TRX Outperforms BTC and ETH: Research Highlights USDT Dominance, Deflation, and 20%+ Staking APY on TRON
According to @justinsuntron, TRX is one of the most compelling allocations among top‑10 cryptocurrencies based on a research note he cited from CryptoBraveHQ. According to @justinsuntron, TRX gained +132.34% over the past year, outperforming BTC at +58.27% and SOL at +2.58%, while ETH declined by -37.15%. According to @justinsuntron, TRON hosts about $75.7B of USDT in circulation (around 50.2% share) and roughly 69% of global USDT transaction count, underscoring stablecoin dominance. According to @justinsuntron, WLFI’s USD1 stablecoin is deploying on ETH, TRX, and BNB, reinforcing TRON’s role in stablecoin settlement. According to @justinsuntron, TRX also shows stronger bear‑to‑bull resilience, higher new‑cycle highs versus prior peaks, smaller pullbacks this cycle, a deflationary supply while BTC, ETH, and SOL are inflationary, and combined energy, node staking, and governance rewards offering APY above 20%.

Global Regulators Target xAI's Grok for Generative AI Misuse: Regulatory Risk Watch for AI Crypto Plays
