Sunswap Surpasses 16 Million Transactions, Powering TRON’s DeFi Growth
TRON’s DeFi ecosystem continues to expand as Sunswap, the network’s leading decentralized exchange, surpasses 16 million transactions since launch. Native integrations with BitgetWallet, TrustWallet and TronLink have driven user adoption, helping TRON maintain over 2.5 million active addresses. As the primary blockchain for Tether (USDT), TRON hosts more than $80 billion in USDT liquidity, underscoring its role in fast, low-cost stablecoin transfers.
Despite 2025’s market volatility, Sunswap’s weekly transaction count remains stable. Early data show a shift in trading patterns: in 2024, WTRX and USDT accounted for the bulk of activity, but newer tokens like LMTV, SUNDOG, JST and the Trump-tied TRUMP token are gaining share. This diversification points to a broader and more resilient TRON DeFi landscape.
On price charts, TRX trades near $0.3518, testing its 50-period moving average as resistance and 100-period SMA at $0.3520 as support. A sustained hold above these levels could trigger a retest of $0.37, while a break below $0.3390 risks deeper consolidation toward $0.32. Overall, network metrics and growing liquidity suggest a bullish outlook for TRON’s DeFi expansion.
Bullish
Sunswap’s milestone of 16 million transactions and stable weekly activity highlight robust user engagement and network effects on TRON. Native wallet integrations lower entry barriers, while over $80 billion in USDT liquidity cements TRON’s role as a high-throughput, low-fee stablecoin hub. Token listing diversification—from WTRX and USDT dominance in 2024 to rising volumes in LMTV, SUNDOG, JST and TRUMP—signals a maturing DeFi ecosystem with broader market appeal. Historically, DeX volume surges have correlated with positive price performance as traders allocate capital to active platforms. Coupled with TRX’s consolidation above key moving averages, this suggests both short-term bullish momentum and long-term growth potential for TRON’s DeFi sector.
