Tron (TRX) Whales Unleashed: 352% Activity Surge Fuels Price Prediction

• Tron has been actively expanding its ecosystem, driving investors’ interest, including a 62.46% increase in the circulating market cap to over $21.94 billion in Q4 2022.
• Growth has been fueled by Tron’s deflationary token strategy and robust network activity, including a 7.19% rise in daily transactions and a 4.61% increase in daily active addresses.

Tron’s native cryptocurrency, TRX, has been on investors’ radar recently as the altcoin registers a massive 352% surge in whale activity during the last 24 hours. As per the data from the blockchain analytics platform IntoTheBlock, the transaction volumes by large holders or whales on the TRON (TRX) cryptocurrency network have witnessed a sharp uptick. As a result, the total whale transaction volume has surged to $942.92 million.

However, the whale activity surrounding Tron has yet to translate into a TRX price appreciation. As of press time, the Tron (TRX) price is down 3.52%, currently trading at $0.2452 with daily trading volumes of just under $1 billion. After hitting a high of $0.43 in early December, TRX has witnessed a strong downward slide and is currently consolidating in the range of $0.20 and $0.25.

Tron (TRX) Ecosystem Continues to Expand

The Tron blockchain network is actively expanding its ecosystem, which could further drive increased investor interest in the cryptocurrency. As per the recent Q4 report from the Messari platform, the Tron blockchain has cemented its status as a stablecoin powerhouse while also developing strategic collaborations to enhance the overall growth of its ecosystem.

During the last quarter, the Tron network retained its performance across key metrics. Notably, Tron’s circulating market capitalization increased by approximately 62.46% quarter-over-quarter, reaching more than $21.94 billion. This marks the eighth consecutive quarter of growth for the cryptocurrency.

This impressive performance during the last quarter comes due to a combination of different factors. It includes a deflationary token strategy along with robust network activity. The reports noted that Tron’s circulating supply dropped by a total of 0.42 billion TRX, decreasing by 2.59% on an annual basis. This deflationary strategy has been key to the network’s growth.

In addition, the Tron network saw a roughly 7.19% quarter-over-quarter increase in daily transactions and a nearly 4.61% increase in daily active addresses. The network’s staking ratio also increased marginally to 50%, with Stake 2.0 adoption up 9.67% quarter-over-quarter.

Tron’s stablecoin activity remained a cornerstone of its ecosystem, with USDT accounting for 98.3% of the total stablecoin supply. The average daily USDT transfer volumes on the Tron network increased by 28.18% quarter-over-quarter, reaching $18.43 billion.
