TRON is accelerating, and this time, it's not just about technology, but the awakening of ambitions towards Wall Street @justinsuntron.
Recently, community members have felt that the TRON ecosystem has "suddenly become busy," and that's not an illusion. There aren't many opportunities left to get on board!
From mainnet upgrades and EVM compatibility to significant capital acquisitions—Sun's established public chain is rebooting its growth engine in an unprecedented manner. Behind these appearances lies a more significant strategic shift:
👉 TRON is using capital strength and technological stability to pave the way from "on-chain traffic → financial assets → global stage."
Let's break down how this acceleration is taking place:
🔧 Technical Aspect: TRON mainnet 4.8.0 upgrade aligns with Ethereum's Cancun, entering a new phase that balances efficiency and security.
On June 23, the TRON mainnet will initiate a critical upgrade proposal vote (GreatVoyage v4.8.0 - Kant version). This is not just a simple bug fix; it directly targets the core of Ethereum's latest upgrade "Cancun":
✅ Supports important new instructions like EIP-1153/4844/5656/7516: such as TLOAD, TSTORE, MCOPY, BLOBBASEFEE, which can significantly optimize contract execution efficiency and save transaction energy costs.
✅ Officially compatible with EVM Cancun upgrade: Developers can migrate code with one click, easily deploy on TRON, essentially equipping TRON with an "Ethereum chip," opening a vast ecological gateway.
✅ Significant enhancement in consensus layer security: Strengthening block production verification, account creation restrictions, and transaction volume control to prevent malicious behavior, ensuring the stability and consistency of on-chain transactions.
In simple terms:
｜This upgrade represents a collective leap for TRON towards "technological generalization + network efficiency."
Developers gain a lower-cost, smoother environment; users enjoy faster, more stable, and cheaper transfers and interactions.
💰 Capital Aspect: TRX reverse listing, creating the ambition path of a "crypto version of BlackRock."
Meanwhile, another shift in the capital dimension is unfolding:
🔔 TRON is about to achieve a reverse listing through the acquisition of the Nasdaq-listed company SRM Entertainment, realizing "holding company + TRX assets."
➣ The operation is similar to the MicroStrategy model, packaging TRX reserves into financial assets to enter the US stock market.
➣ Establishing a holding company "Tron Inc.," with an expected total market value of about $210 million.
➣ Partnering with Dominari Securities to build a compliant pipeline for the US securities market.
Behind this is a substantial attempt to "move out of crypto inwardness → connect with Wall Street capital."
📌 This is fundamentally different from a traditional IPO:
It's not about issuing tokens for financing, but rather using asset injection + holding conversion to bypass SEC regulations on new securities registration—reasonable and compliant, yet ambitious.
🌐 The synergistic effect behind technology + capital: What kind of closed loop is TRON building?
What we see are not isolated events, but a complete top-level design of on-chain economy penetrating into off-chain value:
In short:
｜⚡️ Technology quickly catches up with Ethereum, capital rapidly advances into Wall Street.
TRON is evolving from a "technical network on-chain" to an "off-chain financial system that can be realized."
Whether you are a TRX holder, DApp developer, Web3 observer, or community participant, you are now in the "front row" of this turning point.
📱 If you are a user: The mainnet is faster, more stable, and more economical; the on-chain experience is visibly optimizing.
🧱 If you are a developer: Ethereum ecosystem veterans can directly migrate over, saving time and money.
📊 If you are an investor: Wall Street's interest in TRX means future valuations and liquidity will have more imaginative space.
🧠 If you are a thinker: This is a rare case of "flying out of the crypto circle from on-chain," worthy of in-depth study and learning.
This time, TRON is not chasing anyone; it is seizing the opportunity of "combining chain and capital."
The mainnet upgrade lays the foundation, and TRX listing builds the pinnacle; together they form a triangular explosive structure of capital strength × technological strength × community momentum.
The coming weeks will be a critical window:
🗳 June 23: Mainnet 4.8.0 upgrade proposal voting begins.
🏛 July: Tron Inc. is expected to complete the listing process.
💥 Within the year: Supporting development incentives and compliant investment mechanisms are expected to be rolled out successively.
Are you ready?
This is no longer a slow-moving old public chain, but a capital dragon that is accelerating and leaping.
It's time to reassess TRON's position in your investment landscape, development roadmap, and industry vision. Sister Mao reminds you to pay close attention!

