Tron leads on-chain perps as WoW volume jumps 176%
The blockchain bucks the trend of declining on-chain perpetual futures.
Tron’s daily perpetual futures trading volume has surpassed $1 billion for two days in a row, while overall trading activity on the network has nearly tripled from the previous week, according to DefiLlama.
Over the past seven days, volume has reached $5.7 billion, representing a 176% increase week-over-week. The surge in perps volume suggests growing trader interest in Tron and may signal that Tron-based DeFi and derivatives platforms are gaining traction.

The growth comes as on-chain perps trading slows across most blockchains amid market weakness, with Bitcoin stagnating at around $87,000. TRON (TRX) was trading at about $0.28, down nearly 2% in the last 24 hours, per CoinGecko.
