On June 16, TRX recorded a price spike of more than 3% after the Tron-SRM Entertainment announcement, and today, the digital asset recorded more consecutive green candles.

During yesterday’s announcement, the Financial Times speculated that the US President, Donald Trump’s son, Eric Trump, would be a part of this new project, but he shared a message on X, saying that the information was not accurate.

However, he made sure to express his admiration for Tron and Justin Sun, whom he called “a great friend and an icon in the crypto space.”

With or without Eric Trump on board, the “Tronstrategy” definitely shows great results.
