On June 25th, TRON officially celebrated its sixth anniversary. This marks six years of stable and secure operation for the TRON mainnet, which has evolved from achieving decentralization to becoming a DAO organization, and further to its commitment to building a metaverse financial free port. TRON has consistently pursued its goals and achieved many milestone accomplishments through continuous innovation.
Striving for innovation and continuous development, the TRON mainnet was officially launched six years ago, marking a significant step towards establishing its decentralized network. Today, TRON has become a crucial infrastructure driving global blockchain technology and crypto finance. In addition to cultivating a thriving ecosystem in mature industry sectors such as NFT, DeFi, GameFi, stablecoins, and cross-chain applications, TRON is also actively expanding into new areas like RWA and AI to jointly construct the “TRON metaverse.” Currently, TRON has over 239 million users, with over 7.9 billion transactions and a total value locked (TVL) exceeding $20.3 billion.
In the stablecoin sector, TRON has established a stablecoin ecosystem consisting of USDT, USDC, TUSD, USDJ, USDD, as well as offshore RMB stablecoins TCNH and CNHT. As the largest issuance network for USDT, TRON’s on-chain USDT issuance has surpassed 59.8 billion, covering numerous usage scenarios such as communication transfers, shopping payments, travel settlements, live streaming consumption, and fiat currency exchanges.
Behind the continuous prosperity of its ecosystem is TRON’s unwavering commitment to prioritizing user asset security. Its collaboration with Dubai’s top network security audit company, FearsOff, reflects TRON’s ultimate pursuit of network security. Additionally, the appointment of Hassan Sunny as TRON’s Chief Security Officer and official spokesperson signifies the beginning of a new era for blockchain security and asset protection.
Moreover, TRON’s Hackathon has successfully held six seasons, becoming a leading event in the industry. Through this event, TRON has gathered outstanding community developers and birthed numerous innovative projects, leading the industry and inspiring more creativity. Furthermore, TRON’s global blockchain expansion project, TRON Builder Tour, has established connections with renowned cities worldwide.
Beyond its pursuit of stable development for its public chain and ecosystem, TRON continues to innovate and embrace a more extensive decentralized world. In July 2023, TRON’s ecosystem saw the birth of its first RWA project, stUSDT, hailed as the “Yu’ebao” of the Web3 world, serving as a bridge between traditional markets and the blockchain ecosystem. In February 2022, TRON launched a Bitcoin Layer 2 solution and roadmap, injecting financial vitality into Bitcoin and demonstrating its leadership as a top public chain in the industry.
On the path to building a metaverse financial free port, TRON has also established close relationships and collaborations with many mainstream companies, including Google, Huawei, and Amazon. Notably, Google Cloud became a candidate for TRON’s super representative in May 2021. TRON is driving the mass application of blockchain technology.
On April 16th, TRON released its theme song “Genesis Song: TRON New Era,” co-created with Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer, exuding a force of struggle and positive exploration, which embodies the core strength of TRON.
TRON founder Justin Sun stated in a recent interview, “Web3 is a new way of collaboration and coexistence. We look forward to building a more open, inclusive, and decentralized digital world.” Like every past Independence Day, the sixth anniversary of TRON’s independence day will mark a new starting point, where we will spare no effort to build a metaverse financial free port, promote the wider adoption of blockchain and cryptocurrency, and explore the vastness of the future together with TRON.
