Tron’s blockchain just added a USD1 stablecoin from World Liberty Financial Inc. That move put the spotlight back on TRX. And traders are paying attention to what comes next. Related Reading: Relentless Bitcoin Accumulation: Strategy Snaps Up 1,045 More BTC Significant Price Movement According to trading data, TRX climbed 6% on Tuesday. It broke above the $0.2875 level on the daily chart before hitting resistance at $0.2980. A clean break past that hurdle could send the token toward $0.3230, the 50% Fibonacci retracement level. Currently, TRX trades around $0.2920, sitting between support at $0.2808 and the 23.6% Fib mark of $0.2645. The first USD1 has officially been minted on TRON — a small step for USD1, a giant leap for stablecoins!https://t.co/KMLg8NcXw8 — H.E. Justin Sun ???? (@justinsuntron) June 11, 2025 High-Profile Stablecoin Launch Based on reports from World Liberty Financial Inc., the new USD1 stablecoin is now live on Tron. The issuer has ties to US President Donald Trump, and Justin Sun—Tron’s founder and the largest holder of the Trump Token meme coin—called the launch a “giant leap for stablecoins.” Sun also joined a White House dinner for top Trump Token holders. This link to big names has drawn fresh eyes to Tron’s ecosystem. On-Chain Growth Signals According to DeFiLlama, the total value locked on Tron reached over $5 billion. On June 6, the network saw 4.50 million returning user addresses. Those stats suggest people keep coming back to DeFi apps on Tron, but it’s worth watching whether those funds stay in place or chase higher yields on other chains. Bullish Bets in Derivatives Based on CoinGlass data, TRX derivatives open interest rose by 8.25% over the past 24 hours to $329 million. The weighted funding rate open interest rose to 0.0098%, indicative that bullish long positions are greater than shorts. Short liquidations in the past day were almost double that of longs, which settled a bearish bet wave. Technical analysis supports this positive perspective. The RSI on the daily chart is inching up to the overbought region, indicating heightened buying pressure. A recent MACD crossover drove histogram bars into positive territory, which means momentum has favored the buyers. Related Reading: Bitcoin To $1 Million?

A pullback there could drag altcoins lower, while a fresh rally could lift TRX even more. For now, the combination of a big-name stablecoin launch, rising TVL, swelling open interest and positive technical signals gives Tron fans reason to watch for a potential breakout.

Whales Exit With Losses Despite Past Gains The wallets who sold behind it had previously made profits on TRUMP, but this time they exited early incurring heavy losses. Wallet 3kjP9L sold 337,560 tokens for $3.80 million and ended up in a loss of $1.38 million. It is reported that this wallet had previously profited by $196,000 from the same token. 2 whales dumped 765,128 $TRUMP($8.58M) at a loss of $2.34M 5 hours ago! 3kjP9L made $196K on $TRUMP before, sold 337,560 $TRUMP($3.81M) 5 hours ago and lost $1.38M. 7X6Vun made $732K on $TRUMP before, sold 427,568 $TRUMP($4.77M) 5 hours ago and lost $961K! Not only did they… pic.twitter.com/J8Fq4N2ihB — Lookonchain (@lookonchain) May 4, 2025 A second wallet, 7X6Vun, offloaded 427,568 tokens simultaneously for $4.77 million, incurring a loss of $961k. That wallet previously pocketed a $732k gain during a different trading period. The two whales would have attempted to scale down exposure after observing feeble signals within the market but their timing proved to be expensive. TRUMP Price Struggles As Trading Volume Jumps When the whales sold their tokens, TRUMP trading volume skyrocketed by almost 80% to $15.3 million on platforms such as Binance and KuCoin. This type of volume surge typically indicates that there is panic or overreaction by both buyers and sellers. As of writing, TRUMP is priced at $11.18, down 27% in the last seven days. It’s anybody’s guess if it can recover or more investors will follow the whales and begin selling their assets. Token Earlier Spiked On Gala News The TRUMP token had been making waves after a recent special event announcement. United States President Donald Trump had, according to reports, offered gala invitations at his Washington Golf Club to the most prominent TRUMP token holders, generating buzz and pushing the price higher earlier during the week. Traders loaded up, eager to make a profit from the increasing buzz. But the latest sell-off raised questions over just how solid that momentum had been. If big investors are exiting on a hype high, that could mean the conviction isn’t as widespread as it appeared. Related Reading: Bitcoin To Infinity? Venture Capitalist Says Crypto’s Value Vs.
