support). The network itself stays branded
TON / The Open Network; only the native token rebranded. We render
'Gram' everywhere visible (chain label, ticker, native symbol, copy)
while keeping internal identifiers stable.

Display layer (TON → Gram everywhere visible):
- chains.ts: label 'TON' → 'Gram', nativeSymbol 'TON' → 'GRAM',
  description updated with 'formerly TON / Toncoin' continuity line.
- provider-registry.ts: ton + tonapi descriptions updated.
- benchmarks/l1-finality.yml: SEO + FAQ + per-chain explainer + provider
  entry display + abstract + methodology.
- benchmarks/network-fees.yml: editorial + FAQ + per-chain explainer +
  fee tier copy + provider entry display (0.005 TON → 0.005 GRAM).
- benchmarks/wallet-labels-coverage.yml: editorial + FAQ + per-chain
  explainer + chain dimension label + TonAPI provider tag.
- answers/{cheapest-fees,fastest-finality}.yml: intro / FAQ / limitations.
- l1-finality.md + harness READMEs: chain table + confidence audit copy.

Logo + brand:
- public/logos/ton.svg replaces ton.png (new Gram circular badge from
  ton.org/media; logo-manifest now points at the .svg).
- brand.ts: ton color #0098EA → #30A1F5 to match the new mark.

Kept stable on purpose (technical identifiers, ops contract):
- slug 'ton' everywhere (URL, Prom queries, harness contract).
- Prometheus label chain="ton" in all queries.
- DefiLlama chain mapping ton → 'TON' (their API still uses 'TON';
  tokenSymbol is already 'GRAM').
- API endpoints (tonapi.io, ton.org), twitter handles (@ton_blockchain,
  @tonapi_io) - all unchanged upstream.
- Go function/type names (StartTONWallClock, tonState) and TON_API_KEY
  env var - renaming would require ops coordination + redeploy.

SEO continuity: 'Gram (formerly TON)' phrasing in 1-2 anchor spots per
page so search engines bridge the rename for 30+ days.
