The number of TRON users exceeded 320 million, continuing to lead the public chain track According to the latest data on the chain, the number of TRON users worldwide has exceeded 320 million, and this public chain has once again proved its resilience and vitality with data. In the past year, the growth momentum of TRON users has accelerated significantly, from 200 million to 300 million ++ in just over a year, and this is not simply based on short-term hot spots, but is really based on high-frequency rigid needs such as transfer stablecoins and cross-border payments. At the heart of user growth: stablecoin home advantage When it comes to TRON, the stablecoin track is an unavoidable keyword. TRC-20 USDT has long accounted for more than 50% of the global circulation, and a large number of cross-border transfers and payment needs have naturally brought a continuous inflow of new users to TRON. And with the gradual solidification of user habits, this moat has also been further consolidated. Looking at user data, TRON's growth rate remains solid and has maintained a leading position in the past few quarters. Whether it's the influx of new users or the activity of old users, TRON's fundamentals continue to expand. Continuously optimize fees As the number of users continues to expand, TRON is also continuing to optimize the experience, trying to stabilize old users and attract more new users in the fierce competition of public chains. Recently, many people have reported that TRON fees have risen, but the essence behind this is that the price of TRX has been rising steadily, resulting in a rise in the price of energy leasing and handling fees. In this regard, the official has already begun to act. Brother Sun said a few days ago that JustLend has lowered the unit price of energy leasing by 30%, and lower-cost energy access channels are being rolled out. Behind this, it is obvious that the purpose is to continue to lower the transfer threshold and further stabilize TRON's leading position in the field of stablecoin payments. The phased results have been stabilized, and there is confidence in the future cracking From 0 to now, TRON has proven itself with time and data. Today, TRON not only has a solid user base, but also continues to expand more application scenarios, from stablecoin payments to DeFi, RWA, cross-border finance and other directions. With this report card laid down in the early stage, the further expansion and fission of TRON on a global scale will undoubtedly be smoother. Real growth has just begun. @justinsuntron @trondaoCN #TRONEcoStar

My thoughts on the Pumpfun vs Bonk launchpad debate, and why I think that Pumpfun will ultimately win: I know just reading that title many of you will be turned off by this, but try to keep an open mind when reading this. A brief introduction: The memecoin launchpad sector on Solana is currently witnessing a realignment of market share, with Bonk emerging as the dominant player, as of now capturing over 60% of recent coin launch volume in the past week according to dune. This has led many on crypto twitter to prematurely assert that Bonk will become the de facto standard for memecoin launches. However, such conclusions in my opinion conflate short-term momentum with structural weakness. I guess I will share a more contrarian thesis that not many on CT share: that is that Pumpfun, despite its present market contraction, remains the more durable and systemically advantaged launchpad over the medium to long term. The argument rests on two foundational pillars. First, Pumpfun’s position as the original launchpad to successfully scale memecoin deployment at velocity confers it a meaningful first-mover advantage, both in terms of network effects and cultural embeddedness. It withstood prior competitive threats such as Sunpump and many other KOL/Heavily Funded VC backed challengers and retains a loyal base of power users and traders. Secondly, Bonks current dominance is tightly coupled to a fleeting meta, and speculative confidence drawn from the perceived stability of the Bonk KOL ecosystem. This structure is inherently brittle; in my opinion the news/tweet meta and Bonk KOL stickiness/pull is part of a historically cyclical meta rotation that traders who have been long enough have seen all come and go. SunPump vs Pumpfun - Mid 2024 In assessing the long-term viability of any protocol, survivability through paradigm shocks offers a more reliable indicator than temporary market share. The brief yet intense episode involving SunPump a hyper-aggressive, copycat launchpad introduced by Justin Sun in around mid 2024 serves as a compelling stress test of Pumpfun’s "stickiness". Despite SunPump’s momentary success in capturing significant market attention, Pumpfun ultimately emerged from the challenge not only intact but further entrenched. SunPump’s rise was rapid. It leveraged Justin Sun’s network and his own "pull" as a KOL, and an injection of capital from DWF Labs and market making on their "hero coins" such as WUKONG etc, the platform briefly surpassed Pumpfun in daily token launches and volume. At