Kripto para piyasasında kullanıcı aktivitesiyle öne çıkan blockchain ağları ve protokollerin güncel sıralaması açıklandı. Paylaşılan veriler, büyük Layer-1 ve Layer-2 ağlarının yanı sıra merkeziyetsiz borsalar, altyapı projeleri ve RWA odaklı platformlardaki kullanıcı hareketliliğini de gözler önüne serdi. TRON 3,7 milyon aktif kullanıcıyla listenin zirvesine yerleşirken, World Mobile Chain ve BNB Chain ilk üç sırayı tamamladı. Solana ise 2,3 milyon aktif kullanıcıya ulaşmasının yanı sıra kullanıcı aktivitesindeki yüzde 13,2’lik artışla listenin dikkat çeken projelerinden biri oldu.
TRON Zirvede, BNB Chain İlk Üçte Güncel verilere göre TRON, 3,7 milyon aktif kullanıcıyla listenin zirvesinde yer alarak güçlü kullanıcı tabanını korudu. Buna rağmen ağdaki kullanıcı aktivitesinde önceki döneme kıyasla yüzde 2,2 oranında sınırlı bir düşüş kaydedildi. World Mobile Chain ise 3,2 milyon aktif kullanıcı ve yüzde 12,1’lik artışla ikinci sıraya yükselerek dikkat çekici bir performans sergiledi. BNB Chain, 2,7 milyon aktif kullanıcıyla üçüncü sırada yer alırken, ağdaki kullanıcı aktivitesinin yüzde 21,8 gerilemesi öne çıkan negatif gelişmelerden biri oldu.

Solana 2,3 milyon aktif kullanıcıyla dördüncü sırada yer aldı. SOL ekosistemindeki kullanıcı aktivitesinin yüzde 13,2 yükselmesi, büyük blockchain ağları arasında Solana’yı pozitif ayrıştırdı.
İlk dört projenin sıralaması şöyle gerçekleşti:
TRON: 3,7 milyon World Mobile Chain: 3,2 milyon BNB Chain: 2,7 milyon Solana: 2,3 milyon Ethereum, Uniswap ve Robinhood da Listede opBNB yaklaşık 765,8 bin kullanıcıyla beşinci sırada yer alırken, kullanıcı aktivitesinde yüzde 42,9 düşüş yaşandı. Ethereum ise 542,7 bin aktif kullanıcıyla altıncı sıraya yerleşti. Listenin devamında Uniswap 509,8 bin, Robinhood 493,1 bin ve Polygon 476,3 bin kullanıcıyla öne çıktı. Özellikle Uniswap’taki yüzde 44,4 ve Robinhood’daki yüzde 80,1 oranındaki artış dikkat çekti.
Paylaşılan verilere göre sıralama şu şekilde oluştu:
TRON: 3,7 milyon World Mobile Chain: 3,2 milyon BNB Chain: 2,7 milyon Solana: 2,3 milyon opBNB: 765,8 bin Ethereum: 542,7 bin Uniswap: 509,8 bin Robinhood: 493,1 bin Polygon: 476,3 bin Celo Veriler yalnızca blockchain ağlarını değil, merkeziyetsiz borsalar, altyapı projeleri ve RWA odaklı platformları da kapsıyor. Bu nedenle aktif kullanıcı sayıları, farklı proje kategorilerindeki zincir üstü kullanımın genel görünümünü ortaya koyuyor.
Değerlendirme Güncel veriler TRON’un kullanıcı sayısında liderliğini koruduğunu gösterirken, Solana’daki artış da dikkat çekiyor. BNB Chain ve opBNB tarafındaki düşüşler ise kullanıcı aktivitesindeki zayıflamayı ortaya koyuyor. Uniswap ve Robinhood gibi projelerde görülen güçlü artışlar, kullanıcı ilgisinin yalnızca büyük Layer-1 ağlarıyla sınırlı kalmadığını gösteriyor. Önümüzdeki dönemde bu eğilimin devam edip etmemesi, ilgili altcoinlerin ve ekosistemlerin performansı açısından önemli bir gösterge olabilir.

Trust Wallet just made TRON transactions meaningfully cheaper. The popular non-custodial wallet has integrated Tronify, an energy rental service, that automatically kicks in when users interact with TRON-based dApps or send TRC-20 tokens like USDT.
The result: up to 40% savings on transaction costs compared to standard network fees, with the rental process happening behind the scenes in roughly 3-5 seconds.
How TRON’s resource model creates the problem Tronify solves TRON doesn’t charge gas fees the way Ethereum does. Instead, it uses a resource system built around two currencies: Energy and Bandwidth. Energy powers smart contract interactions, while Bandwidth covers basic data transmission. Users get these resources by staking TRX, the network’s native token.
The catch is that if you don’t have enough staked TRX to cover a transaction’s resource needs, the network burns your TRX directly as payment. That burn can get expensive, especially during periods of high network activity when resource costs spike.

Tronify’s rental model sidesteps both problems. Instead of staking your own TRX or watching it burn, you rent Energy from Tronify’s pool on a per-transaction basis. The service delegates the resources to your wallet almost instantly, and you only pay for what you use.
What the integration actually looks like Trust Wallet’s implementation is designed to be largely invisible. When a user initiates a TRC-20 transfer or dApp interaction, the wallet checks whether renting Energy through Tronify would be cheaper than paying standard network fees. If it is, the rental option is presented automatically.
Users see the cost upfront before confirming. They can choose to pay with either TRX or USDT, which is a practical touch given that many TRON users primarily hold stablecoins rather than the native token.
Tronify operates as a non-custodial service, meaning it never takes control of user funds. It simply delegates Energy and Bandwidth to the user’s wallet address for the duration of the transaction. The delegation typically completes within 3-5 seconds.
The savings can be substantial. While the Trust Wallet integration advertises up to 40% cost reduction, Tronify’s broader service claims users can save between 70% and 97% compared to directly burning TRX, depending on network conditions at the time of the transaction.
Tronify’s track record and Trust Wallet’s TRON expansion Tronify isn’t a brand-new experiment. The service has already delegated over 1.8 billion energy units and powered approximately 38,000 wallets before this Trust Wallet integration.
For Trust Wallet, this integration is the latest step in a deliberate expansion of TRON support. The wallet introduced TRC-related staking options and resource visibility features back in December 2024, laying the groundwork for a more comprehensive TRON experience.
What this means for the TRON ecosystem There’s also a potential impact on TRX tokenomics. TRON’s fee-burning mechanism acts as a deflationary force on TRX supply. If more users shift from burning TRX to renting Energy, the burn rate could decrease.
For other wallet providers, this integration sets a benchmark. Tronify already supports any non-custodial TRON wallet, so the technology is available for competing wallets to integrate similar optimizations.

The total number of accounts in the TRON [TRX] ecosystem has surpassed 402 million. The social media handle of the TRON explorer, TRONSCAN, also showed an average of 4.4 million daily active addresses over the past thirty days.
It was an impressive showing from the chain that is regarded as one of the leading global stablecoin settlement layers. According to Token Terminal data, the network has $92.3 billion in USDT, close to 50% of Tether’s total market cap.
Source: Maartunn on X AMBCrypto reported that the stablecoin market cap growth on TRON had outpaced the growth on every other chain. Moreover, compared QoQ, unique smart contract deployers have also grown since Proposal #104 reduced deployment costs by 60%.
Exploring the TRON token price action Source: TRX/USDT on TradingView The weekly chart of TRON showed the altcoin was in a healthy uptrend. While the crypto market suffered a serious setback after October 2025, when Bitcoin made an all-time high before plunging back below $100k, TRX only faced a 27.49% reset from August 2025 to February 2026.
However, the swing structure has not seen a bullish continuation since then. The $0.37 swing high from August has not been breached yet, with only a wick up to $0.3775 in May to show for the bullish efforts.
A set of Fibonacci retracement levels (orange) was plotted using these levels. The 61.8% retracement level at $0.31 was tested in June and saw a positive reaction.
In the coming weeks, the $0.2917-$0.3100 are the key support level to watch. Meanwhile, a price drop below $0.268 would signal a bearish weekly structure shift.
The RSI has remained above the neutral 50 since March, and the OBV has also been slowly trending higher. The more likely scenario remains a bullish continuation on the higher timeframes, especially after the apparent BTC recovery of the past three weeks.
Should TRX traders be cautious? Source: TRX/USDT on TradingView Since July, TRX has been trending higher, but towards the end of August, this move was fully retraced. The retest of the $0.321 support and the subsequent price bounce indicated a potential bearish momentum shift.
The RSI tested the neutral 50 level from below, while the OBV was below the local highs too. Technically, the bullish structure since July has not been broken, but the bears do have an advantage right now.
In the short-term, the $0.335-$0.337 area is a key resistance to watch. A recovery above this level would indicate a potential TRON bullish continuation.
On the other hand, rejection from this area would signal that TRX bears might take prices back to $0.321 or lower.
Final Summary The on-chain metrics for TRON signaled strong adoption and usage. The higher timeframe price chart also showed relative strength, but there is some short-term selling pressure on TRX.

