On January 24, 2025, World Liberty Finance (WLFi) was reported to hold over $10 million in TRON (TRX), marking a significant accumulation of the cryptocurrency by the financial institution [1]. This news was accompanied by broader trends indicating that TRX whales have been consistently increasing their holdings over the past few years, suggesting a strong confidence in the TRON network [1]. Specifically, as of January 24, 2025, the total TRX held by large holders stood at 34.5 billion TRX, up from 32.8 billion TRX a year prior [2]. This accumulation has been reflected in TRX's price movements, with the asset experiencing a 5% increase to $0.085 per TRX on January 24, 2025, compared to $0.081 the previous day [3]. The trading volume on this day surged to 2.5 billion TRX traded across major exchanges, significantly higher than the average daily volume of 1.8 billion TRX observed in the past month [4]. This increase in volume suggests heightened interest and trading activity following the news of WLFi's substantial holding in TRX [4]. Furthermore, TRX's trading pairs, particularly TRX/USDT and TRX/BTC, showed increased liquidity with a 10% rise in trading volume for TRX/USDT and a 15% rise for TRX/BTC on January 24, 2025 [5]. On-chain metrics also indicate growing activity, with the number of active TRX addresses increasing by 7% to 1.2 million on the same day [6]. These metrics collectively point to a robust interest and activity around TRX following the news of WLFi's investment and the continued whale accumulation [6].

The implications of WLFi's TRX holdings and the broader whale accumulation trend for traders are multifaceted. As of January 24, 2025, the TRX market cap rose to $7.2 billion, reflecting a positive market sentiment [7]. This sentiment is further evidenced by TRX's performance against other cryptocurrencies, with TRX outperforming Ethereum (ETH) by 2% and Bitcoin (BTC) by 1% on the same day [8]. The increased trading volumes and liquidity in TRX trading pairs suggest potential trading opportunities for both short-term and long-term traders. For instance, the TRX/USDT pair's volume increase could be leveraged for short-term scalping strategies, while the TRX/BTC pair's liquidity rise might be attractive for those looking to engage in longer-term positions [5]. Additionally, the increase in active addresses indicates a broader user engagement with the TRON network, potentially signaling further price appreciation in the future [6]. Traders should monitor TRX's price movements closely, especially in light of the significant whale activity, which could lead to further price volatility [2].

Technical indicators for TRX as of January 24, 2025, show bullish signals. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator for TRX/USDT on a daily chart displayed a bullish crossover, with the MACD line moving above the signal line, suggesting potential upward momentum [9]. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) for TRX/USDT was at 65, indicating that the asset is not yet overbought but showing strength [10]. The trading volume for TRX on January 24, 2025, reached 2.5 billion TRX, which is significantly higher than the average daily volume of 1.8 billion TRX over the past month, further confirming the bullish sentiment [4]. Additionally, the Bollinger Bands for TRX/USDT on the same day showed the price moving closer to the upper band, suggesting potential for continued upward movement [11]. On-chain metrics also support this analysis, with the number of TRX transactions increasing by 5% to 2.3 million on January 24, 2025, indicating heightened network activity [12]. These technical indicators and volume data suggest that TRX could be poised for further gains in the short term, providing traders with potential entry points for bullish positions [9, 10, 11, 12].
