Tron's DeFi Dominance Slipping? This Dual-Chain Token Gains Institutional Backing

In recent months, Tron (TRX) has witnessed a significant decline in its total value locked (TVL), dropping from a peak of $13.88 billion to the current $5.11 billion. Despite this decrease, the Tron network has continued to grow, with active addresses surpassing 125 million. However, TRX's large market cap limits its explosive price growth potential, shifting investor attention towards the first-ever dual-chain platform, DTX Exchange (DTX).

DTX Exchange recently concluded its 8th presale round, raising over $13 million. Due to overwhelming demand, it has entered the bonus round, amassing $15 million to date. The presale has attracted over 700,000 investors, with experts projecting it to be the best investment opportunity of 2025.

Analysts attribute this volatility to TRX's high valuation, and the future direction of the token will depend on a range breakout from the current consolidation.

TRX has achieved remarkable success with its stablecoin, USDT. The expansion of USDT on TRON has been driven by the blockchain's low transaction fees and fast settlement times. By early 2025, Tether's circulating supply had surged more than ninefold in just a year, jumping from $6.7 billion in 2021 to $62 billion. This growth reinforces TRON's dominance in the stablecoin market.

Justin Sun, the founder of TRON, recently urged users to adopt the platform, hinting at potential network improvements or incentives. His endorsement could drive more activity on TRON, making it essential for traders to monitor further updates and market reactions.

DTX Exchange (DTX) is revolutionizing the online trading industry by bridging the gap between decentralized finance and conventional finance. As a hybrid trading platform, DTX combines traditional assets like stocks, forex, and gold with digital assets like crypto
