Tron Network has made an important pivot into the meme coin scene, and thus far, its performance has been good. According to data insights from crypto analytics firm Lookonchain, some traders are already making a lot of money trading Tron-based meme coins.
Tron meme coin growth push
Based on Tron Scan trades, some traders have made 100x gains trading these memes on the protocol. Trader “TEP7…T1da” spent 5,000 TRX worth $650 to buy 6.87 million SUNDOG earlier. After about seven hours, the trader sold 4.57 million of these tokens for 522,840TRX, a sum that is equivalent to $68,000.

Currently, the whale holds a total of 2.29 million SUNDOG worth approximately $76,000 in unrealized profit. This trade will likely usher massive meme coin farmers into the Tron network, potentially sparking a never-before-seen FOMO - Fear of Missing Out on the tokens.
L1 competition
For the longest time, Tron has remained on the sidelines, while protocols like Ethereum and Solana thrive. Things changed when Justin Sun decided to dabble in other niches beyond stablecoins and payments.

If sustained, the traction on the meme coin is comparable to that of Solana. While some of these assets are still gaining traction, investors are keen to see which Tron meme coin will cross the $10 million mark in the short term.
In the longer term, many hope they can catch the Shiba Inu and BONK equivalent on the Tron protocol.
