TRON Doubles Down on TRX as Rising On-Chain Activity Supports Price Recovery

Source Newsbtc

Tron Inc.’s recent moves in the TRX market are drawing attention at a time when investors are searching for signals beyond short-term price swings. Over the past week, the NASDAQ-listed company has steadily increased its exposure to TRX, while on-chain data points to sustained network usage.

Concurrently, these developments have helped stabilize the token after weeks of weakness, even as broader market caution remains visible in trading volumes.

Tron Inc. Expands TRX Treasury Holdings

According to disclosures shared by Justin Sun, Tron Inc. has acquired an additional 179,408 TRX at an average price of $0.28. This purchase lifted the company’s total TRX treasury holdings to roughly 680.7 million tokens.

The acquisition follows similar buys earlier in the month, including purchases on February 7 and February 8 at comparable price levels.

The company has framed its accumulation strategy as part of a longer-term approach to building a Tron-based digital asset treasury. The designated on-chain wallet for these holdings is publicly trackable on Tronscan, allowing market participants to verify the transactions directly.

While the latest purchase is modest relative to total circulating supply, the pattern of repeated accumulation has become a key data point for traders watching corporate involvement in crypto assets.

TRX Price Reaction and Market Response

TRX prices rebounded modestly following confirmation of the latest acquisition and Justin Sun’s public endorsement of the strategy. The token was trading around $0.2785 at last check, up about 0.5% on the day.

Despite the recovery, performance over longer periods remains mixed, with TRX still down on both weekly and monthly timeframes.

Trading activity suggests a more cautious market response. Reported 24-hour trading volume fell by roughly 16% to about $532 million, indicating that while prices have stabilized, participation has not fully returned.

Analysts note that corporate accumulation often provides psychological support near purchase levels, but sustained upside typically requires broader demand.

On-Chain Activity Adds Context

Beyond treasury moves, Tron’s on-chain metrics continue to show steady usage. Transaction volumes, active addresses, and smart contract interactions remain elevated, supported by stablecoin transfers and decentralized application activity across the network.

Historically, rising on-chain engagement has coincided with more resilient TRX price behavior, even during periods of uneven market sentiment. However, on-chain strength does not operate in isolation, as regulatory developments, macroeconomic conditions, and broader crypto market trends continue to influence price action.
