TRX-based decentralized stablecoin

A short while ago, Justin Sun took to his Twitter page to announce an approaching release of a decentralized stablecoin pegged to TRX and BTT. He asked the community for the best title for it.

Sun’s readers on Twitter offered various titles in response – from sarcastic ones to those that could indeed serve as a name for a Tron-based stablecoin. The word ‘scam’ got mentioned a lot.

Tron regains top 10 spot

Finally, the thing that many Tron investors have been looking forward to has happened – TRX is now back on the top ten spot on CoinMarketCap. The coin is also showing a 7-percent price rise.

Justin Sun promised to get TRX to the top-ten list back in summer 2019 and bring BTT back to the top fifty. Another target Sun set for the Tron team back then was to get TRX pairs added to Coinbase and Binance U.S.

Recently, it was reported that TRX is among the coins that are being considered by the American branch of Binance.