1 September 2026 | 20:01 Crypto opened September lower as government-bond yields climbed and officials renewed their focus on the yen, leaving Bitcoin near $77,500 without evidence of market-wide capitulation.
Key Takeaways Bitcoin fell 1.45% to roughly $77,500. Monero and TRON led daily losses. Rising yields make speculative assets less attractive. A rapid yen reversal threatens carry trades. September opens with a controlled pullback Bitcoin traded at approximately $77,500 at 19:50 UTC on September 1, down 1.45% over 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap. The CMC20 index declined 1.11% over the same period, placing Bitcoin’s move inside a broader but still contained market pullback.
Among the leading cryptocurrencies tracked at the time, Monero posted the steepest daily loss, falling 3.6% to $502. TRON dropped 2.8% to $0.32, Solana lost 1.6% to $101 and Ethereum declined 1.5% to $2,430. Monero nevertheless remained almost 13% higher over seven days, while Solana retained a weekly gain of 2.6%. Their daily losses therefore followed recent strength rather than extending a weeklong sell-off.
The losses were broad enough to show weaker risk appetite, but not severe enough to establish that investors were rushing out of crypto. The crypto pullback coincided with a sharper repricing in oil and government bonds, where the potential consequences extended beyond a single trading session.
Oil and Fed expectations push yields higher Reuters reported that the US 10-year Treasury yield reached 4.80% before easing toward 4.77%, while Brent crude moved above $92 per barrel. The geopolitical pressure intensified later in the session when The Guardian reported that US forces had begun striking IRGC targets after the US military accused Iran of attempting attacks against commercial shipping and American personnel in the region. Further disruption around the strait could keep oil prices elevated and make inflation more difficult for central banks to contain.
The Federal Reserve reinforced that concern on September 1. Governor Michael Barr said inflation remained too high and argued that policymakers should raise rates decisively if price growth failed to moderate sufficiently. Interest-rate futures placed the probability of a September increase near 68%, according to Reuters.
That combination creates a direct valuation problem for crypto. Higher Treasury yields improve the return available from lower-risk assets while raising the cost of financing leveraged positions. Bitcoin does not need to experience a wave of bond-driven selling for those conditions to matter; investors are being offered more compensation for holding cash and government debt at the same time that speculative exposure is becoming more expensive.
Rates also explain why Japan cannot be treated as a separate currency footnote. The yen finances carry trades across global markets, while rising Japanese yields can make those positions more expensive to maintain. The speed and method of any policy response therefore matter more than the exchange rate alone.
The yen threat is a reversal, not weakness itself The yen’s slide toward 160 per dollar is not automatically bearish for Bitcoin. Japan’s historically low borrowing costs have allowed investors to borrow in yen and place that capital into assets offering higher potential returns. A weak currency can keep that strategy attractive as long as financing remains inexpensive and the exchange rate moves gradually.
The risk begins when the yen strengthens quickly or Japanese borrowing costs rise far enough to undermine those positions. Investors may then need to sell assets elsewhere, repurchase yen and repay their funding, allowing pressure that begins in Japan to reach equities, bonds and crypto.
That possibility returned to view after Japan’s 10-year government-bond yield touched 3% for the first time since 1996. Following an August 31 meeting, Japan’s Ministry of Finance said Japanese and US officials had reaffirmed that an orderly yen market was essential for global financial stability and that their joint efforts would continue.
The wording signals closer scrutiny, but it does not confirm another intervention. A gradual stabilization would give leveraged investors time to adjust, whereas a sharp reversal caused by intervention or higher Bank of Japan rates could force positions to close much faster. The funding method matters as well. That distinction shaped our earlier examination of Arthur Hayes’ yen thesis for Bitcoin, which showed why supporting the currency through liquidity facilities could produce different consequences from an aggressive BOJ tightening cycle.
Nothing in the September 1 crypto move proves that such an unwind has started. Evidence would require more than a weak trading session: the yen would need to appreciate rapidly as losses spread across leveraged markets and Bitcoin weakened alongside other risk assets. Until those conditions appear together, the currency remains a credible vulnerability rather than the established cause of the current decline.
Bitcoin still has room above $76,000 Bitcoin’s decline pushed it below $78,000 but left it above the first visible support area around $76,000. The daily BTC chart places the next deeper reference near $72,400, while the recent $80,000–$81,000 highs remain the barrier buyers must clear.
Bitcoin (BTC/USD) daily chart with Fibonacci retracement levels and RSI. Source: TradingView, Bitstamp. Captured September 1, 2026. A daily close below $76,000 would show that the pullback is reaching beyond the opening reaction to higher yields. Reclaiming $80,000 would instead indicate that buyers absorbed the macro pressure. Until either boundary breaks on a daily closing basis, Bitcoin remains under pressure without confirming a larger trend change.
September’s opening move is still a rates story As of time of writing the market is probably reacting to higher yields and a less favorable Federal Reserve outlook, while the yen remains a conditional risk. A sudden currency reversal accompanied by a Bitcoin close below $76,000 might be the first sign that those two pressures were beginning to reinforce each other.

TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), participated in Bitcoin Asia 2026 in Hong Kong, where TRON Founder Justin Sun joined two fireside discussions on Bitcoin’s evolution, institutional adoption and the changing structure of global digital finance.
On August 27, Sun joined Bonnie Chang, Founder and Host of Bonnie Blockchain, on the Nakamoto Stage for “The Globalization of Bitcoin Capital.” The discussion focused on Bitcoin’s growing role in global capital markets as access expands through investment products, corporate treasuries and institutional infrastructure.
Sun said Bitcoin has moved well beyond its early years as an experimental technology and now plays a more established role as a global monetary asset and store of value. He also said Bitcoin’s traditional four-year cycle could become less pronounced as institutional flows, derivatives, global liquidity and macroeconomic conditions play a greater role in shaping the market.
“TRON is highly related to daily stablecoin payments,” said Sun. “The network continues to grow, with more than $94 billion in USDT on TRON, driven by real-world usage and continued growth across the ecosystem.”
The conversation also examined the relationship between Bitcoin and stablecoins. Sun described Bitcoin and stablecoins as complementary, with Bitcoin serving as a store of value while stablecoins are used for payments and settlement. He pointed to sustained stablecoin activity on TRON as evidence that demand for digital dollars can remain strong regardless of broader crypto market conditions.
Sun also addressed longer-term technological shifts affecting blockchain networks, including quantum computing and AI. He highlighted TRON’s work on post-quantum signature technology on the Nile testnet and said the industry should begin preparing for future security risks as quantum computing advances. On AI, Sun said autonomous agents could eventually become active participants in the digital economy, creating demand for systems that allow AI agents to hold assets, make payments and interact directly with financial applications. He said blockchain’s transparent and verifiable infrastructure could become more relevant as AI systems gain greater economic autonomy.
Later that afternoon, Sun joined Sean Hagan of BMTV for a second fireside discussion at The Deep, Bitcoin Asia’s VIP stage, where he discussed how his views on Bitcoin have evolved, opportunities across digital assets and Bitcoin’s potential role in global finance.

Key Highlights The TRON blockchain achieved 400 million user accounts by August 23, 2026 Cumulative transfer volume across the network has exceeded $29 trillion through 15.2 billion transactions Tron Inc., trading on Nasdaq, maintains a treasury of 711.2 million TRX tokens valued at approximately $245 million Shares of Tron Inc. surged 7.49% on August 24, settling at $2.01 Current TRX market price stands at approximately $0.338, reflecting a 1.81% decline The TRON blockchain achieved a significant benchmark on August 23, 2026, surpassing 400 million cumulative accounts, as confirmed by TRON DAO. Alongside this user milestone, the platform has facilitated over 15.2 billion transactions with an aggregate transfer volume exceeding $29 trillion.
Tron (TRX) Price Reaching the initial 100 million accounts required four years following the genesis block deployment on June 25, 2018. Subsequently, the platform achieved 200 million accounts on December 7, 2023, reached 300 million by April 12, 2025, and has now doubled that figure within roughly three years.
Justin Sun, who founded TRON, characterized this achievement as evidence of “growing demand for accessible blockchain infrastructure.” He emphasized that stablecoin transactions, international money transfers, and tokenized asset management represent the primary applications fueling this expansion.
Source: Justin Sun The TRON ecosystem maintains the world’s largest circulating USDT stablecoin supply, currently surpassing $94 billion. Additionally, the platform reports total value locked (TVL) exceeding $28 billion.
Cryptocurrency analyst OxPink commented on the achievement via X, observing that TRON required 2,982 days from its initial launch to surpass the 400 million address threshold. The analyst provided a comprehensive timeline documenting each major account milestone from the network’s inception.
Tron Inc. Expands TRX Holdings to $245M In related corporate developments, Tron Inc. — a Nasdaq-traded entity previously operating as SRM Entertainment — announced the acquisition of 145,002 TRX tokens on August 24. This purchase elevates the company’s aggregate position to 711.2 million TRX, representing a market value near $245 million.
Tron Inc. (NASDAQ: TRON) acquired 144,606 TRX tokens today at an average price of $0.3458, further increasing its TRX treasury holdings to more than 711.3 million TRX in total. The company aims to further grow its Tron DAT holdings to enhance long term shareholder value. For live…

Shares of Tron Inc. appreciated 7.49% following the disclosure, finishing the trading session at $2.01. The company represents part of an emerging trend of publicly traded corporations implementing cryptocurrency treasury strategies beyond Bitcoin holdings, similar to Ethereum-focused organizations like BitMine.
Distinguishing Corporate Accumulation from Network Expansion These developments warrant careful distinction. Tron Inc.’s token accumulation represents a strategic corporate treasury allocation. This action does not inherently indicate heightened user engagement or transaction throughput on the TRON network.
Metrics demonstrating network expansion — including account creation, transaction processing, and TVL — constitute independent performance indicators. While both narratives are unfolding concurrently, they remain functionally separate phenomena.
TRON secured inclusion in the S&P Pantera Digital Asset Index recently, earning recognition based on protocol functionality, blockchain liquidity, and ecosystem activity. The platform has simultaneously broadened its institutional collaborations through partnerships with Anchorage Digital, Securitize, and Bitnomial.
At the time of publication, TRX trades at $0.338, representing a 1.81% decrease.
TLDR: TRON surpassed 400 million total accounts on August 23, 2026, per TRON DAO’s announcement. USDT balances on TRON exceeded $94 billion, reinforcing its role in stablecoin settlement. TRON processed over 15.2 billion transactions with nearly $29 trillion in transfer volume. Tron Inc. expanded its TRX treasury to more than 711.5 million tokens this week. TRON blockchain reaches 400 million accounts, a milestone confirmed by TRON DAO on August 25, 2026. The figure includes wallets and active smart contracts spread across the network.
The achievement follows more than 15 billion transactions and nearly $30 trillion in cumulative transfer volume. Low fees and fast stablecoin transfers, including USDT balances above $94 billion, continue supporting adoption across emerging markets.
TRON founder Justin Sun described the growth from zero to 400 million users in just over eight years as a notable step for the ecosystem.
Account Growth Accelerates Past Earlier Milestones TRON’s genesis block launched on June 25, 2018, marking the start of the network’s account expansion. The blockchain needed four years to reach its first 100 million accounts.
From there, growth sped up considerably. TRON crossed 200 million accounts on December 7, 2023, roughly 17 months after the first milestone, and then doubled that figure in under three years.
The network surpassed 300 million accounts on April 12, 2025, before crossing 400 million on August 23, 2026. Analytics platform Lookonchain compared this pace to older networks in a recent post, writing that TRON reached the mark “much faster than Bitcoin and Ethereum,” noting Bitcoin needed 9.4 years and Ethereum took over 10 years to reach the same figure.
Justin Sun reacted to the milestone on social media, writing, “From zero to 400M users in just over 8 years. Incredible to see how quickly the TRON ecosystem has grown.”
TRON DAO framed the growth as a reflection of steady demand for accessible blockchain infrastructure, pointing to payments, stablecoins, and tokenized assets as core drivers behind the expansion.
Stablecoin Transfers And Network Activity Drive Usage USDT balances on TRON have climbed past $94 billion, making stablecoin transfers one of the network’s primary use cases.
Fast settlement times and low transaction costs have made the chain a preferred option for cross-border payments. This activity has been especially pronounced in regions with growing demand for digital dollar access.
TRON has processed more than 15.2 billion transactions to date, with total transfer volume surpassing $29 trillion. These numbers position the network as a major settlement layer for digital asset movement.
High throughput combined with deep liquidity has allowed TRON to support an expanding range of on-chain financial activity beyond simple transfers.
In a statement accompanying the announcement, Sun said, “
He added that TRON remains focused on building a network that is
Institutional Adoption And Treasury Holdings Expand TRON’s institutional presence has grown alongside its user base. The network was recently included in the S&P Pantera Digital Asset Index, which recognized TRON among leading protocols based on utility, liquidity, and network activity. This inclusion places TRON alongside other major blockchains tracked by institutional benchmarks.
Partnerships with Anchorage Digital, Securitize, and Bitnomial have widened institutional access to the TRON ecosystem in recent months.
These collaborations span custody, tokenization, and derivatives infrastructure. Together, they support a broader range of regulated entry points into the network for institutional participants.

