Justin Sun, the founder of TRON and advisor of WBTC, took center stage at Bitcoin Vegas 2025, which took place from May 27 to 29 in Las Vegas. TRON DAO, the community-governed decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), played a significant role as a top-tier sponsor and co-host of several key events during the conference.

The week kicked off with TRON DAO sponsoring the Code + Country's America 250 VIP Reception on May 27 at AYU Dayclub. This exclusive event brought together key political figures and leading voices in Bitcoin, AI, energy, and technology, providing a platform for high-impact networking. Over 800 guests attended, positioning TRON at the forefront of conversations shaping America's technological future.

On the first day of the conference, Justin Sun participated in a high-profile panel titled "Building The Future Financial Products of America" on the Nakamoto Stage. Joining Sun on the panel were Hunter Horsley, CEO of Bitwise Asset Management, and Mike Belshe, CEO of BitGo. The panel, hosted by Kevin Kelly, CEO of Kelly Intelligence, explored how blockchain technology and digital assets are reshaping traditional financial products for investors and institutions in the United States. Sun highlighted the growing trend of integrating blockchain with traditional finance, citing Kraken’s plan to offer tokenized versions of U.S. stocks and ETFs as a prime example of this inevitable shift.

On May 28, Sun delivered a keynote session titled "TRON as the Global Settlement Layer" at the ‘Whales & Insiders: BTCFi and New Yield Opportunities’ event hosted by MetaEra. This session brought together top minds in the industry to discuss frontier Bitcoin DeFi innovations. Following this, TRON DAO co-hosted Kraken's Oceanic Night Party, welcoming over 500 attendees, including key ecosystem collaborators and visionaries from across the crypto industry.

TRON DAO's presence at Bitcoin Vegas 2025 was further solidified when Sun joined Ross Ulbricht and his family at the table for Ulbricht's Welcome Back Luncheon, demonstrating support for the Bitcoin community.

TRON's prominent role at Bitcoin Vegas 2025 aligns with a period of remarkable growth for the network. Having recently surpassed the significant milestone of $77.7 billion in circulating supply of Tether (USDT), TRON has established itself as the leading blockchain for Tether globally. This achievement reinforces TRON's position as a dominant force in the broader blockchain and digital asset landscape.

TRON DAO is a community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet via blockchain technology and dApps. Founded in September 2017 by H.E. Justin Sun, the TRON blockchain has experienced significant growth since its MainNet launch in May 2018.
