Telegram has applied for the “.gram” top-level domain, according to a post by founder Pavel Durov on Aug. 19. If the application is approved by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN, the platform’s roughly 1 billion users could become eligible for their own second-level domain names tied to Telegram usernames.
Durov gave examples in his post, saying the Telegram handle @durov could eventually map to durov.gram, while @monk could map to monk.gram. He also said users would be able to create and host interactive websites on Telegram through a single command.
The proposal, as described by Durov, links Telegram identities with domain naming and website creation, but the plan still depends on ICANN approval before any rollout could happen.