class=”ql-align-center”>TronBid expands its two-sided TRON resource marketplace, giving users new ways to rent Energy, trade Energy and Bandwidth, and reduce USDT fees for TRC-20 transactions.
TronBid, a peer-to-peer marketplace for TRON network resources, has expanded its platform with new tools for users looking to rent TRON Energy, manage transaction costs and access network resources without maintaining large amounts of staked TRX.
The platform now operates as a two-sided marketplace where both buyers and sellers can create orders for TRON Energy and Bandwidth.
Understanding TRON Energy Usage
TRON uses Energy and Bandwidth as its primary network resources. Energy is required for smart-contract computation, including USDT TRC-20 transfers.
When a wallet does not have sufficient Energy, TRX may be consumed to cover the resources required by the transaction. This has created demand for users and businesses to rent Energy instead.
By receiving temporary Energy delegated from another account, users can perform eligible TRON transactions without maintaining enough staked TRX for their maximum resource requirements.
For businesses processing frequent TRC-20 transactions, choosing to rent TRON Energy can therefore provide another way to manage network costs and reduce USDT fees.
A Two-Sided Marketplace for Energy
Unlike platforms where rental conditions are determined entirely by the provider, TronBid allows both sides of the market to create orders.
Buyers can create BUY orders specifying the amount of Energy required, rental duration and price they are willing to pay.
Sellers can create SELL offers with their own amount, price and rental period. Buyers can purchase all or part of these offers directly.
For example, if a seller offers 600,000 Energy, one buyer can rent 350,000 Energy, leaving the remaining amount available for other buyers.
Creating a SELL offer does not reserve the seller’s Energy. If resources become unavailable because they are being used elsewhere, recurring offers can automatically pause and become active again when sufficient Energy returns.
This allows sellers to participate in the TronBid marketplace while continuing to manage their resources elsewhere.
Rent Energy Without Waiting for the Marketplace
For users who need resources immediately, TronBid also provides Quick Rent with predefined Energy packages and short rental periods.
Energy can be delivered directly to any specified TRON address, even when payment is made from another wallet.
TronBid has also introduced Flash Recharge, an alternative designed for wallets that already maintain their own Energy capacity but need to manage consumed resources.
Energy and Bandwidth Trading
TronBid’s marketplace supports both Energy and Bandwidth, allowing holders of staked TRX to monetize the network resources their stake generates.
This creates two sides of the ecosystem: users who need to rent TRON Energy or Bandwidth and resource owners looking to make unused capacity available to the market.
By allowing both buyers and sellers to determine their own terms, TronBid aims to create more transparent price discovery based on actual supply and demand.
B2B API to Reduce USDT Fees at Scale
TronBid also provides a B2B Quick Rent API for exchanges, payment processors, wallets, OTC services and other businesses processing frequent TRON transactions.
Businesses can maintain a prepaid balance and automatically request Energy for specified TRON addresses before executing transactions.
Instead of manually renting resources for every transfer, companies can integrate Energy rental directly into their transaction infrastructure.
For businesses handling large numbers of USDT TRC-20 transfers, this can make it easier to rent Energy automatically and manage the network-resource component of transaction costs.
TronBid Becomes a TRON SR Partner
Alongside the expansion of its marketplace, TronBid has become a TRON Super Representative Partner, adding the project to TRON’s delegated proof-of-stake governance ecosystem.
The development strengthens TronBid’s connection with the underlying TRON ecosystem while the platform continues building infrastructure around Energy and Bandwidth.
About TronBid
TronBid is a peer-to-peer marketplace for TRON Energy and Bandwidth. Buyers can rent TRON Energy, create BUY orders or purchase existing seller offers, while resource owners can create SELL offers with their own prices and rental periods.
The platform also provides Quick Rent, Flash Recharge and a B2B API for businesses looking to automate Energy rental and reduce USDT fees for TRC-20 transactions.

For example, if a seller offers 600,000 Energy, one buyer can rent 350,000 Energy, leaving the remaining amount available for other buyers.
Creating a SELL offer does not reserve the seller’s Energy. If resources become unavailable because they are being used elsewhere, recurring offers can automatically pause and become active again when sufficient Energy returns.
This allows sellers to participate in the TronBid marketplace while continuing to manage their resources elsewhere.
Rent Energy Without Waiting for the Marketplace
For users who need resources immediately, TronBid also provides Quick Rent with predefined Energy packages and short rental periods.
Energy can be delivered directly to any specified TRON address, even when payment is made from another wallet.
TronBid has also introduced Flash Recharge, an alternative designed for wallets that already maintain their own Energy capacity but need to manage consumed resources.
Energy and Bandwidth Trading
TronBid’s marketplace supports both Energy and Bandwidth, allowing holders of staked TRX to monetize the network resources their stake generates.
This creates two sides of the ecosystem: users who need to rent TRON Energy or Bandwidth and resource owners looking to make unused capacity available to the market.
By allowing both buyers and sellers to determine their own terms, TronBid aims to create more transparent price discovery based on actual supply and demand.
B2B API to Reduce USDT Fees at Scale
TronBid also provides a B2B Quick Rent API for exchanges, payment processors, wallets, OTC services and other businesses processing frequent TRON transactions.
Businesses can maintain a prepaid balance and automatically request Energy for specified TRON addresses before executing transactions.
Instead of manually renting resources for every transfer, companies can integrate Energy rental directly into their transaction infrastructure.
For businesses handling large numbers of USDT TRC-20 transfers, this can make it easier to rent Energy automatically and manage the network-resource component of transaction costs.
TronBid Becomes a TRON SR Partner
Alongside the expansion of its marketplace, TronBid has become a TRON Super Representative Partner, adding the project to TRON’s delegated proof-of-stake governance ecosystem.
The development strengthens TronBid’s connection with the underlying TRON ecosystem while the platform continues building infrastructure around Energy and Bandwidth.

The Tron network has just passed a new milestone with more than 400 million registered accounts. This growth comes less than three years after crossing 200 million accounts and confirms its rise. Since its launch in June 2018, the network has gradually established itself in stablecoin transfers. Its cumulative volume approaches 30 trillion dollars, while USDT is the main driver of this usage.
In brief TRON surpasses 400 million accounts after doubling its base in less than three years. The network has processed more than 15.2 billion transactions, for a cumulative volume close to 30 trillion dollars. USDT remains at the heart of activity, with 51.4% of USDT in circulation on TRON. TRON Inc. now holds 711.5 million TRX after purchasing 145,199 additional tokens. Tron doubles its number of accounts in less than three years The TRON network launched its genesis block in June 2018. It took four years to reach the first 100 million accounts. Then growth accelerated, crossing 200 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The milestone of 300 million came in the second quarter of 2025, before a growth of 100 million in just a few months.
On August 23, Tron surpassed 400 million accounts. This milestone shows an increase in the registered base since the network’s launch. Daily data, thus, provides a different perspective on the effective use of the blockchain.
Since its launch, the network has processed more than 15.2 billion transactions according to TRANSCAN data. Its total transfer volume approaches 30 trillion dollars. This activity places the network among the most active settlement systems in the global crypto sector to date. The evolution of the TRX price does not change this measure, which is based on operations performed on the network.
The TRON network surpasses 15 billion cumulative transactions, driven by the continuous growth of its on-chain activity. Source: TONSCAN. USDT concentrates activity and supports payments The network’s growth seems mainly linked to stablecoins, notably USDT. Tron currently manages 51.4% of all USDT in circulation. This amount reached 94.2 billion dollars this week, after an increase of about 3 billion in a single day. These figures show the growing weight of digital dollar transfers on the blockchain.
Over the last 30 days, the Tron network currently records an average of 4.64 million active accounts each day. At the same time, the blockchain adds about 170,000 new addresses per day. This momentum remains high and shows that Tron maintains intense activity related to payments and stablecoin movements.
According to a report from Bitcoin News, Tron already captures 52% of low-value USDT transfers worldwide. This share suggests a crucial use for retail payments and cross-border transfers. However, daily activity data show a more nuanced situation compared to other networks.
Growth to be put into perspective with activity Reaching 400 million accounts exceeds the cumulative figures of some older networks. Yet Ethereum retains a clear lead when looking at daily active addresses. More than 500,000 addresses perform transactions there each day, against about 350,000 for Bitcoin. The total number of accounts and daily activity therefore do not exactly describe the same reality.
In this context, Tron pursues a trajectory mainly oriented towards payments and stablecoin transfers. This specialization explains part of its importance in USDT settlements. It remains to be determined whether this use can gradually extend to other segments of on-chain finance. Future development will notably depend on the network’s ability to broaden uses beyond transfers between wallets.
Moreover, Tron Inc., the corporate treasury branch of the network, has purchased 145,199 additional TRX. The company paid, on average, 0.3444 dollars per token, raising its holdings to 711.5 million TRX. Their value reaches about 245 million dollars. At the time of writing, the TRX price was trading near 0.3344 dollars, for a capitalization of about 32.6 billion.
In the short term, the account growth confirms a continuous expansion of the ecosystem. However, the comparison with Ethereum shows that cumulative size is not sufficient to measure a network’s vitality. Tron will therefore need to demonstrate whether its role in USDT payments can support broader diversification. Usage evolution will especially measure the real scope of this new milestone.

