Through this integration, institutions will be able to custody TRX, the native utility token of the TRON network, on Anchorage Digital's compliant platform. Future phases of integration are expected to introduce support for TRC-20 assets and staking of native TRX, allowing institutions to participate more comprehensively in the TRON ecosystem within a compliant framework, holding tokens issued by TRON and interacting with the network's validator infrastructure.
TRON is one of the most widely adopted blockchain networks globally, with over 370 million user accounts and an average daily transaction volume of 10.1 million. The network's circulating supply exceeds $85 billion in Tether (USDT), playing a significant role in the global stablecoin ecosystem and becoming a leading blockchain for stablecoin issuance and transfer.
As institutional participation in digital assets continues to expand in the U.S., obtaining compliant custody and trusted infrastructure has become increasingly important for institutions looking to engage with major blockchain ecosystems.
“TRON has become a key component of on-chain value flow, especially in the movement of global stablecoins,” said Nathan McCauley, co-founder and CEO of Anchorage Digital. “As institutional participation grows, accessing networks like TRON requires the same level of security, compliance, and operational rigor as other areas of the financial services industry. By bringing TRON onto Anchorage Digital's platform, we are expanding this foundation, providing institutions with a secure and compliant way to custody assets and participate in one of the most active ecosystems in digital assets.”
“Access to blockchain infrastructure for institutions is entering a new phase,” said TRON founder Justin Sun. “TRON is built to support high-throughput digital asset activities globally, including stablecoins and everyday payments. As institutions deepen their participation in blockchain networks, trusted infrastructure becomes crucial. Anchorage Digital provides a robust compliance foundation to help expand secure institutional access to the TRON ecosystem.”
As the digital asset ecosystem matures, institutions are increasingly looking to access blockchain networks that drive global on-chain activity in a secure and compliant manner. By supporting TRON, Anchorage Digital continues to expand the infrastructure available for institutional participants while connecting major crypto ecosystems with trusted financial infrastructure in the U.S.