I'm not very familiar with Forks because they are technical, so I ask the experts for their opinions to know how to handle it.
✅ Solana has hardly had any notable blockchain Forks until Gorbagana $GOR, which combines meme elements with tech elements.
❌ At this point, if a tech project is launched, it would be very hard to generate FOMO, but I don't know if it was random or intentional that the Founder of Solana shilled a project that has all the elements to attract FOMO.
✅ Forks from ETH include:
Ethereum Classic (ETC): Hard fork in 2016 after the DAO hack.
• Binance Smart Chain (BSC): EVM compatible, low fees, 2020.
• Polygon (MATIC): Layer-2, EVM compatible.
• Fantom (FTM): EVM compatible, high speed, 2019.
• Tron (TRX): Initial fork, switched to DPoS.
• Avalanche (AVAX): EVM compatible, subnets, 2020.
• Cronos (CRO): EVM compatible, DeFi, 2021.
• Arbitrum & Optimism: Layer-2, Optimistic Rollups.
If it really has potential, I will hold a large target, for example, $1B Mcap.
Entry 10M.

Bloomberg has raised the approval rate of most crypto spot ETFs to 90% in 2025, which means that almost all applied spot ETFs have a high probability of passing, except for Sui and TRX, because of time.

The value of this statement is still rising... I can only say that Tron is definitely a great safe haven this month 😂

If it weren't for the $TRX and $JST, it wouldn't have fallen, otherwise it might have really been lost.

TRON (TRX) is a blockchain platform founded by crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun in 2014. It is focused on changing the landscape of the media and content creation industry. TRON helps media and content creators retain ownership of their work while being rewarded directly by consumers. With TRON, creators do not need to sell their work rights to big corporations to reach a large audience.
The TRON blockchain does not charge any fees for using the network. Despite the lack of gas fees, the network still supports as many as 2000 transactions per second. The blockchain is maintained through a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism. In TRON's case, 27 Super Representatives are nominated to validate transactions and secure the blockchain. To reduce the possibility of such a small number of people conspiring to take down the blockchain, the Super Representatives are changed every six hours.
The TRX token is the native token of the TRON blockchain and is used to reward media and content creators. Although created as an Ethereum-based ERC-20 token, it is now a purely TRON-based token built according to TRON's TRC-20 token standard. Consumers use TRX to reward media and content creators on the TRON blockchain for their work.
Since moving TRX from Ethereum and the ERC-20 token standard to TRON's TRC-20 token standard, new wallets have had to be created for storing TRX tokens and interacting with the broader TRON ecosystem. While the TRON Foundation hasn't released any wallets, several TRX-compatible wallets, such as Tronlink and imToken have been developed by members of the TRON community and third-party organizations.
TRX price and tokenomics
TRX is designed to have a maximum supply of slightly more than 100 billion TRX tokens. Currently, 71.6 billion TRX tokens are in circulation, with a little over 28.4 billion TRX tokens set to be released in the coming years, giving TRX an estimated market capitalization of $5.75 billion.
In its initial coin offering (ICO), 40 billion TRX tokens were allocated to investors, 15.75 billion were channeled to private sale buyers, ten bullion to the TRON Foundation, and the remaining 35 billion were distributed to the Peiwo app.
The TRON network burns coins to deflate the currency and rewards its users. However, the maximum limit TRX is not fixed and could be subject to change in the future. The Super Representatives validate transactions and add blocks of transactions to the TRON blockchain. For each new block added, the validator who added the block is rewarded with 32 TRX tokens.
Ultimately TRX is a deflationary token since its supply is capped. All the remaining TRON tokens are distributed as mining rewards to the representatives securing the blockchain by validating transactions.
About the founders
TRON was founded by Justin Sun, a Chinese entrepreneur in the crypto space with a business executive background. Before founding TRON, Justin Sun had worked in the crypto space as a representative of the crypto payments and remittance infrastructure provider Ripple.
TRON was initially known as Tronix and rebranded to TRON in 2017 when the platform became a blockchain, and the TRON foundation was created to oversee the project. TRON started as an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum network. However, after alleged spats with Vitalik Buterin, Ethereum's founder, the ERC-20 TRON token migrated to its own blockchain after the mainnet launch in 2018.
The TRON Foundation was dissolved in 2021, and the project is now run and maintained by members of the TRON community. Sun continues as the official ambassador of the project. Before starting with cryptocurrencies, Sun founded Peiwo in 2013, one of the biggest voice apps in China. The app is a mixture of Snapchat and a matchmaking site. It's currently functioning on the TRON network.
TRX developments
Over the years, TRON has been involved in various partnerships. In September 2022, Tron announced a partnership with crypto market maker Wintermute to boost the availability of TRX and other tokens on the TRON blockchain.
The partnership will see Wintermute become a member of TRON's decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), contribute to decisions on the platform's future, and acquire TRON's stablecoin USDD directly from the blockchain.
In exchange, Wintermute will provide liquidity for TRX and other TRON tokens on decentralized finance (DeFi) services like Uniswap, making accessing these tokens and the TRON ecosystem easier.
In September 2022, Tron launched the third season of its 2022 Grand Hackathon, with $1.2 million in prizes up for grabs. The contest is open to all developers and features challenges along six tracks, including DeFi, GameFi, and non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
