Geneva, Switzerland, October 3, 2025 — TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), proudly served as the Title Sponsor of TOKEN2049 Singapore, held on October 1-2, 2025. As Asia's premier crypto event, TOKEN2049 brought together the global Web3 ecosystem for two days of networking, insights, and collaboration at the iconic Marina Bay Sands Singapore.
Expanding TRON DAO’s Community Footprint
TRON DAO kick started the week co-hosting an exclusive side event ‘Web3 Cyber Night By Cyber Charge’. More than 300 attendees visited TRON DAO’s networking lounge and hospitality zone, engaging directly with community members and learning about the ecosystem’s latest developments.
At the main TOKEN2049 conference, TRON DAO also hosted a dedicated networking lounge, serving as a central hub for conference attendees to connect while exploring the TRON ecosystem. The lounge also spotlighted Founder of TRON, Justin Sun’s historic journey aboard Blue Origin’s New Shepard spacecraft, where he became one of the youngest Chinese-born commercial astronauts and the first Forbes-cover crypto entrepreneur to reach space.
Showcasing Thought Leadership Across TOKEN2049 Stages
Day 2 opened with Sun taking part in a lighthearted panel on the TOKEN2049 BingX Labs Stage — “The Roast of Justin Sun” The Inaugural Crypto Roast with Actor and Comedian, T.J. Miller, moderated by Jarred Winn, Managing Partner at Winn Ventures.
Sun then followed to headline TOKEN2049’s OKX Main Stage, delivering a keynote that spotlighted TRON’s milestones and the launch of SunPerp, TRON’s first decentralized perpetual contract trading platform.
Meanwhile, Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson at TRON DAO, delivered a keynote at the TOKEN2049 TON Stage, offering a deep dive into TRON DAO’s recent ecosystem integrations and community-driven initiatives.
Building Community Beyond the Conference Floor
The week concluded with TRON’s official TOKEN2049 Afterparty co-hosted alongside HTX DAO, with MetaMask as a Diamond Sponsor, drawing over 2,500 attendees from across the blockchain industry. The evening brought together thought leaders from DeFi projects, media partners, investors and development communities for conversations that extended well beyond the conference floor.
From headlining the Main Stage to expanding its community footprint at side events and hosting an electric afterparty, TRON DAO’s strong presence at TOKEN2049 Singapore demonstrated its role as a catalyst for blockchain adoption. As Asia’s digital economy continues to grow, TRON DAO remains at the center of innovation, accessibility, and global community building.
