Tron Inc (TRON) CEO Endorses TRX Accumulation Amid Recent Outperformance

Tron Inc (NASDAQ:TRON) CEO Justin Sun urged continued TRON token (TRX) accumulation, as the native blockchain asset outperformed bitcoin amid broader market weakness. On February 2, 2026, the Nasdaq-listed firm purchased 175,507 TRX at an average of $0.28, adding over $49,000 to its holdings, bringing total TRX positions to 679.9 million tokens valued at $540 million. The company plans to expand its TRX stake to enhance long-term shareholder value. TRX recently pulled back from a peak near 45 cents in 2024 to 28 cents, but has been more resilient than bitcoin, down just 1.3% versus nearly 19% this year. Analysts see TRX as a potential defensive haven within the crypto space.
