Tron (TRX) has recently made headlines by breaking its previous seven-year all-time high, signaling a significant momentum shift in the cryptocurrency market. TRX skyrocketed to an all-time high of $0.4485, driven by an impressive monthly stablecoin transfer volume that surpassed $500 billion. This remarkable development has caught significant attention in the cryptocurrency community.
In just 24 hours, TRX garnered interest as it surged over 20%, and each unit is currently trading at $0.3227. With this recent uptick, TRX has achieved a monthly increase of more than 100%, reflecting a renewed enthusiasm for the currency. Data from Lookonchain shows that on Tuesday, the protocol’s daily revenue reached a new peak of $21.6 million, demonstrating an impressive 98% increase.
Moreover, TRONSCAN, the block explorer for the TRON network, revealed that the total number of transactions went beyond 10.57 billion, with the count of total accounts rising to 276 million. If this trend continues, TRX might rebound and surpass $0.45. In a highly optimistic scenario, it could even be near $1, potentially rivaling XRP’s performance.
What Led to TRON’s Record Price?
The remarkable rise of TRON is occurring alongside a broader altcoin rally and follows a timely forecast by crypto analyst Javon Marks on X. Within less than 24 hours; Marks alerted his 46,000 followers to the cryptocurrency’s potential growth. His prediction noted that the USD price for $TRX (TRON) might still have room to soar, with an estimated 720% surge possibility, potentially reaching $1.11.
Another major factor contributing to this price increase is TRON’s leading position in the stablecoin market, especially in emerging economies. According to research from Messari Crypto, TRON’s monthly stablecoin transfer volume in November exceeded $500 billion, a significant year-over-year rise of $150 billion. This success positions TRON ahead of other major blockchains like Solana (SOL) and Base when it comes to stablecoin transactions. Furthermore, the USDT supply on TRON has risen by 25% year-to-date. Interestingly, TRON lost its two-year lead to Ethereum regarding USDT supply.
Additionally, just before TRX’s surge on Tuesday, Tron Network founder Justin Sun playfully suggested that TRX was on track to become the next XRP. His comparison followed XRP’s impressive 40% increase on December 2, when it peaked just below $2.80, enabling it to climb past the stablecoin Tether to become the third-largest digital asset.
Looking ahead, Justin Sun announced plans to adapt the asset’s strategy in light of anticipated regulatory changes in the U.S. He cited MicroStrategy, known for its significant Bitcoin investments, as a model for innovation and aligning business with cryptocurrency growth. Sun hinted at possibly adopting a similar approach for Tron, suggesting plans to maintain a Bitcoin reserve or develop TRX to attract institutional investors. His question about a “Micro” strategy for TRX implies that his team may take cues from MicroStrategy’s successful tactics.
