# TON staking

> Stake GRAM in nomination pools, TON Whales pools, Chorus One pools, or P2P.org pools, with a liquid tsTON option through Tonstakers.

Stake GRAM (TON's native token, renamed from TON) on The Open Network through nomination pools or a named pool provider. Each yield delegates to pools rather than a single validator directly.

<Note>
  The native token was rebranded from TON to GRAM. yield.xyz keeps the network name "TON" and the existing `ton-*` yield IDs for compatibility; the staked and reward token is GRAM.
</Note>

## Yields

| Yield ID | Staking type | Provider | Validator selection |
| - | - | - | - |
| `ton-ton-nomination-staking` | Pooled | Various nomination pools | Required |
| `ton-ton-ton-whales-pools-staking` | Pooled | TON Whales | Required |
| `ton-ton-chorus-one-pools-staking` | Pooled | Chorus One | Required |
| `ton-ton-P2P-pools-staking` | Pooled | P2P.org | Required |
| `ton-ton-tston-staking` | Liquid | Tonstakers | Not applicable |

<Note>
  `ton-ton-tston-staking` is documented on its [DeFi liquid-staking page](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/tonstakers). This section covers the four pooled yields.
</Note>

## Choosing a pool yield

* [Nomination pools](/documentation/earn/staking/non-evm/ton/nomination): the standard pool set, minimum 10,001 GRAM.
* [TON Whales pools](/documentation/earn/staking/non-evm/ton/tonwhales): community-run pools, minimum determined on-chain per pool.
* [Chorus One pools](/documentation/earn/staking/non-evm/ton/chorus-one): Chorus One's own pools, same mechanics as TON Whales pools.
* P2P.org pools (`ton-ton-P2P-pools-staking`): P2P.org's own pool, same module and mechanics as TON Whales pools.

All four share the same enter and exit shape: `amount` and a required `validatorAddress` (the pool address). Staking and unstaking both pass through the pool's validation cycle before they settle, and a `WITHDRAW` pending action claims GRAM that has returned from the elector.
