Re:SEC halts Telegram's $1.7B token offering by DiogenesKynikos on Monday October 14, 2019 @06:44PM (#21253657)
Telegram promises Grams (digital coins), to be delivered once the TON network is operational. Telegram even projects what the price of a Gram will be on the market.

This is a vehicle for investing in Telegram's business. If you buy this contract, you're giving Telegram money, which they promise to use to develop a new service. They promise to give you a cut of the value created by that new service. This is very much like a stock offering.