Iran's Foreign Ministry: Vows to Resolutely Respond to Any Military Aggression by the Enemy
Iran's Foreign Ministry announced that Iran's armed forces launched an attack on a U.S. military base in Jordan in retaliation for the U.S. strike on Iran's Larak Island. The ministry emphasized that Iran's armed forces will not hesitate to exercise their inherent right to self-defense and will take appropriate, resolute responses to any military aggression by the enemy. The U.S. strike on parts of Larak Island violated Iran's national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and constituted a clear violation of the UN Charter. It called on the UN Security Council and the UN Secretary-General to fulfill their duties to maintain international peace and security and hold the aggressor accountable. Iran's Foreign Ministry also stated that the U.S. and all parties supporting its military operations bear full responsibility for the consequences of the escalating situation. It further noted that the U.S. base in Jordan was used to launch and support the attack on Larak Island, adding that the U.S.'s new act of aggression, along with the ongoing impacts of its maritime blockade and economic war against Iran, are the full responsibility of the U.S. and all parties involved in planning and executing the relevant actions. Earlier reports showed that Tasnim News Agency cited Iran's military as claiming to have launched dozens of drones at the UAE's Al Minhad Air Base. Separately, Iran's state television reported that the Iranian military carried out a drone attack on the Al Minhad Air Base in the UAE earlier on Monday.

Latest Assessment by US VCs After China Visit: AI Capabilities Need to Cross the Pacific Twice to Be Sold to US Clients
Beating AI Insight News Brief: U.S. venture capital firm Dimension spent a week in China, visiting AI labs, investors, and founders, then wrote a 5-page internal letter to its limited partners (LPs). The firm previously conducted research in Shanghai last year; this trip covered Beijing and Shanghai, with the goal of recalibrating its assessment of China’s AI sector. A key finding highlighted is that China’s open-weight models have entered the production pipelines of U.S. AI companies. For example, Cursor’s Composer 2 was further trained on Kimi K2.5, while legal AI firm Harvey’s Tenet model underwent post-training on Kimi K3. Dimension summarized this cross-Pacific value chain as a "two-way trans-Pacific flow": U.S. labs first train cutting-edge models, Chinese labs absorb these capabilities and release open-weight models, then U.S. application companies further train on the Chinese models to build products sold to U.S. enterprises. However, despite surging usage, revenue has not accrued proportionally to Chinese model firms. Dimension summed this up in one sentence: "China is getting Western workloads, not Western revenue." Open-weight models can be deployed across multiple platforms, with U.S. inference firms like Fireworks, Baseten, and Modal capturing the bulk of service fees. Chinese models drive down costs, ultimately benefiting U.S. cloud providers, inference platforms, and AI application companies as well. Dimension’s final assessment is that it is no longer feasible to simply split China and U.S. AI into two separate systems. Hardware like chips is being decoupled: the U.S. faces constraints from power and grid infrastructure, while China lacks advanced chips. Yet models, data, inference services, and software frameworks continue to flow across borders. Debating "which side is winning the China-U.S. AI race" in simplistic terms no longer reflects the real industrial chain.

Hyperliquid launches PONS perpetual contract, now trading at $0.33.
According to official announcements, Hyperliquid has launched Pons (PONS) perpetual contracts, with a maximum leverage of up to 3x. The current mark price is 0.32999, and the contract open interest stands at $524,866. The current funding rate for the PONS contract is -0.0823%.
Executive Summary Stablecoin supply on TRON grew 9.2% to USD 89.2 billion, more than six times the total market’s 1.5% growth. Transfer volume rose 4.1% quarter-on-quarter as the broader market fell 28.3%, while decentralized finance (DeFi) total value locked (TVL) held flat through a market that lost more than a third of its value. This was not a broad ecosystem expansion but a settlement-share gain: TRON’s core rails held up while adjacent crypto activity weakened.
Settlement was the engine behind that divergence. USDT made up 98.5% of stablecoin supply on TRON, and the network cleared USD 4.01 trillion in H1 transfer volume, ranking third among major chains. Its stablecoin holder base grew from 87.8 million to 96.4 million addresses, the largest among major stablecoin networks, indicating that demand for high-frequency, low-cost stablecoin settlement did not cool in H1.
The second theme grew out of the first: artificial intelligence (AI). Agents need a wallet, an identity, a payment rail, and a way to execute. TRON already operates the payment rail at scale, so its H1 AI push extended the settlement business rather than departing from it, with B.AI, also known as Bank of AI, providing the clearest proof point.
Stablecoin Supply Grew While the Market Stalled TRON DAO’s stablecoin supply reached USD 89.2 billion by June 30, representing 28.7% of the entire stablecoin market and ranking second only to Ethereum. Its 9.2% H1 growth was more than six times the broader market’s 1.5%, while Ethereum’s stablecoin supply fell 5.8%.
TRON added supply during a half when its largest peer lost it. That growth sits almost entirely on USDT, which rose to USD 87.9 billion and accounted for nearly all stablecoin liquidity on the network. The concentration limits asset diversity, but it also makes TRON one of the primary settlement venues for the largest stablecoin in crypto.
The holder base tells the same story. Addresses holding stablecoins on TRON grew from 87.8 million to 96.4 million, representing more than 35% of holders across major networks and the largest distribution among them.
For a payments chain, that distribution base matters. Liquidity can move quickly, but a holder network of 96.4 million addresses is harder to replicate.
TRON Was the Only Top-Five Transfer Network to Rise TRON ranked third by H1 transfer volume, clearing USD 4.01 trillion by June 30, behind Base and Ethereum and ahead of Solana and BNB Chain. The ranking is less important than the direction: among the five largest transfer networks, TRON was the only one whose Q2 transfer volume rose. It gained 4.1% over Q1 while the broader market fell 28.3%. The other four networks all dropped by at least 26%, with Ethereum and Solana both falling 26.6%, BNB Chain falling 33.8%, and Base falling 35.8%.
TRON gained share by holding its ground while the field retreated. Usage data points to the same payment-heavy pattern: by June 30, the network had reached 14.59 billion cumulative transactions and 390.7 million total accounts, with 4.96 million active accounts over the preceding 24 hours. TRON processed 2.04 billion transactions in H1, equivalent to approximately 11.3 million per day. Frequent stablecoin movement, rather than episodic speculation, remained the core activity base. For transfer activity, the H1 story was durability rather than acceleration, and its source was a single use case: high-frequency, low-cost stablecoin settlement.
DeFi Held Flat While the Market Lost a Third DeFi was not TRON’s growth engine in H1, but its TVL outperformed the market by standing still. Total DeFi TVL across chains fell from USD 114.5 billion to USD 70.3 billion, a 38.6% decline in H1. TRON’s TVL moved from USD 4.40 billion to USD 4.43 billion, increasing 0.8% in a market that lost more than a third of its value.
The steady headline hid an internal rotation. JustLend V1 fell from USD 3.70 billion to USD 2.94 billion, while USDD TVL expanded from USD 486 million to USD 1.30 billion and USDD supply on TRON grew from USD 536 million to USD 1.08 billion. TRON’s DeFi liquidity therefore rotated toward USDD-linked yield products.
Trading activity also softened, although less than the broader market. Total decentralized exchange (DEX) volume across chains fell from USD 916.8 billion in Q1 to USD 628.8 billion in Q2, a 31.4% decline, while TRON DEX volume decreased from USD 5.67 billion to USD 4.49 billion, down 20.8%. The weakness was in activity rather than retention: trading cooled and JustLend contracted, while USDD absorbed more liquidity.
Resource Income Showed Settlement Demand More Clearly Than DeFi Trading TRONSCAN network resource income reached USD 1.31 billion in H1, averaging USD 7.25 million per day. Energy-related income accounted for USD 1.13 billion of that total, tracking demand for high-frequency transfers and contract execution.
The income profile matched the rest of TRON’s H1 performance: settlement was the economic engine, even as DeFi trading cooled. Token economics reflected the trade-off behind inexpensive execution, with H1 daily burn averaging 3.05 million TRX against issuance of 3.92 million TRX per day and leaving the network in mild net issuance. Lower execution costs supported payment density while also limiting burn pressure.
AI Extended the Payment Rail Rather Than Replacing It AI agents need four things to transact: a wallet, an identity, a payment rail, and a way to execute. TRON already operates the payment rail at scale, so its H1 AI work extended infrastructure the chain already had. The commitments scaled across the stack through a USD 1 billion AI fund, an Agentic AI Foundation board seat, OpenWallet, and a wave of Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations exposing TRON’s data and liquidity to agents. Those announcements broadened the network’s surface area.
B.AI supplied the traction data. As of late June, B.AI’s daily token throughput had reached 15.37 billion, with a peak of 18.69 billion. Application programming interface (API) traffic made up 99.6% of usage, registered users approached 2 million, and TRON accounted for more than 70% of onchain payment and deposit activity. AI compute, API workflows, and crypto-native payments are starting to meet on TRON’s settlement layer. If the early B.AI activity persists, TRON’s AI angle will be less about building a new narrative and more about adding a new source of demand for the same settlement layer: API users, agent wallets, and stablecoin deposits.
H2 Will Test Whether Settlement Becomes Agent Infrastructure TRON enters H2 with a large stablecoin base, the largest holder distribution among major stablecoin networks, transfer activity that held up through a market-wide decline, DeFi TVL that stayed flat while the broader market contracted, and early traction in AI-agent infrastructure. The metrics to watch are stablecoin supply growth, transfer-volume durability, resource income, recurring activity from B.AI, and whether MCP integrations convert from infrastructure announcements into measurable agent-driven transaction flow.
H1 confirmed TRON’s role as a settlement network. The open question for H2 is whether that settlement layer can turn early AI-agent application traction into recurring transactions, deposits, and resource demand. Track TRON’s security posture on CertiK Skynet.

Recent rapid advancements in quantum computing technology have brought the quantum threat back to the forefront of security concerns for cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin.
Therefore, many altcoin developers, especially Bitcoin developers, have started working on quantum resistant technology.
One of these altcoins is Tron, and its founder, Justin Sun, made statements regarding Bitcoin and Tron’s quantum roadmap.
Speaking at the ‘Bitcoin Asia 2026’ conference in Hong Kong, Justin Sun said that the TRON network is planned to be made resilient against quantum computing attacks by the end of the year.
Quantum Resistant Infrastructure Work Continues for TRON! Justin Sun stated that TRON has been working on quantum resistivity technology for about a year.
Sun stated that a quantum-resistant address system was implemented in the test network in the first half of 2026, and that the network is continuing to be prepared against future security threats that quantum computers may pose.
Sun also stated that he plans to switch to a quantum-resilient network by the end of this year.
“Tron is proactively improving its quantum computing response technology and plans to upgrade Tron to a quantum-resistive network by the end of this year.”
The Process for Bitcoin is More Complex! In contrast, Sun said that Bitcoin’s process of developing solutions against quantum threats could take longer.
Sun noted that Bitcoin has a highly decentralized ecosystem involving miners, cryptocurrency exchanges, WBTC, and many other stakeholders, which makes reaching a consensus on a common solution difficult.

