Sam Elfarra, spokesperson for Tron DAO, emphasized MetaMask’s role as a vital gateway to decentralized applications, while Angel Gonzalez-Capizzi, MetaMask’s director of business development, highlighted Tron’s strong presence in Asia.

Although Eric Trump denied direct involvement, he expressed admiration for Tron and Sun, who also attended a VIP dinner with President Trump earlier this year.

While the spike was short-lived, TRX has continued its upward trend in 2025, currently trading around $0.347 with 37% year-to-date growth.