its peak, SunPump launched over 62,000 tokens within its first two weeks, for a short time it outpaced Pumpfun’s typical throughput. This was not merely a temporary "just another launchpad" SunPump posed a credible existential threat, drawing away users, liquidity, and attention from what had previously been the undisputed leader as THE memecoin launchpad. Yet, by late 2024, Pumpfun had reclaimed its position as the dominant launchpad, both by volume and by revenue. The reasons for this reversal are instructive. First, Pumpfun’s user base, while initially reactive to novelty, ultimately reverted to a familiar, time-tested UI/infra. This suggests a degree of platform loyalty rooted not in hype driven by Xs on competing launchpads, but in UX fluency, and reliability. Second, the ephemeral nature of SunPump’s success exposed its foundational weakness: its growth was entirely dependent on external capital and KOL involvement, lacking the organic traction and community stickiness that Pumpfun had cultivated over months. The SunPump episode thus stands as more than a historical footnote it is pumpkins resilience moment. While many platforms can dominate during bull meta surges, far fewer can reassert themselves once the speculative tide recedes. Pumpfun did exactly that, absorbing the shock of a highly capitalized, KOL-driven competitor, and emerging with its brand, infrastructure, and user network not only intact, but expanded. Meta Stickiness and waning KOL influence Tweet‑Meta Launches & The Life Cycle of KOLs Both Pumpfun and Bonk operate currently within a meta where launch volume and token creation count is all surrounding the tweet meta. This tweet meta (one I personally find disgusting and boring) actually started on pumpfun and then with bonks surge the two began pvping on launches between bonk and pump coins with same base tweet, ending up today with total bonk dominance in this meta. But how did Bonk achieve dominance in this meta? This was by their what I refer to as "ecoKOLS" ecosystem KOLs that is. For example Solport Tom and Bonkguy, both of which tweet with the knowledge that each single tweet that they put out will be tokenised (I like the both of them and this is not a critique of them but mores of the traders) Nonetheless, they will tweet XYZ and XYZ coin will be launched on bonk, traders can accept and hold through multi wallet clusters selling because these ecoKOLs sometimes will reengage with the coin or project later. This aspect in the tweet meta is non-existent in pumpfun. So it makes sense for tweet coins from Tom, or Unipcs to be bidded, and this translates to other coins within this meta. Eg. a tier 1 influencer such as Elon musk tweets or breaking news will be deployed on bonk just because of the fact that the OTHER tweet coins from bonkguy and tom etc perform well. So for devs it makes more sense to deploy on bonk. But this meta is transient in my opinion and people will get bored of it through how optimised it has become. Also another important point to consider is that all KOLs pull wanes to a certain extent. So betting on Bonk as of now as the launchpad successor relies on you believing the following: 1. Bonk can exist outside of the Tweet Meta and foundation backed coins 2. EcoKOLs don't lose their pull Both of which seem hard for me to believe.. Problems with the Token Bonk ties itself to the existing $BONK token, which has strong brand value and benefits from buybacks and burns. But this model has a structural limitation: if Bonkfun wants to raise serious capital for expansion team, infrastructure, incentives it only has only one option. That is to sell BONK from its treasury (which puts selling pressure on the very token it’s trying to support negating any "flywheel effect") That means Bonk’s so-called “flywheel” is mostly cosmetic. It’s dependent on maintaining optics and momentum but lacks the financial flexibility to scale without hurting its own token or diluting its value proposition. Conclusion While current sentiment overwhelmingly favors Bonk, a deeper examination reveals that its dominance is rooted in transient meta conditions. These forces, while powerful in the short term, are inherently unstable. They depend on the continued attention of a migratory KOL class. By contrast, Pumpfun has demonstrated resilience across multiple market regimes including the high profile SunPump challenge and has retained core traction without relying on external narratives or ecosystem subsidies. In memecoins, as in markets more broadly, narratives may drive volume, but only structure sustains ecosystems. Pumpfun is built for the long game.

The amazing thing about TRX is not just its stealthy rise but also that it can withstand drops better than BTC. From BTC's lowest point of 16,000 this round to now, ETH has underperformed BTC by three times, while TRX is nearly flat with BTC. Moreover, TRX can be staked as sTRX, and the returns on TRON are very high. Calculating with an average annualized return of 10-15%, TRX should be the most friendly to holders among the top 10 mainstream tokens. @justinsuntron #TRONEcoStar
