TRON posted a 1.2% gain, making it the top performer among the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization (excluding stablecoins), which is $22.68 billion from March 27 to April 3, 2025.

While other big names like Bitcoin (-4.7%), Ethereum (-9.2%), and Solana (-15.3%) saw losses, TRON held firm. It now has a market cap of $22.8 billion and has outperformed its peers not just this week but also over the year so far—down only 6.6% year-to-date, while many others are down over 30–40%.

Justin Sun, founder of TRON, celebrated the news on X (formerly Twitter), calling attention to TRON’s strong performance.

One possible reason for this success is TRON’s continued use in DeFi applications and its major role in stablecoin transfers. The TRON network also has one of the highest daily user counts and transaction volumes, which helps keep it stable even during tough market conditions.

As of April 3, 2025, TRX was trading at approximately $0.2377, which is around 2% down in the last seven days. This price reflects a year-to-date decrease of 6.6%, a notably smaller decline compared to the steeper losses experienced by several of its counterparts.
