TRON's native cryptocurrency, TRX, has maintained strong momentum over the last six months, keeping pace with Ethereum despite the broader altcoin season. In the past 12 months, TRX has seen a 41% increase, almost matching Ethereum's 42% rise. A significant portion of these gains occurred recently, with TRX recording its eighth consecutive week in the green.
This growth appears to be driven by more than just typical altcoin season demand, with signs pointing to strong institutional interest. A key factor supporting this long-term outlook is TRON's aggressive deflationary model. The network has a high token burn rate, which is directly linked to network utility. With a circulating supply of over 94 billion tokens, recent reports indicate that nearly half have already been burned, increasing the token's scarcity over time.
TRON's network growth further solidifies this trend. The network's Total Value Locked (TVL) has grown by over $2 billion since late June, indicating a strong long-term focus from investors. While its Decentralized Exchange (DEX) volume is modest compared to rivals like Ethereum, TRON's aggressive adoption of stablecoins has driven a surge in active addresses and network transactions. This increased utility and adoption, especially from stablecoins, confirms a rising demand for TRX.