TRON has activated a network upgrade designed to make Ethereum applications easier to bring onto its blockchain.
Proposal 107 received 25 approvals before taking effect on August 28, with the changes providing the groundwork for wallets that use passkeys instead of conventional passwords.
Ethereum applications face fewer barriers The upgrade introduces features from Ethereum’s Prague and Osaka updates to the TRON Virtual Machine, which runs applications on the network.
Now developers have less of the software to change to allow an application to move from one network [such as Ethereum] to the others [such as TRON].
TRON developers had to adjust for newer Ethereum tools, meaning errors or older settings for dApps in the TRON ecosystem.
The proposal brings the two environments closer together, and make TRON more attractive to teams that already build Ethereum applications.
Further to this, the upgrade will enable an application to look further back into the blockchain to verify transactions previously made, helping services where earlier transactions need to be confirmed and rely less on data providers.
How passkeys could make TRON wallets easier to use Instead of remembering passwords, users can sign in to applications using the security features built into phones or computers. These features depend on the computer being used but include fingerprints, a scan of the user’s face or a PIN.
The new capability makes it cheaper for TRON applications to verify signatures created through systems such as Apple Secure Enclave and Android Keystore. Wallets that offer a more familiar sign-in experience could get more support without users personally managing every security step.
But passkeys have not suddenly just appeared across existing TRON wallets. The upgrade provides the underlying support, while wallet and application developers must decide how to use it.
Similarly, the cost of some expensive security computations is lowered in proposal 107, but the extent of savings will depend heavily on the way in which particular applications are compiled.
TRON’s governance record shows that the upgrade is now active.
Final Summary Proposal 107 passed with 25 approvals and activated on August 28. The upgrade makes Ethereum applications easier to adapt and allows some other key features.
Justin Sun has taken his breakup with Chinese actress Jing Tian to court. The TRON founder is suing her and her parents to recover roughly $4.5 million.
The filing landed alongside a sprawling personal essay Sun posted on X, which drew more than 33 million views in a day. Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) has since called for restraint.
How Justin Sun and Jing Tian Ended Up in CourtThe two met in Hong Kong and dated through late 2025. Sun proposed on a Maldives island in January, then wired the 30 million yuan to two accounts held by her parents.
Justin Sun and Jing Tian. Source: X/Justin SunBy late February, the relationship had moved to California. Jing Tian checked into a Laguna Beach resort ahead of an egg retrieval procedure, part of a surrogacy plan Sun says she raised herself.
The Tron founder writes that she phoned him on the 8th day and named a price of $50 million before proceeding. He says he ran his cash position through Claude AI, was told to refuse, and went quiet. She hung up and left.
Together with the bride price his lawyers are now chasing, that figure puts the dispute at $54.5 million.
“If I had given her the money that day, would she have stayed?” wrote Justin Sun.
He later told Hong Kong outlet The Standard that he still cannot say whether the machine’s judgment, or his own, was right.
Jing, 38, has now fired back without directly addressing Sun’s individual claims.
“I will never sell my love for money,” Jing Tian wrote on Weibo, adding that she believes the courts will ultimately establish the truth.
Her studio has similarly said the dispute should be handled through legal proceedings.
Why CZ Called Him OutCZ drew a line between marketing and personal damage. Hard promotion is fair, he wrote. Wrecking a career is not.
Follow us on X to get the latest news as it happens
The framing matters. Zhao read the essay as a marketing exercise rather than a confession, and drew the line at reputational damage. This time his sparring partner is not Star Xu, the OKX founder whose long-running clash with CZ has flared repeatedly this year.

TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), participated in a training forum organized by the Digital Currencies Governance Group (DCGG) and Brazil’s National Council of the Public Ministry (CNMP) in Brasília, Brazil, on August 26-27, 2026.
The event, titled “Cryptoassets, From Tracing to Recovery: Cooperation for the Recovery and Custody of Cryptoassets,” brought together more than 100 senior participants from Brazil’s regulatory, law-enforcement, prosecutorial, and judicial institutions, including representatives from the Central Bank of Brazil, Public Prosecutor’s Offices across the country, the Federal Revenue Service, and the National Council of Justice. Discussions focused on digital crime, crypto asset recovery, stablecoins, new typologies of illicit activity, and approaches to prevention, investigation, and risk analysis in digital operations.
TRON DAO was represented by Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson, and John O. Hurston, General Counsel for TRON, who contributed to sessions examining blockchain infrastructure, transaction transparency, and cross-sector cooperation in the investigation and recovery of digital assets.
Elfarra participated in the session “The Blockchain Ecosystem,” providing an overview of how the TRON blockchain operates and discussing transaction transparency, stablecoins, and blockchain traceability. The session examined how the transparency of public blockchain networks can help law-enforcement authorities trace transactions and better understand the movement of digital assets. Elfarra also highlighted industry-led initiatives such as T3 Financial Crime Unit (T3 FCU) and their role in efforts to identify and address illicit activity involving digital assets.
Hurston spoke on the panel “Crypto Asset Recovery through Cross-Sector Cooperation: Freezing, Seizure, and Restitution of Funds,” moderated by Lorena Bittencourt, Public Prosecutor at the Goiás State Prosecutor’s Office and Auxiliary Member of CNMP. The panel also included Deborah Di Lullo, Blockchain Investigator and Law Enforcement Liaison at Tether; Lister Caldas Filho, Public Prosecutor at the São Paulo State Prosecutor’s Office; and Fabiano Gonçalves Cossermelli Oliveira, Public Prosecutor at the Rio de Janeiro State Prosecutor’s Office. The discussion examined how public authorities, law-enforcement agencies, and private-sector participants can coordinate efforts to trace, freeze, seize, and recover digital assets while strengthening investigative processes and risk mitigation.
The forum marked TRON DAO’s first engagement with CNMP and helped establish direct institutional relationships with Brazilian authorities. TRON was the only blockchain represented at the event, allowing TRON to bring a technical perspective on blockchain infrastructure to discussions with law-enforcement and prosecutorial authorities.
“Engagements like this help build direct, constructive relationships with public institutions and give authorities a better understanding of how blockchain technology works in practice,” said Elfarra. “As Brazil develops its approach to digital assets, TRON looks forward to sharing technical expertise and supporting regulation that is familiar with and informed by how the technology works in practice.”
The second day of the event featured dedicated training for law-enforcement and prosecutorial authorities, providing an opportunity for participants to examine practical approaches to investigating digital asset activity and addressing emerging forms of digital crime.
As Brazil continues to develop its approach to digital assets, TRON DAO remains committed to supporting informed policymaking through continued engagement with public institutions and constructive dialogue on secure, transparent approaches to digital assets.

Tron Inc. shares recorded another strong session, climbing 7.49% to close at $2.01, bringing the company’s five-day gain to 26.42%. The rally follows recent moves to expand the digital asset holdings of the Nasdaq-listed technology firm.
TRX Treasury ExpansionThe company disclosed the purchase of an additional 145,002 TRX at an average price of approximately $0.3448, pushing its total holdings to over 711.2 million tokens. Based on current prices, this TRX treasury now stands at an estimated value of $245 million.
Tron Inc. has steadily accumulated TRX since launching its digital asset treasury program in June 2025. By June 30, 2026, the company’s digital asset position exceeded 709 million TRX, with a reported cumulative gain of $15.8 million.
Tron Inc. continues to increase its TRX reserves, mirroring the approach of major corporations that have adopted crypto-based treasury strategies, but focuses primarily on TRX rather than Bitcoin.
This strategy marks a departure from the more common Bitcoin treasury models led by several high-profile U.S. corporations. In Tron Inc.’s case, building a substantial TRX position is tightly integrated with the company’s wider business model and ambitions within the TRON ecosystem.
Super Representative Candidacy and Network GrowthTron Inc. has announced plans to seek election as one of TRON’s 27 Super Representatives, key participants responsible for validating transactions, block production, and network governance within the TRON blockchain.
Super Representatives, according to the company’s Nasdaq filing, earned nearly 122 million TRX in block rewards in 2025. Becoming a Super Representative would potentially allow Tron Inc. to contribute directly to the network’s security and participate in its future development.
Mini dictionary: TRON Super Representative — Elected entities on the TRON blockchain that validate transactions, produce new blocks, share in block rewards, and play an important role in network governance decisions.
TRON Blockchain Growth and ActivityThe company’s latest moves coincide with major network milestones: TRON recently surpassed 400 million total blockchain accounts. The network, launched in 2018, is known for its high throughput and role in powering stablecoin transactions.
Data from TRONSCAN indicates average daily active accounts reached 4.64 million over the past month, with several days in August surpassing 5 million. Activity on the network is heavily driven by stablecoin settlements, particularly involving Tether (USDT), underscoring TRON’s importance in the digital dollar infrastructure.
Stablecoin transfers, especially in USDT, remain at the heart of TRON’s robust network activity and set it apart from other platforms more focused on speculative trading.
Coinpaper recently observed that TRON’s high transaction volume and growing network revenue have positioned it for increased institutional attention. Additionally, the regulatory outlook has improved, as a proposed SEC settlement would see most claims against Justin Sun and related TRON entities dismissed.
Market Divergence and Future OutlookWhile Tron Inc.’s stock has rallied, the performance of TRX itself has been more reserved, trading near $0.344 with a market capitalization of about $32.6 billion. The discrepancy suggests equity investors may be assigning Tron Inc. a premium for its aggressive treasury strategy and plans to play a greater role within the TRON ecosystem.
AssetPriceMarket Cap5-Day ChangeTron Inc. (share)$2.01N/A+26.42%TRX (token)$0.344$32.6 billionN/AThe company’s next challenge will be to translate its expanding TRX position and potential Super Representative status into sustainable revenues, rather than relying solely on token appreciation to drive its valuation.

