Justin Sun Is Now Prime Minister of Liberland—What Does That Even Mean?

Tron founder Justin Sun is many things. You can now count prime minister among them. This week, the micronation of Liberland—a largely theoretical European state cooked up by right-wing libertarians in 2015—announced that it elected Sun to serve as its head of state. So what exactly does that mean in practical terms? It depends on who you ask. The average person might say “nothing at all,” given the fact that Liberland lays claim to 2.7 miles of disputed, uninhabited floodplain currently being...

The rapper’s move followed a series of tweets and light-hearted banter with American professional boxer and Sundog aficionado Ryan Garcia, who encouraged him to “bet on Sundog.” Ty Dolla $ign began showing interest on October 3, when the rapper tweeted, "What's up with all these memecoins th...

Solana’s Pump.Fun Has Launched Millions of Tokens—Fewer Than 100 Are Worth Much at All

Solana meme coin factory Pump.fun has failed to keep more than 100 tokens above the $1 million market cap milestone. This comes as the protocol starts to fall out of favor after its summer-time high. A total of 89 Pump.fun coins are currently above a market cap of $1 million, according to Pump.fun. This means just 0.0045% of the near 2 million tokens are sitting above $1 million. That said, over the past 24 hours, only 1.5% of tokens launched have “graduated” to Solana decentralized exchange Ra...

Tron Token TRX Slips as Meme Coin Traders Lose Interest in SunPump

Tron (TRX) has fallen out of the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, according to CoinGecko. This comes as meme coin traders appear to be losing interest in the network’s meme coin launchpad, SunPump. Following the launch of SunPump by Tron’s controversial founder Justin Sun, TRX climbed 24.8% to $0.168 as it broke into the top 10 cryptocurrencies. At this peak, SunPump was responsible for 7,531 tokens being created on Tron. But for the past two days, SunPump has seen fewer than 1,...

Pump.fun Retakes Lead Over Tron's SunPump as Justin Sun Pushes 'Celebrity Season'

Solana-based meme coin factory Pump.fun has retaken a key statistical lead over SunPump, nearly two weeks after the Tron token launchpad flipped Pump.fun in daily created coins. On August 21, SunPump created 1,658 more tokens than Pump.fun over a 24 hour period. But this token creation dominance was short-lived. On Wednesday, according to Dune data, SunPump created just 1,258 tokens, falling 83% from 7,531 tokens created just two weeks prior. This decline can also be seen in the Tron launchpad...

Tron Jumps Into Top 10 on Meme Coin Hype as Telegram-Linked TON Falls

Tron (TRX) has leapfrogged Toncoin (TON) to become the 10th biggest cryptocurrency by market cap, following the arrest of Telegram boss Pavel Durov and a spike in interest in meme coins on Tron. However, the race is tight: TRX's market cap currently stands at $14.31 billion; TON's is $14.23 billion. French authorities arrested Pavel Durov, the founder and CEO of encrypted messaging app Telegram, outside of Paris on Saturday.

Justin Sun’s USDD Stablecoin Loses Bitcoin Backing

The USDD stablecoin, issued by the TRON DAO Reserve, has lost its Bitcoin backing with the removal of 12,000 BTC from its formerly listed collateral address. Without the Bitcoin, worth around $726 million, USDD is now primarily backed by TRX, the native token of the Tron blockchain. The move—spotted on X on Tuesday—was made without any apparent official action by the TRON DAO. Responding to reports of the shift, Tron founder Justin Sun said on X (aka Twitter) that what's happening is “not myster...

SunPump Flips Pump.Fun in Daily Meme Coins as Traders Shift to Tron

At its peak, Pump.fun was being used to launch over 20,000 tokens a day, drawing over $2 million in revenue as a result. But these num...

SEC Amends Justin Sun Lawsuit to Cite His Extensive Travel in US

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has filed an amended complaint in its lawsuit against Tron founder Justin Sun, arguing that because he "traveled extensively" to the U.S., the case falls under the country's jurisdiction. In the complaint, the SEC notes that over three years from 2017 to 2019, Sun spent around 380 days in the U.S., undertaking business trips to New York City, Boston and San Francisco in 2019. The SEC also pointed to Sun's stays at a apartment in the U.S. rented b...

Looking for Digital Citizenship in Dominica? Justin Sun Says Huobi Has a Token for That

According to him, one can’t rule out that, for example, the U.S. government will not require anyone swapping crypto tokens to go through KYC checks, meaning that “if you want to develop a decentralized exchange like Uniswap, you also want KYC for all your on-chain users.” “In the future, we will probably have these kinds of licenses for decentralized exchanges," ad...

They argued that Tether is primarily used for trading on centralized exchanges, commanding 50% of the market compared to other stablecoin pairs.
