Telegram has applied for the .gram top-level domain through ICANN's 2026 round, a move that could let its billion-plus users claim personal web addresses like yourname.gram.
Telegram has applied for the .gram top-level domain as part of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers' 2026 round of new generic top-level domains, founder and CEO Pavel Durov announced on X.
Durov outlines plan for user domains
Durov said that if ICANN approves the application, Telegram's more than one billion users could receive their own second-level domains in the format yourname.gram. He said users would also be able to set up interactive websites hosted by Telegram with a single prompt, allowing people to launch personal web pages without technical skills.
Under the proposal, a Telegram username such as @durov could become durov.gram, giving users a dedicated web address tied to their existing identity on the platform.