Trader Lu Yao: The Bear Market Is Not Over, Vast Majority of Altcoins Still Not Worth Buying
Well-known cryptocurrency trader Lu Yao stated in a recent post that the current crypto market remains in a major bear cycle, but may have entered the first half of the late bear phase—a stage dubbed the "monkey market," marked by sharp, erratic price swings. The ongoing rally is expected to continue, with Bitcoin potentially testing $90,000 to $100,000. However, based on its duration and prior declines, the bear cycle has not yet concluded, and the market may still face significant volatility ahead. Crypto investors should avoid being fully invested or holding no positions at this stage; instead, they should trade with a moderate position size, selling on sharp rises and buying on deep dips, adopting a flexible strategy that steers clear of both extreme bullishness and bearishness. The market remains in a "super high volatility" phase, with 99.9% of altcoins still not worth purchasing. Investors should control their positions and exercise caution.
Tron Inc. added 145,002 TRX to its corporate treasury on Monday, pushing total holdings past 711.2 million tokens. Shares of the Nasdaq-listed company closed their latest session 7.49% higher at $2.01.
Meanwhile, the underlying TRON blockchain crossed 400 million total accounts. Founder Justin Sun marked both developments on X.
Why the Tron Treasury Playbook Is WorkingTron Inc. buys TRX almost every trading day, and the rhythm echoes Strategy’s long Bitcoin accumulation run. The company reached the Nasdaq through a mid-2025 reverse merger with toy maker SRM Entertainment. Since then, management has treated the treasury as its central investor story.
Monday’s purchase landed at an average price of $0.3448 per token. At current prices, the full stack carries a value near $245 million. Back in March, the same MicroStrategy model comparison covered a balance of just 686 million tokens.
The setup gives shareholders exposure to TRX without any wallet or exchange account. In return, they accept the equity risk that comes with a small-cap listing. Rival treasury vehicles have posted heavy paper losses this year whenever their chosen token slipped.
Investors have rewarded that consistency so far. The stock climbed 26.42% across five sessions and 34% over the past month. Year to date it trades 60.80% higher, with a 58.27% gain across six months. That 2026 run has recovered most of last year’s decline, and the trend still points up.
Tron Inc. Stock Chart. Source: TradingViewSun keeps pressing the company to buy more. In April, he called for faster TRX treasury expansion as holdings crossed 693 million tokens. His response on Monday ran to two words.
400 Million Accounts Shift the StoryTRONSCAN data confirmed the account threshold. Sun then amplified the figure with a short post of his own.
Growth has arrived steadily rather than suddenly. In July, daily signups hit a one-month high of 230,862 new accounts. June delivered record active addresses alongside a broadly healthy on-chain picture.
Much of that traffic comes from stablecoin transfers. TRON carries a large share of global Tether (USDT) settlement, especially across emerging markets where fees matter most. Account totals therefore track payment demand more closely than speculative trading.
The token itself has lagged the equity, however. TRX trades near $0.344, up 0.45% on the day, with a market value of $32.65 billion and eighth place among all crypto assets.
That gap defines the trade. Tron Inc. shares react to treasury headlines far more than TRX does, a pattern visible across other digital asset treasury companies this year. It remains to be seen how the daily purchase program will affect the price relationship between the stock and the underlying token in the long term.
TRON (TRX) is approaching a key technical crossroads as price action suggests shifting market momentum. Market participants are closely monitoring the situation, as both technical and institutional factors could influence the direction of the cryptocurrency.
Technical patterns point to rising cautionCrypto analyst Crypto With Gopal reported that TRX is currently forming a rising wedge pattern on its daily chart. This technical formation typically suggests that bullish momentum is beginning to weaken, with the price advancing within increasingly narrow boundaries.
While buyers have managed to push TRX higher recently, the contracting shape of the chart pattern signals that bullish strength is fading. Gopal identified the critical support zone between $0.30 and $0.31. If the price moves below this level, selling pressure could accelerate and TRX might correct toward $0.15.
In the analysis, a breakdown from the wedge-level support could trigger a further decline to $0.15, while a successful breakout above $0.36–$0.38 would indicate renewed strength and set the stage for a move toward $0.45.
Conversely, should TRX break out above the resistance band of $0.36 to $0.38, it could invalidate the bearish formation and open the way for a rally to $0.45.
Resistance LevelsSupport LevelsTarget (Breakdown)Target (Breakout)$0.36–$0.38$0.30–$0.31$0.15$0.45Institutional accumulation highlights confidenceAs these chart signals emerge, Tron Inc., the technology company behind the TRON blockchain platform, has continued to increase its TRX reserves. The firm recently acquired 146,214 TRX tokens at an average price of $0.3420.
This purchase has brought Tron Inc.’s total TRX treasury to over 710.9 million tokens, reflecting its long-term commitment to the network. The company stated its intention to further grow its holdings in Tron DAT, aiming to enhance long-term shareholder value through ongoing accumulation of TRX.
Mini dictionary: Tron DAT, or Tron Digital Asset Trust, is a fund or trust structure designed to hold large quantities of TRX and provide exposure to the cryptocurrency for institutional investors. These types of vehicles are commonly used by firms to build and manage digital asset reserves.
Companies building crypto treasuries in this way have attracted attention across the broader blockchain sector, as such moves point to increasing institutional confidence in digital assets.
Tron Inc.’s strategy of accumulating TRX through the expansion of its treasury is part of a broader trend among technology companies seeking to increase their influence and value within blockchain-based ecosystems.
Market data and outlookAt press time, TRX trades at $0.3451, reflecting a 24-hour trading volume of $998.03 million. The network’s market capitalization currently stands at $32.75 billion. The recent 1.49% daily price gain has prompted speculation that a bullish reversal might be on the horizon, provided TRX can break above established resistance levels.
Investors are expected to keep a close watch on both technical developments and continued institutional accumulation. The key levels to watch include support at $0.30–$0.31 and resistance at $0.36–$0.38.
A decisive move could set the pace for TRX’s next trend, with many participants considering future Tron Inc. acquisitions as potential signals of ongoing confidence in the cryptocurrency.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, August 21st, 2026, FinanceWire
Bitcoin.com, one of the world’s most widely used cryptocurrency platforms, today announced that its self-custody Bitcoin.com Wallet app now natively supports the TRON network. Users can hold, send, swap, and buy TRX and USDT on TRON directly within the mobile application.
TRON has established itself as one of the most widely used networks for USDT settlement, with USDT-TRC20 accepted for deposits and withdrawals across a broad range of major exchanges and payment services. That breadth of acceptance has made it a common choice for exchange-to-exchange transfers and for dollar-denominated payments in emerging markets, supporting the reliable movement of stablecoins at scale. By integrating TRON natively, Bitcoin.com Wallet users can transact with counterparties who ask for a TRC20 address without leaving the wallet or installing anything new.
“Our users do not think in terms of chains. They think about who they need to pay and what that person asked them for. A very large number of those requests say USDT on TRON, and until now we could not answer them. That is the gap this closes,” said Bitcoin.com CEO Corbin Fraser.
With this launch, Bitcoin.com Wallet users can:
Hold TRX and USDT-TRC20 alongside their existing portfolio. Send and receive TRX and TRC20 tokens to any TRON address. Swap between TRX, supported TRC20 tokens, and other supported assets in-app. Buy TRX and USDT-TRC20 directly with a card or bank transfer. “With more than $90 billion in USDT circulating on TRON and $23 billion in daily transfer volume, TRON is already a leading network for stablecoin payments,” said Justin Sun, Founder of TRON. “Users want to hold and spend stablecoins on TRON directly from the wallets they use every day. Bitcoin.com Wallet’s integration meets that demand, bringing TRON’s settlement infrastructure into a familiar wallet and making stablecoin payments faster, simpler, and more accessible.”
Bitcoin.com Wallet users can now access TRX and USDT-TRC20 natively, without bridging assets, managing a separate wallet, or leaving the mobile application. TRON’s functionality is now built into a wallet people already use for their everyday crypto activity. The TRON integration is available now on iOS, Android, and web.
About Bitcoin.com
Bitcoin.com is on a mission to increase the freedom and prosperity of people everywhere by providing easy access to Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, and other leading cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin.com Wallet is a non-custodial, multi-chain wallet used by millions of people worldwide to hold, send, swap, and buy digital assets.
TRON DAO is a community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet via blockchain technology and dApps.
Founded in September 2017, the TRON blockchain has experienced significant growth since its MainNet launch in May 2018. Until recently, TRON hosted the largest circulating supply of USD Tether (USDT) stablecoin, which currently exceeds $91 billion. As of August 2026, the TRON blockchain has recorded over 399 million in total user accounts, more than 15 billion in total transactions, and over $28 billion in total value locked (TVL), based on TRONSCAN. Recognized as the global settlement layer for stablecoin transactions and everyday purchases with proven success, TRON is “Moving Trillions, Empowering Billions.”
TRONNetwork | TRONDAO | X | YouTube | Telegram | Discord | Reddit | GitHub | Medium | Forum
Bitcoin.com has added native TRON network support to its self-custody wallet app, letting users hold, send, receive, swap, and buy TRC20 tokens without needing a separate wallet or bridging tool. The update is live across iOS, Android, and web platforms.
It’s a meaningful expansion for a wallet that has generated over 85 million wallets since launching in 2015. And it taps into what has quietly become one of the busiest highways in crypto: TRON’s stablecoin corridor.
Why TRON, and why now TRON’s network currently carries over $90 billion in circulating USDT and processes roughly $23 billion in daily transfer volume. Those numbers make it the dominant chain for Tether activity, particularly in emerging markets where low fees and fast finality matter more than decentralization philosophy.

The network has also crossed some notable milestones. More than 399 million total accounts have been created on TRON, with over 15 billion transactions recorded. Total value locked sits above $28 billion.
Bitcoin.com CEO Corbin Fraser has framed the integration as a response to user demand for seamless stablecoin management. TRON founder Justin Sun has positioned the partnership as a step toward broader accessibility for everyday payments.
What users actually get The integration covers the full suite of wallet functionality. Users can hold TRX (TRON’s native token) and any TRC20-compliant token, with the headline asset obviously being USDT on TRON.
Swaps are supported directly within the app. So is purchasing TRC20 assets, presumably through Bitcoin.com’s existing fiat on-ramp partnerships. The key selling point is that none of this requires leaving the Bitcoin.com Wallet interface or downloading an additional app.
Bitcoin.com prepared for the rollout by publishing support documentation in its help center ahead of the launch. For a self-custody product serving tens of millions of wallets, that kind of groundwork matters.
The multi-chain wallet race heats up Bitcoin.com isn’t the first major wallet to add TRON support. MetaMask and WalletConnect both integrated TRON back in January 2026, a move that signaled the network’s growing legitimacy among infrastructure providers that had historically been Ethereum-centric.
For traders and more active users, the integration also opens up access to TRON’s low-fee environment. Sending USDT on TRON costs a fraction of what the same transaction would cost on Ethereum’s mainnet, a difference that compounds meaningfully for anyone making frequent transfers.

