Analysts Double Down on $150K Bitcoin as Market Faces ‘Weakest Bear Case’

Tron Inc.’s recent moves in the TRX market are drawing attention at a time 
when investors are searching for signals beyond short-term price swings. Over 
the past week, the NASDAQ-listed company has steadily increased its exposure 
to TRX, while on-chain data points to sustained network usage. Related

Concurrently, these developments have helped stabilize the token after weeks 
of weakness, even as broader market caution remains visible in trading 
volumes. TRX&#8217;s price trends to the downside following an important surge as 
seen on the daily chart. Source: TRXUSD on Tradingview Tron Inc. Expands TRX 
Treasury Holdings According to disclosures shared by Justin Sun, Tron Inc. has 
acquired an additional 179,408 TRX at an average price of $0.28. This purchase 
lifted the company’s total TRX treasury holdings to roughly 680.7 million 
tokens. The acquisition follows similar buys earlier in the month, including 
purchases on February 7 and February 8 at comparable price levels. The company 
has framed its accumulation strategy as part of a longer-term approach to 
building a Tron-based digital asset treasury. The designated on-chain wallet 
for these holdings is publicly trackable on Tronscan, allowing market 
participants to verify the transactions directly. While the latest purchase is 
modest relative to total circulating supply, the pattern of repeated 
accumulation has become a key data point for traders watching corporate 
involvement in crypto assets. TRX Price Reaction and Market Response TRX 
prices rebounded modestly following confirmation of the latest acquisition and 
Justin Sun’s public endorsement of the strategy. The token was trading around 
$0.2785 at last check, up about 0.5% on the day. Despite the recovery, 
performance over longer periods remains mixed, with TRX still down on both 
weekly and monthly timeframes. Trading activity suggests a more cautious 
market response. Reported 24-hour trading volume fell by roughly 16% to about 
$532 million, indicating that while prices have stabilized, participation has 
not fully returned. Analysts note that corporate accumulation often provides 
psychological support near purchase levels, but sustained upside typically 
requires broader demand. On-Chain Activity Adds Context Beyond treasury moves, 
Tron’s on-chain metrics continue to show steady usage. Transaction volumes, 
active addresses, and smart contract interactions remain elevated, supported 
by stablecoin transfers and decentralized application activity across the 
network. Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Below $80 Risks Restarting A Brutal 
Downtrend Historically, rising on-chain engagement has coincided with more 
resilient TRX price behavior, even during periods of uneven market sentiment. 
However, on-chain strength does not operate in isolation, as regulatory 
developments, macroeconomic conditions, and broader crypto market trends 
continue to influence price action. Cover image from ChatGPT, TRONUSD chart
