Geneva, Switzerland, October 10, 2026 — Tron daoa community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the Internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), participated in TOKEN2049 Singapore as a headline sponsor and in Blockworks Asia 2026’s Digital Asset Summit (DAS) at Marina Bay Sands. Justin Sun, founder of TRON, joined the heated discussions at both conferences, sharing his views on stablecoins, institutional adoption, AI-based commerce, machine-to-machine payments, and the need for quantum-resilient blockchain infrastructure.
On October 7, Sun joined Michael Ippolito, co-founder of Blockworks, on the main stage at DAS Asia 2026 for a fireside session titled “In Conversation with Justin Sun.” DAS Asia, organized by Blockworks, is an institutional-focused digital asset conference that examines the intersection between traditional finance and the digital asset economy. The conversation covered the development of stablecoins, institutional adoption, proxy AI payments and the role of TRON in the global digital asset economy.
Sun highlighted the growing role of token assets and stablecoins as practical financial infrastructure, especially for cross-border payments and access to digital dollars and US-based assets. He also discussed the emerging role of AI agents in the economy, predicting that in the near future, AI agents will increasingly make payments, purchase digital services, and manage financial activity on behalf of users.
On October 8, Sun joined Kevin Volonnier, founder of When Shift Happens, for a “Fireside Chat with Justin Sun” on the main stage of TOKEN2049. The discussion explored the future of blockchain, stablecoins, AI agents and the broader evolution of global finance. Sun also discussed the need to prepare blockchain networks for quantum computing, noting that TRON has already made tangible progress toward post-quantum readiness, with the deployment of comprehensive post-quantum signature support on the Nile Testnet.
Furthermore, referring to the mathematics behind the cryptography that secures blockchain networks, Sun turned to the Justin Sun Award, which he described as “the Nobel Prize for the age of artificial intelligence.” Designed as a decentralized, trustless, “problem list” academic rewards mechanism, the award recognizes achievements in core disciplines verified through automated formal verification. It seeks to accelerate basic research through collaboration between humans and artificial intelligence.
“AI agents using cryptocurrencies will become the largest use case in the industry within the next five years,” Sun said. “As AI agents begin to transact, pay, and operate autonomously, blockchain will become the financial infrastructure behind them. TRON’s focus is on providing a fast, efficient, and accessible settlement layer that can support this next generation of global finance.”
TRON DAO also hosted a dedicated booth at the conference, giving attendees the opportunity to connect with the broader TRON community and learn about the workings of the ecosystem across stablecoin payments, decentralized applications, and AI-driven financial infrastructure. Outside of the conference hall, TRON DAO also hosted a creative and media networking happy hour, welcoming industry leaders to an evening filled with snacks and conversation.
During both events, discussions underscored Tron’s focus on building the blockchain infrastructure for a rapidly evolving financial system shaped by stablecoins, tokenized assets, AI agents, and increasingly resilient digital asset networks.