TRON founder Justin Sun has scored a key procedural win in his World Liberty Financial lawsuit.
On August 20, 2026, a California federal judge rejected an attempt by the Trump-backed World Liberty Financial project to push Sun’s claims into secret arbitration.
Sun’s individual claims will now proceed in open court, shining a public spotlight on a dispute that began with a $45 million investment.
California Judge Rejects WLFI’s Push for Private Arbitration Judge James Donato of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California heard arguments from both sides on August 20.
World Liberty Financial had asked the court to force all of Sun’s claims into confidential arbitration and seal the case from public view. The judge denied that request for Sun’s individual claims.
The court also declined to send every company-related claim to arbitration. Instead, the two parties were ordered to meet and work out which claims stay in open court and which might proceed privately.
Sun called the outcome a victory for transparency. “The judge ruled that all of my individual claims will remain in the public courtroom,” Sun posted on X shortly after the hearing.
The case, Sun et al. v. World Liberty Financial LLC, No. 3:26-cv-03360-JD, was filed in April 2026 and centers on Sun’s allegation that WLFI secretly embedded backdoor controls in its smart contract.
He claims those controls allowed the team to freeze, restrict, or burn token holdings without notice, and that the project used those powers against him after their relationship soured.
Sun’s $45 million commitment, $30 million in November 2024 for 2 billion tokens, plus another $15 million in January 2025, made him WLFI’s largest early backer.
He also received 1 billion tokens as an adviser. His total holdings reportedly reached around 4 billion tokens, with peak valuations estimated between $300 million and $1 billion.
The World Liberty Financial team has since expanded its institutional push, appointing a new Chief Business Officer for USD1 even as the legal battle escalates.
Backdoor Allegations and What’s at Stake for Crypto Investors At the core of Sun’s complaint is the allegation that WLFI’s smart contract was not as decentralized as marketed.
He claims the team installed hidden functions capable of freezing or destroying any holder’s tokens, and later turned those tools on his own wallet.
He also raised similar concerns about the project’s USD1 stablecoin, which reportedly carries identical freeze and burn controls.
Sun has also questioned whether World Liberty Financial holds enough capital to satisfy a judgment worth hundreds of millions.
Reports indicate WLFI posted roughly five billion tokens as collateral on Dolomite, a lending platform co-founded by WLFI’s own CTO, a detail Sun’s legal team is expected to pursue in discovery.
The project’s recent expansion moves, including a new AI partnership with WorldClaw, have continued despite the litigation.
World Liberty has denied wrongdoing. Co-founder Zach Witkoff previously called Sun’s claims “entirely meritless.”
WLFI also filed a counterclaim in Florida, accusing Sun of running a defamation campaign and engaging in improper transfers.
Wednesday’s ruling does not decide the merits of either side’s case. But keeping Sun’s claims in open court means filings, evidence, and arguments will remain visible to investors, regulators, and the public.
The case raises a broader question for the industry: when a project markets decentralization but embeds administrative override powers in its smart contract, who protects the token holder? That question now has a public stage.

Canary Capital has updated its S-1 form for Staked TRX ETF with the US SEC, revealing fees and other key details ahead of potential launch in coming weeks. TRX, the native token of Justin Sun’s TRON, has spiked nearly 2% over the past 24 hours.
Canary Staked TRX ETF Amends Filing with the US SEC Canary Capital has filed amendment no 4 to its S-1 registration statement for its Staked TRX ETF, according to the latest US SEC filing. The issuer aims to list and trade shares on Cboe BXZ Exchange under the ticker TRXS.
The filing advances the proposed spot ETF that would offer investors exposure to TRX price. It will also generate staking rewards by participating in the TRON network’s proof-of-stake process.
The most notable change from the previous amendment is the disclosure of a 1.10% management fee. The Canary Staked TRX ETF is to cover ordinary operating expenses up to $200,000 per fiscal year. However, the issuer has not disclosed any fee waiver.
Canary Staked TRX ETF expects to stake 90% of TRX under normal conditions, with staking rewards shared among staking provider, sponsor, and custodian. The total staking fees will not exceed 20% of the TRX staking rewards.
“As of the date of this prospectus, the aggregate Staking Fees are expected to be 20% of the TRX staking rewards, resulting in the Trust retaining 80% of the TRX staking rewards generated by the Staking Program,” it states.
The filing also revealed details of seed capital investor and seed investment to launch the Canary Staked TRX ETF. Canary Capital Group plans to purchase 10,000 shares at $25 per share.
TRON Price Jumps Ahead of Major Upgrade TRON price surged almost 2% in the past 24 hours, currently trading at $0.337. The 24-hour low and high are $0.3315 and $0.3374, respectively. Moreover, trading volume has increased by 75% over the last 24 hours amid broader crypto market recovery.
In the daily timeframe, the price is trading strongly above the 50-SMA and 200-SMA. Analysts predict potential updside amid major TVM compatibility upgrade. The upgrade would improve TVM compatibility, security, execution consistency, and support for newer Ethereum opcodes and precompiled contracts.
Derivatives markets showed massive buying sentiment, as per Coinglass data. At the time of writing, the total TRX futures open interest jumped more than 5% to $256.12 million in the last 4 hours.
TRON futures OI on Binance rocketed more than 9% amid Canary Staked TRX ETF amendment, while it climbed almost 2.50% on Hyperliquid and 8% on KuCoin.
Traders looking to trade these shifting trends can find competitive fees and deep liquidity on the best crypto futures trading platforms currently leading the derivatives sector.
TRON [TRX] is building up around the $0.333 price by strong ecosystem inflows and treasury buildup in the broader demand story.
TRON’s treasury has jumped to more than 710.6 million TRX after the company acquired 149,643 tokens at $0.3341.
Separately, over $100 million entered TRX and stablecoins on TRON through deBridge during the past 30 days. This activity involved 2,241 trades, with an average value of $44,600 and a maximum transaction of $2,000,000.
The TRX purchases also accounted for 32% of the total volume recorded, showing significant capital involvement in the ecosystem. These developments emerged while TRX consolidated beneath its resistance, making its technical structure important for the next price recovery.
TRX holds $0.3224 support as resistance limits recovery TRX has maintained $0.3224 after rebounding from the broader support zone extending toward $0.3100. Buyers have repeatedly defended this region, preventing the May correction from developing into a deeper structural decline.
Since then, the token’s price has bounced back to $0.3334, making the resistance level at $0.3387 attainable.
Breaking $0.3387 would expose the major supply zone around the $0.3600 and $0.3688 area. This region previously rejected Tron’s recovery sharply, making another test important for the broader bullish structure.
Meanwhile, RSI stood at 54.81 in the neutral territory, marginally below its 55.00 moving average. The neutral area allows room for buyers to further increase purchases before hitting the overbought levels.
Therefore, $0.3224 protects the recovery structure, while $0.3688 remains the major obstacle to further expansion.
Source: TradingView Fibonacci zones define TRX’s recovery toward $0.40 TRX’s Fibonacci structure identifies several potential reaction zones as price recovers from the $0.3108 swing low.
At press time, price trades around $0.3336, immediately below the 23.6% level at $0.3355. The shallow retracement zone is the first challenge to gauge if buyers can maintain the recovery.
Above it, the 38.2% level at $0.3525 represents another potential resistance area. Clearing this zone would mean that buyers are absorbing the progressively strong selling pressure.
The 50% mid-point at $0.3654 is also of importance as it coincides with the wider weekly supply area. This could, therefore, be a period of heightened selling pressure on price.
A successful move through $0.3654 would bring the 61.8% golden-ratio level at $0.3783 into focus. This zone is a major technical barrier in front of the deeper 78.6% zone at $0.3966.
Therefore, $0.3966 places Tron close to $0.40, but several reaction zones must first be reclaimed.
The directional indicators are slightly bullish, with +DI at 21.3994 compared to -DI at 18.1839. ADX at 14.1951, however, indicates low trend strength.
Source: TradingView Liquidation liquidity surrounds TRX above and below According to Binance Liquidation Heatmap, there is significant liquidity on both sides of TRX’s price.
The strongest nearby upside concentration sat around the $0.340 level. This level could attract the price after a successful break above $0.3387.
The move would help support the path to the $0.3525 Fibonacci resistance level and ultimately the higher-level supply area.
Besides, downside liquidity remains concentrated around $0.326–$0.327, though not as dense as the upside liquidity.
Source: CoinGlass Can TRX reach $0.40? TRX retains a moderately bullish structure while $0.3224 remains protected and buyers maintain their directional advantage.
Breaking $0.3387 could expose successive Fibonacci resistance zones through $0.3966. Clearing the $0.3600–$0.3688 supply region would particularly strengthen the case for $0.40.
Final Summary TRON treasury accumulation and $100 million inflows strengthen TRX’s underlying demand narrative. TRX holding $0.3224 keeps $0.3688 and eventually $0.40 within reach.
TRON is pushing forward with a significant Virtual Machine upgrade that will bring its execution environment closer to Ethereum’s, with on-chain governance votes scheduled for August 25, 2026. The upgrade introduces two key capabilities: a CLZ opcode and support for secp256r1 (P-256) signature verification, both of which have been available on Ethereum and are now making their way to TRON’s infrastructure.
Node operators have until August 16, 2026, at 23:59 Singapore time, to complete their software updates to GreatVoyage-v4.8.2, codenamed Pyrrho. Miss that window, and nodes risk falling out of sync with the rest of the network.
What the upgrade actually does Two network parameters, numbered #95 and #96, are on the ballot for August 25. If TRON’s 27 active Super Representatives approve them, the new TVM features go live across the entire network.
The first notable addition is the CLZ instruction, short for “Count Leading Zeros.” It’s a low-level operation that counts how many zero bits sit at the front of a binary number. Developers use CLZ in mathematical operations, bit manipulation, and optimizing gas costs.
The second feature is a precompiled contract for secp256r1 signature verification, commonly known as P-256. This is the elliptic curve standard used by Apple’s Secure Enclave, Android’s Keystore, WebAuthn, and most hardware security modules. In practical terms, it means smart contracts on TRON will be able to natively verify signatures generated by the security chips already sitting inside billions of phones and laptops. Without native support, developers have to implement P-256 verification in Solidity, which is expensive in terms of gas. A precompile handles this at the protocol level, making it fast and cheap.
Governance mechanics and the SR vote TRON’s governance model relies on its 27 Super Representatives, who are elected by TRX holders through a continuous staking-and-voting process. These SRs are responsible for producing blocks and voting on network parameter changes. The August 25 vote follows a well-established pattern: the core development team ships code, node operators upgrade, and then SRs formally activate new features through on-chain proposals.
This two-step process, upgrade first and vote second, is deliberate. It ensures that the network has sufficient node coverage running the new software before any parameter change flips the switch. If a significant number of nodes were still running the old version when new features activated, those nodes would reject the updated blocks and fork themselves off the main chain.
The August 16 deadline gives operators roughly nine days of buffer before the vote. GreatVoyage-v4.8.2 (Pyrrho) was released in July 2026.
The Ethereum alignment strategy The P-256 precompile is particularly telling. Ethereum introduced its own version through EIP-7212. By adopting the same capability, TRON positions itself to support the same class of account abstraction and hardware-backed authentication flows that Ethereum developers are building toward.
The CLZ opcode addition reinforces this same logic. It eliminates one more edge case where a contract that compiles and runs fine on Ethereum would fail or behave differently on TRON.
What to watch after the vote Native P-256 support opens the door to passkey-authenticated wallets on TRON, a feature that could reduce onboarding friction for non-crypto-native users. Several Ethereum projects are already exploring this design space, and TRON’s adoption of the same cryptographic standard means those designs could be ported over with minimal modification.
For node operators, the immediate priority is straightforward: update to version 4.8.2 before the deadline. The TRON development team has urged proactive action, and as of the latest reports, no disruptions have been flagged during the rollout period.

