Geneva, Switzerland, October 3, 2025 —  TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), proudly served as the Title Sponsor of TOKEN2049 Singapore, held on October 1-2, 2025. As Asia’s premier crypto event, TOKEN2049 brought together the global Web3 ecosystem for two days of networking, insights, and collaboration at the iconic Marina Bay Sands Singapore.

Expanding TRON DAO’s Community Footprint

TRON DAO kick started the week co-hosting an exclusive side event ‘Web3 Cyber Night By Cyber Charge’. More than 300 attendees visited TRON DAO’s networking lounge and hospitality zone, engaging directly with community members and learning about the ecosystem’s latest developments.


At the main TOKEN2049 conference, TRON DAO also hosted a dedicated networking lounge, serving as a central hub for conference attendees to connect while exploring the TRON ecosystem. The lounge also spotlighted Founder of TRON, Justin Sun’s historic journey aboard Blue Origin’s New Shepard spacecraft, where he became one of the youngest Chinese-born commercial astronauts and the first Forbes-cover crypto entrepreneur to reach space.

Showcasing Thought Leadership Across TOKEN2049 Stages

Day 2 opened with Sun taking part in a lighthearted panel on the TOKEN2049 BingX Labs Stage — “The Roast of Justin Sun” The Inaugural Crypto Roast with Actor and Comedian, T.J. Miller, moderated by Jarred Winn, Managing Partner at Winn Ventures.

Sun then followed to headline TOKEN2049’s OKX Main Stage, delivering a keynote that spotlighted TRON’s milestones and the launch of SunPerp, TRON’s first decentralized perpetual contract trading platform.

Meanwhile, Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson at TRON DAO, delivered a keynote at the TOKEN2049 TON Stage, offering a deep dive into TRON DAO’s recent ecosystem integrations and community-driven initiatives.

Building Community Beyond the Conference Floor

The week concluded with TRON’s official TOKEN2049 Afterparty co-hosted alongside HTX DAO, with MetaMask as a Diamond Sponsor, drawing over 2,500 attendees from across the blockchain industry. The evening brought together thought leaders from DeFi projects, media partners, investors and development communities for conversations that extended well beyond the conference floor.

From headlining the Main Stage to expanding its community footprint at side events and hosting an electric afterparty, TRON DAO’s strong presence at TOKEN2049 Singapore demonstrated its role as a catalyst for blockchain adoption. As Asia’s digital economy continues to grow, TRON DAO remains at the center of innovation, accessibility, and global community building.

Bitcoin briefly loses 2025 gains as crypto plunges over the weekend.Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline this weekend, briefly erasing its 2025 gains and dipping below its year-opening value of $93,507. The cryptocurrency fell to a low of $93,029 on Sunday, representing a 25% drop from its all-time high in October. Although it has rebounded slightly to around $94,209, the pressures on the market remain significant. The downturn occurred despite the reopening of the U.S. government on Thursday, which many had hoped would provide essential support for crypto markets. This year initially appeared promising for cryptocurrencies, particularly after the inauguration of President Donald Trump, who has established the most pro-crypto administration thus far. However, ongoing political tensions—including Trump's tariff strategies and the recent government shutdown, lasting a historic 43 days—have contributed to several rapid price pullbacks for Bitcoin throughout the year. Market dynamics are also being influenced by Bitcoin whales—investors holding large amounts of Bitcoin—who have been offloading portions of their assets, consequently stalling price rallies even as positive regulatory developments emerge. Despite these sell-offs, analysts from Glassnode argue that this behavior aligns with typical patterns seen among long-term investors during the concluding stages of bull markets, suggesting it is not indicative of a mass exodus. Notably, Bitcoin is not alone in its struggles, as Ethereum and Solana have also recorded declines of 7.95% and 28.3%, respectively, since the start of the year, while numerous altcoins have faced even steeper losses. Looking ahead, questions linger regarding the viability of the four-year cycle thesis, particularly given the increasing institutional support and regulatory frameworks now in place in the crypto landscape. Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, remains optimistic, suggesting a potential Bitcoin resurgence in 2026 driven by the “debasement trade” thesis and a broader trend toward increased adoption of stablecoins, tokenization, and decentralized finance. Hougan emphasized the soundness of the underlying fundamentals, pointing to a positive outlook for the sector in the longer term.
