Tron Stays Afloat Amid a Drop in the Crypto Market as Founder Hints on USDD Project

The global crypto industry has recorded a drop in value with Tron remaining immune to the crisis. Tron’s founder also revealed and gave hints on a new project due for May 2021.

The impact of the fall in the global crypto market was felt among top-ranking tokens in the crypto industry. These other tokens witnessed trading with cuts while there was a sudden drop in market value to $1.98 trillion. However, TRX recorded a massive growth of a 10 percent increase amid the drop in value. This is a huge win for the company because it places it in a position higher than it used to be.

Tron’s founder further hammered on the network’s plan for a distributed stable coin fashioned algorithmically. This project appears to be the next big thing and a milestone for the network. The moves taken to achieve their goal may be the leading cause for their significant market capitalization gain over the last 24 hours.

Reactions to Tron’s Rapid Climb to the Top

There have been some responses to Tron’s revelation. Terra’s founder has taken to his Twitter page to congratulate Justin Sun and Tron in general ahead of the release date. In his opinion, “decentralized economies” should have “decentralized money”. The congratulatory message from Terra stands out among popular opinions about Tron’s project being a copied work of UST.

The network was established over four years ago to improve internet decentralization. One of its strategies includes using blockchain technology and decentralization apps to achieve its purpose. According to CoinGecko’s estimate, the cryptocurrency TRX now ranks number 24 among the biggest crypto tokens in the market.

Understanding Tron’s USDD Project

The founder of the Tron network tells the general public about the future project the company is currently working on. The project is centered around creating a stablecoin with a decentralized algorithm. According to the founder, the network plans to gather its resources to achieve this goal. He also implied that the USDD would have the following features;

  • It will act as a decentralized stablecoin
  • The USDD will be pegged to TRX
  • It will provide custody service for the $10 billion worth of highly liquid assets raised from blockchain industry initiators
  • The USDD will further use the assets as an early-stage reserve
  • Through the BTTC cross-chain protocol, the USDD will be made available on the BNB chain as well as Ethereum.

The project is still a work in progress but is set to be officially launched in early May 2022. It will also be fully operational and issued for distribution on Tron.

Conclusion

CoinGecko’s analysis validates the fact that Tron has managed to stay above losses when many popular coins have received a blow from the market’s volatile nature. Its ongoing decentralized stablecoin project also holds a promising future and has received approval. It is no wonder that Tron has climbed up the ladder to a significant 24th position on the market’s chart.