@Trondao is preparing to push through what it describes as its most significant protocol upgrade to date. The GreatVoyage-v4.8.2 (Pyrrho) release has already cleared the Nile Testnet and is heading toward a mainnet governance vote on August 25, when the network will weigh in on parameters #95 and #96 to formally activate the protocol.
What the Pyrrho Upgrade Changes The headline improvement is a deep overhaul of the TRON Virtual Machine (TVM).
That is where the August 25 vote comes in. Once Super Representatives approve the relevant proposals, the new execution capabilities go live across the network.
What Node Operators Need to Do All node operators must update to v4.8.2 or v4.8.2.1 by August 25 to remain synced with the network as $TRX and stablecoin volume continues to move at pace.
Failure to upgrade risks losing synchronization with the rest of the network once the new parameters are activated.

Following the launch of buyback-and-burn programs for BTT and WIN, JST completed its fourth major token burn, while SUN rolled out a comprehensive upgrade to its buyback mechanism.
With these initiatives now operational, TRON’s flagship assets have officially entered a deflationary era. This sends a clear message to the broader crypto market: TRON is anchoring its tokenomics in economic reality. By converting actual protocol revenue into real benefits for token holders, TRON is reinforcing its ecosystem flywheel and steering the entire ecosystem toward real value creation.
TRON’s Core Assets Enter Deflationary Era as Network-Wide Buybacks Go Live By taking protocol revenue to repurchase tokens on the open market and permanently remove them from circulation, TRON’s four flagship assets—JST, SUN, WIN, and BTT—are adopting a mechanism similar to traditional equity buybacks, with the potential to support long-term token value.
JST, an essential asset across TRON’s DeFi segment, has spearheaded the buyback wave. As of July 17, it has completed its fourth major buyback-and-burn round, removing a cumulative total of 1,711,249,863 JST from circulation, which accounts for 17.29% of its total supply.
Data shows that JST’s total buyback value across four rounds has surged past the $94.62 million mark, exhibiting explosive round-over-round growth. This surging capital scale vividly highlights a leap in JST’s underlying revenue generation, reinforcing TRON’s firm resolve toward a model of absolute deflation.
As JST sets the pace, SUN.io—another key pillar of TRON’s DeFi ecosystem—has completed a major upgrade to its buyback mechanism, unlocking greater on-chain transparency. SUN’s buyback mechanism now draws its funding from an expanded range of SUN.io’s product suite, including SunSwap V2, SunPump, and SunX.
Since the launch of its buyback initiative on December 15, 2021, SUN.io has executed 51 consecutive, uninterrupted burn rounds, permanently removing 678,547,188.32 SUN from circulation—making up 3.4% of the total supply. Furthermore, it launched a dedicated buyback-and-burn dashboard on April 22 this year, allowing global investors to witness firsthand how protocol revenue translates into sustainable value growth.
Building on this momentum, BitTorrent, the world’s premier decentralized network infrastructure provider, and WINkLink, the first decentralized oracle network on TRON, introduced their own buyback and burn programs in July.
To fund these initiatives, WINkLink will allocate 100% of its revenue to repurchasing WIN, while BitTorrent will utilize the entirety of the revenue generated from its decentralized business to buy back BTT. Both projects are slated to officially commence their burn phases in Q4 2026.
JST Leads the Charge as TRON’s Core Infrastructure Tokens Rally in Unison Among the four projects, JST stands out as the clear leader in the scale and volume of its buyback and burn program. JustLend DAO’s robust revenue base provides the foundational support, with its Energy rental operations accounting for 70% of the allocated funds. Concurrently, accrued stability fees from USDJ were tapped for the very first time to supply the remaining 30%, marking JST’s successful establishment of a diversified, multichannel value capture framework.
Catalyzed by strong deflationary expectations, JST is undergoing an explosive realignment with its intrinsic value on the secondary market. Since the inception of its buyback and burn, the token’s price has surged over 200%, breaching the $0.1 mark on July 10 to hit a recent historic high that sits 50% above its Q1 peak. Both the eye-watering Q2 trading volume of $3.27 billion and this significant price appreciation are directly underpinned by genuine revenue growth. Together, these metrics cement JST’s position as a premier growth and value asset, offering unparalleled certainty within the TRON DeFi ecosystem.
Building on JST’s momentum, SUN—the native token of SUN.io, another core DeFi engine on TRON—is exhibiting remarkable resilience in both price and trading volume, bolstered by continuous enhancements to its deflationary mechanics.
As of July 29, CoinGecko data indicates that SUN has maintained a steady upward trajectory over the past month, posting a solid 10% gain. Its impressive $640 million in Total Value Locked (TVL) and $440 million in 7-day trading volume demonstrate robust capital retention within the protocol. This steady price appreciation, underpinned by deep liquidity, further cements SUN’s position as the bedrock of the TRON ecosystem’s trading hub.
In parallel, with the official launch of their buyback and burn programs in July, WIN and BTT—dual engines of TRON’s infrastructure—have shown tangible value realization. Catalyzed by this mechanism, both assets have demonstrated strong price resilience. As of July 29, driven by the announcement of its “100% Real-Revenue Buyback & Burn” initiative, WIN has rallied approximately 22.5%. Meanwhile, BTT has also found a strong base of support amidst price fluctuations. Together, these two infrastructure pillars are working in lockstep with the broader DeFi ecosystem, driving sustainable, synergistic growth across the network.
Beyond Hype and Narrative: How TRON is Redefining Value Accrual Through Real Yield TRON has evolved far beyond a standard Layer 1 network into a highly cash-generative, on-chain financial engine. With active user accounts approaching the 400 million mark and Total Value Locked (TVL) comfortably exceeding $27.0 billion, the network now hosts over $90 billion in stablecoin supply, with its diverse business lines continuously generating protocol revenue every day.
Rather than letting these earnings sit idle, TRON is channeling its yield back into the ecosystem. Through comprehensive buyback and burn programs across JST, SUN, BTT, and WIN, TRON has built a self-sustaining value flywheel, routing network revenue straight back to its community and token holders.
Right now, TRON’s ecosystem flywheel is spinning at full tilt. These four flagship projects aren’t isolated bets in separate verticals—they interlock, each one reinforcing the others in a genuine, self-compounding business loop. And what keeps that loop turning is relentless, disciplined engineering at the protocol layer.
Q2 2026 brought a sweeping wave of upgrades across the board. JustLend DAO shipped its SBM V2 isolated pool and plugged directly into Binance Wallet. SUN.io slashed energy costs with a router contract overhaul. BitTorrent made its boldest move yet, launching BTTInferGrid to stake a claim in decentralized AI compute. WINkLink kept scaling its price feed coverage. Individually, these read as incremental UX refinements; collectively, they build the deep, frictionless infrastructure that TRON’s massive liquidity pools depend on.
This model creates a compounding flywheel effect: as circulating token supply tightens and persistent buyback demand accelerates, a self-reinforcing value loop takes shape—one designed to attract capital regardless of broader market sentiment. JST’s sustained burn program represents merely the opening act. Together with the revamped SUN buyback framework and the upcoming BTT and WIN repurchase schedules, TRON’s entire asset stack is now fully aligned around systematic supply deflation as a core growth strategy.

TRON (TRX), a major public blockchain platform focused on decentralized applications and digital payments, is displaying renewed momentum after recapturing significant technical support levels. With buyer confidence increasing, analysts point to TRON’s strong network growth and improved scalability as potential drivers for further gains.
Network performance reaches new milestoneRecent data from analytics provider Chainspect reported that the TRON network reached 439 transactions per second (TPS) averaged over 100 consecutive blocks. This milestone marks a 3.8% increase from the previous record set just a week prior, underlining TRON’s ongoing focus on expanding its throughput and efficiency. Achieving sustained TPS across several blocks demonstrates the blockchain’s growing capacity to process large volumes of on-chain transactions.
Mini dictionary: Chainspect, a blockchain analytics provider offering insights into transaction speeds and network statistics for various public blockchains.
TRON’s improved performance highlights its appeal for stablecoin transfers, payment solutions, and DeFi projects that rely on high throughput and low latency. Sustained network capacity is seen as a critical factor supporting future adoption and ecosystem growth.
Technical outlook and market dynamicsAt the time of writing, TRX trades at $0.3322, with a 24-hour trading volume of $352.84 million and a market capitalization standing at $31.53 billion. Market observers note that despite recent price stability, both TRX’s technical posture and network fundamentals suggest a possible bullish reversal.
Crypto analyst JNVCK CRYPTO identified renewed strength as TRON reclaimed its seven-day and 90-day volume-weighted average price (VWAP) levels. The asset is currently holding above a former resistance area, which now appears to serve as support—an indicator that buyers may be regaining momentum for a near-term upward move.
At present, TRON’s ability to maintain reclaimed volume-weighted average price levels, combined with network activity, is fostering optimism among traders and could set a foundation for further price appreciation if market conditions remain stable.
The analyst also emphasized the significant influence of Bitcoin’s market trajectory on TRX’s short-term moves. If Bitcoin avoids a steeper rejection and retains its current pattern, TRX could aim for a technical target at $0.3541, provided buyer sentiment remains robust.

A sustained move above the present resistance could pave the way for TRX to approach the $0.3541 level, while a rejection might result in renewed testing of support. Continued growth in network throughput and activity may further strengthen the token’s market position.
Although the technical and network outlook appears constructive, the broader trend in Bitcoin and overall sentiment in crypto markets will continue to play a pivotal role in determining the direction of TRON’s price. Crypto markets remain volatile and subject to rapid changes.
Higher throughput, functional network upgrades, and resilient support levels could support TRON’s market standing, but traders remain alert to the evolving influence of Bitcoin’s price dynamics and general market sentiment.
