Justin Sun, the founder of TRON, has set an ambitious revenue target of $4 billion for the network over the next year. Sun's optimistic forecast is rooted in TRON's current meme coin strategy, which he believes will significantly boost market growth.
Sun anticipates Tron will generate around $3 billion in revenue, with a portion allocated to ‘burning’ $1 billion, and the remaining $2 billion directed towards staking rewards and transaction fees. He expects this strategy will drive revenue up to $4 billion.
To support this growth, Sun has proposed reducing transaction fees and increasing the network’s energy limit. He argues that these changes will elevate daily transactions to over 20 million within three months and expand Tron’s market reach. Enhanced network energy will also encourage more TRX staking, potentially leading to free transfers and greater profitability.
Tron recently achieved a milestone by being listed on Dex Screener, a prominent decentralized exchange tracking platform. This integration, announced by Sun on social media, is expected to boost TRON’s visibility and user engagement.
Additionally, Tether has played a significant role by minting $1 billion worth of USDT on Tron’s blockchain to increase liquidity. In the past year, Tron has seen $19 billion of Tether’s $33 billion in USDT minted on its network.
Sun remains confident that meme tokens will drive Tron’s engagement and growth. He highlights the community-driven nature of meme coins as a key factor in their success. The recent launch of SunPump, a meme token platform on Tron, has already generated over $1.1 million in sales within its first 11 days.
