Key Takeaways:
- TRX is the only top-20 crypto to rise this week, gaining 8% amid market losses.
- Tron Inc. filed to raise $1B through securities to fund its TRX treasury strategy.
- TRX and TON show strength due to lower exposure to U.S. economic factors.
While the broader crypto market struggles, Tron’s TRX token is showing remarkable resilience, posting an 8% gain in the past week. TRX is the only top-20 cryptocurrency to rise during a period where 19 of its peers have declined, flipping DOGE to claim ninth in market cap rankings. The rally comes on the heels of a significant strategic move by Tron Inc., the company now steering the token’s financial future.
Tron Inc. Files for $1 Billion SEC Shelf Registration
The key catalyst for TRX’s bullish divergence is Tron Inc.’s SEC filing on July 28, which allows the newly public company to issue up to $1 billion in various securities. This includes common and preferred stock, debt instruments, warrants, and more. The stated goal: raise capital to expand the coin token holdings.
Tron Inc., formed through a reverse merger with Nasdaq-listed SRM Entertainment, already holds over 365 million the coin tokens, making it the largest public holder of the asset. The filing clearly outlines its intent: “Our TRX token strategy generally involves issuing debt or equity securities… with the objective of using the proceeds to purchase TRX tokens.”
Macroeconomic Decoupling Boosts TRX Appeal
Beyond corporate action, TRX’s decoupling from U.S.-driven market pressures has drawn attention. While Bitcoin and Ethereum dropped due to weak U.S. job data and tariff concerns, TRX’s performance has remained strong, driven partly by its ties to China.

This pattern mirrors the behavior of Toncoin (TON), another non-U.S.-centric project tied more closely to Russia. Both the coin and TON have demonstrated resilience during U.S. macroeconomic shocks, reinforcing the potential of geographically diversified crypto assets.
TRX Stands Out in a Sea of Red
As investors look for shelter in a bearish market, TRX’s recent surge, backed by Tron Inc.’s $1 billion strategy and its macro decoupling, makes it a notable exception. Whether this momentum continues will depend on execution—but for now, TRX is the rare green light in a sea of red.
