Geneva, Switzerland — July 27, 2026 — TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), said it has launched the futures listing of TRX, the native utility token of the TRON network, on Bitnomial, a CFTC-regulated U.S. exchange and clearinghouse.

The new listing creates a regulated derivatives market for TRX and gives eligible U.S. traders and institutions another way to manage exposure through exchange-traded futures. TRON DAO said the move marks further progress in the development of regulated financial products tied to the TRON ecosystem, adding another venue for market participants who already interact with the token through the network itself.

TRX is used across the TRON blockchain for transaction fees, smart contract execution, decentralized applications, and on-chain governance. TRON has also become a major platform for stablecoin settlement, with more than $90 billion in circulating USDT and over $26 billion in total value locked (TVL), while processing billions of transactions across its global user base.

“The launch of the TRX futures contract on Bitnomial expands the ways market participants can access and manage exposure to the TRON ecosystem through a regulated U.S. venue,” said Justin Sun, Founder of TRON. “As digital assets become more integrated into traditional financial markets, regulated products like TRX futures help provide market participants with additional tools to access and manage exposure to blockchain-based assets.”

“TRX is one of the largest digital assets by market capitalization, backed by one of the most established networks in crypto, and now has a regulated US futures market to match, live today on Bitnomial Exchange,” said Michael Dunn, President of Bitnomial Exchange. “Institutions and traders can hedge and express views on TRX with portfolio margining across positions and settlement through Bitnomial Clearinghouse. Additionally, six months of trading history on a CFTC-regulated futures market meets a key milestone for enabling spot ETFs under the SEC’s generic listing standards.”

Bitnomial, LLC, headquartered in Chicago, owns and operates U.S. CFTC-regulated exchange (DCM), clearinghouse (DCO), and clearing brokerage (FCM) subsidiaries. The company offers leveraged spot, perpetuals, futures, options, and prediction markets on a single unified exchange and clearinghouse with digital asset margin and settlement capabilities.

TRON DAO said the TRX futures launch follows Bitnomial’s earlier introduction of spot trading for TRX, expanding the range of regulated products available for the asset in the U.S. market. The development also builds on broader institutional momentum for the TRON ecosystem, including the availability of TRX custody and staking through Anchorage Digital, the first federally chartered crypto bank in the United States.

As demand for regulated digital asset products continues to increase, the availability of TRX futures on Bitnomial provides market participants with additional tools for trading and portfolio management while further connecting the TRON ecosystem with traditional financial markets.

All Bitnomial futures contracts are offered by, and subject to the rules of, Bitnomial Exchange, LLC.
