  2. GRAM advances as renewed Telegram wallet interest lifts sentiment — this brief

Gram was trading at $1.18 after a 24-hour advance, with Crypto.news attributing the increase to renewed interest in Telegram’s cryptocurrency ecosystem and bullish comments from founder Pavel Durov. The report did not provide details about the substance of Durov’s remarks or a specific adoption metric.

Crypto.news reported a 4.4% 24-hour rise, while the live market dataset places GRAM’s increase at 2.81%. Those figures differ, and the supplied information does not indicate whether the difference reflects measurement methodology or the timing of the snapshots. GRAM was also up 1.36% over seven days and had a market capitalization of $3.37 billion.

The wider crypto market was essentially flat, with total capitalization at $2.51 trillion. Bitcoin was nearly unchanged at a 0.04% 24-hour gain, while the Fear & Greed Index stood at 28, corresponding to fear. Against that backdrop, GRAM’s comparatively larger move points to token-specific attention rather than a broad rise across digital assets.

The development places renewed Telegram wallet adoption and Durov’s public commentary in focus as potential drivers of market interest. The next meaningful indicators include whether wallet activity continues to expand, whether Durov provides further substantive comments, and whether GRAM’s current gains persist in a broader market still registering fear rather than strong risk appetite.
