TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), participated in Bitcoin Asia 2026 in Hong Kong, where TRON Founder Justin Sun joined two fireside discussions on Bitcoin’s evolution, institutional adoption and the changing structure of global digital finance.

On August 27, Sun joined Bonnie Chang, Founder and Host of Bonnie Blockchain, on the Nakamoto Stage for “The Globalization of Bitcoin Capital.” The discussion focused on Bitcoin’s growing role in global capital markets as access expands through investment products, corporate treasuries and institutional infrastructure.

Sun said Bitcoin has moved well beyond its early years as an experimental technology and now plays a more established role as a global monetary asset and store of value. He also said Bitcoin’s traditional four-year cycle could become less pronounced as institutional flows, derivatives, global liquidity and macroeconomic conditions play a greater role in shaping the market.

“TRON is highly related to daily stablecoin payments,” said Sun. “The network continues to grow, with more than $94 billion in USDT on TRON, driven by real-world usage and continued growth across the ecosystem.”

The conversation also examined the relationship between Bitcoin and stablecoins. Sun described Bitcoin and stablecoins as complementary, with Bitcoin serving as a store of value while stablecoins are used for payments and settlement. He pointed to sustained stablecoin activity on TRON as evidence that demand for digital dollars can remain strong regardless of broader crypto market conditions.

Sun also addressed longer-term technological shifts affecting blockchain networks, including quantum computing and AI. He highlighted TRON’s work on post-quantum signature technology on the Nile testnet and said the industry should begin preparing for future security risks as quantum computing advances. On AI, Sun said autonomous agents could eventually become active participants in the digital economy, creating demand for systems that allow AI agents to hold assets, make payments and interact directly with financial applications. He said blockchain’s transparent and verifiable infrastructure could become more relevant as AI systems gain greater economic autonomy.

Later that afternoon, Sun joined Sean Hagan of BMTV for a second fireside discussion at The Deep, Bitcoin Asia’s VIP stage, where he discussed how his views on Bitcoin have evolved, opportunities across digital assets and Bitcoin’s potential role in global finance.
