Geneva, Switzerland, July 29, 2026 — TRON DAO has announced the launch of TRX spot trading and perpetual contracts on Backpack Exchange, significantly expanding market access to the native utility token of the TRON blockchain network.

The listing allows Backpack users in eligible jurisdictions to trade TRX through both spot and perpetual markets on the platform. Backpack's regulated exchange has processed more than $400 billion in cumulative trading volume and serves a user base ranging from experienced traders to those newly entering Web3. The dual listing pairs direct token ownership through spot markets with perpetual contracts, which enable leveraged positions on TRX without requiring custody of the underlying asset — broadening the range of strategies available to traders within a single venue.

"With over 14 billion transactions processed and 3.5 million daily users, TRON demonstrates a blockchain engineered for high-volume, real-world activity," said Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson for TRON DAO. "Bringing TRX to Backpack embeds that proven infrastructure into a regulated exchange, giving users worldwide a secure gateway to trade and manage digital assets."

Backpack operates across more than 150 countries, offering spot trading, perpetuals, and additional trading products within a single compliant venue. The TRX listing integrates the token alongside Backpack's existing markets, giving traders a direct route to TRX exposure without the need to manage multiple platforms or separate custody arrangements.

The partnership further reinforces TRON's positioning as foundational infrastructure for digital asset ownership, trading, and settlement. The network's role as the largest host of Tether's USDT stablecoin — with circulating supply exceeding $90 billion — means that broader regulated access to TRX is relevant to participants across the stablecoin ecosystem who rely on the token for transaction fees and network operations. The network continues to expand the range of venues through which both retail users and institutions can access TRX.
