About TRON DAO
TRON DAO is a community-run DAO dedicated to accelerating Internet decentralization through blockchain technology and dApps.
Founded in September 2017 by Justin Sun, the TRON network has continued to deliver impressive results since the launch of MainNet in May 2018. July 2018 also marked the integration of BitTorrent, a pioneer in decentralized Web3 services, with over 100 million monthly active users. The TRON network has gained popularity in recent years. As of October 2024, it has over 265 million total user accounts on the blockchain, over 8.7 billion total transactions, and over $16 billion in total value locked (TVL), as reported on TRONSCAN .
Additionally, TRON hosts the largest circulating supply of USD Tether (USDT) stablecoin across the world, surpassing USDT on Ethereum since April 2021. The TRON network completed full decentralization in December 2021 and is now a managed DAO by the community. Most recently, in October 2022, TRON was designated as the national blockchain of the Commonwealth of Dominica, marking the first time that a major public blockchain has partnered with a sovereign country to develop its national blockchain infrastructure. In addition to government approval for the issuance of Dominica Coin (“DMC”), a blockchain-based fan token to help promote Dominica’s global fanfare, seven existing tokens based on TRON – TRX, BTT , NFT, JST, USDD, USDT, TUSD, have been granted statutory status as a digital currency and authorized medium of exchange in the country.
