The announcement positions TRX on a CFTC-regulated U.S. exchange and clearinghouse, widening regulated access as TRON highlights $89 billion in circulating USDT and more than $27 billion in TVL.
TRON DAO announced that TRX, the native utility token of the TRON network, has been spot listed on Bitnomial, a CFTC (U.S. derivatives regulator)-regulated U.S. exchange and clearinghouse. The move is aimed at giving U.S. market participants, including investors and institutions, another regulated venue to access TRX. TRON said the listing adds to the token’s availability across regulated market infrastructure as demand grows for compliant digital asset products. In comments included in the announcement, Founder of TRON Justin Sun said the Bitnomial listing supports broader market access, greater transparency and the continued maturation of the digital asset ecosystem. The release described TRX as supporting transactions, smart contract (self-executing blockchain code) execution, decentralized applications and network governance on the TRON blockchain. It also said TRON is a leading blockchain for stablecoin activity and digital asset settlement, hosting more than $89 billion in circulating USDT and over $27 billion in total value locked (TVL). Bitnomial, LLC, headquartered in Chicago, operates CFTC-regulated exchange (DCM), clearinghouse (DCO), and clearing brokerage (FCM) subsidiaries. TRON added that recent institutional developments for the network include TRX becoming available for custody through Anchorage Digital, which it described as the first federally chartered crypto bank in the United States, alongside expansion of tokenized real-world asset products with top-tier asset managers on the network. The announcement framed the listing as part of a broader push to make blockchain-based assets more accessible through established financial infrastructure. TRON DAO also said that, as of June 2026, the TRON blockchain had recorded over 385 million total user accounts, more than 14 billion total transactions, and over $27 billion in TVL, based on TRONSCAN.
