TRON Ecosystem Launches into DeFi 2.0: Revolutionary SunPerp Debuts, Alongside New Chinese Brand "Sun Wukong"

PANAMA CITY – October 1, 2025 — At the globally anticipated TOKEN2049 summit, the TRON ecosystem's first decentralized perpetual contracts exchange (Perp DEX), SunPerp, officially announced its launch. The platform also unveiled its new Chinese brand, "Sun Wukong" (孙悟空), making it the first major DEX in DeFi history to adopt an iconic Chinese brand name.. 

SunPerp is engineered to combine the capital efficiency and seamless user experience of a centralized exchange (CEX) with the core tenets of decentralized finance (DeFi): asset sovereignty, security, and transparency. This strategic launch marks a pivotal moment for the TRON ecosystem, transitioning its identity from a leading "payment chain" to a comprehensive "trading chain" equipped with advanced financial infrastructure. 

Redefining DeFi: SunPerp’s Hybrid Architecture and Market-Leading Features 

In his keynote address, Justin Sun, TRON founder and advisor to HTX and SunPerp, highlighted TRON's formidable user and capital base, built on its dominance in the global USDT market. 

"The launch of SunPerp is a direct response to the irreversible trend of capital migration from centralized to decentralized platforms," Sun stated. "Decentralization is the future of all financial products. We have synthesized the best practices of the industry, standing on the shoulders of giants to build the most robust and revolutionary Perp DEX, providing global users with true financial empowerment." 

During the public beta phase, SunPerp has already attracted over 10,000 users, generating a cumulative trading volume exceeding 900 million USDT. The platform plans to expand its number of trading pairs to between 100 and 200 in the coming weeks, offering users significantly richer trading opportunities. 

Unprecedented Security, Innovation, and Ecosystem Integration In his presentation, Sun unveiled several groundbreaking products and services: 

• Zero Gas Strategy & Fee Reduction: SunPerp is committed to offering the lowest trading fees across the network. Its "Zero Gas Strategy" fully refunds users for the Gas fees incurred during initial contract approval (s-authorization), deposits, transactions (c-trades), and withdrawals, significantly lowering user trading costs. 
• Enhanced Privacy: The default "Dark Pool" mode conceals order books and position data to prevent front-running and targeted liquidations, enhancing user security. 
• Professional Trading Tools: A low-latency API is already available for quantitative and high-frequency traders, with mobile applications and integrations with leading wallets like TokenPocket and OKX Wallet currently in development.
• Cross-Chain Efficiency: SunPerp’s architecture supports efficient trading and settlement of assets from other major public chains, including Solana and Ethereum, on the TRON network. 

Multi-Chain Expansion: Setting a New Standard for Perpetual Contracts 

SunPerp is launching an aggressive multi-chain strategy that will rapidly expand support across leading public chains, setting the definitive new standard for multi-chain perpetual contracts. 

• Phase 1: The integration of Ethereum, BSC, and Arbitrum will kick off this phase. This move is critical to achieving full interoperability across all major EVM-compatible assets immediately. 
• Phase 2: This phase focuses on the strategic integration of Solana. This key step instantly activates both the EVM and non-EVM ecosystems, unlocking a vast array of diversified trading scenarios. 
• Future Rollouts: SunPerp will continue its expansion with the subsequent integration of high-demand public chains, including Polygon, Aptos, and Sui, ensuring comprehensive coverage for the broadest possible user base globally. 

A Perpetual Future: Security Meets Synergistic Growth 

SunPerp's launch affirms that centralized and decentralized platforms are not competitors but crucial complements. CEXs onboard new users; DEXs secure their freedom and assets. Our revolution aims to provide a seamless experience, securely bridging users from the centralized world to the freedom of DeFi. 

• Powerful Tokenomics: To drive this vision, SunPerp introduces a unique tokenomics model centered on the core platform token, SUN. An explicit commitment ensures 100% of platform revenue will be used for SUN repurchase and burning, creating a powerful value capture mechanism. Future utility will include governance, fee discounts, and incentives, establishing a strong, circular value model. 
• Waivering Security: We prioritize user asset safety by launching a dedicated Insurance Fund. This fund provides a solid guarantee, protecting user interests against extreme market volatility and system risks. 
• Strategic Partnerships: We have secured deep partnerships with top-tier market makers, renowned wallet services, and community platforms to ensure a thriving ecosystem. 

With SunPerp's debut, the TRON ecosystem is fully fortified and elevated. From SunSwap (trading cornerstone) to SunPump (community culture), and now SunPerp (derivatives future), TRON is establishing the world's most complete and open DeFi ecosystem. 

Community-Centric Growth and Incentive Programs 

SunPerp is dedicated to fostering a vibrant and engaged user community through a series of robust incentive programs:

• High-Yield Staking: A unique staking mechanism allows users to earn up to approximately 12% APY on deposited USDT, providing a high-yield, flexible savings opportunity within the TRON ecosystem. 
• Comprehensive Rewards: A new points system will reward users for all on-platform activities, including staking, trading, and providing liquidity, with points being retroactively applied to the public beta period. 
• Active Engagement: The platform will host ongoing community-driven events, including trading competitions and referral programs, to reward participation and drive ecosystem growth. 

"Sun Wukong": A Cultural & DeFi Revolution 

The launch culminated with the powerful unveiling of SunPerp's Chinese brand: "Sun Wukong". The audience erupted as Justin Sun announced the name. 

As the world's first DEX to embrace a Chinese brand, "Sun Wukong" is more than just a name; it’s a symbol. It embodies DeFi's openness and inclusivity while representing the platform’s spirit of fearlessness, disruption, and aggressive progress. This move seamlessly merges Chinese culture with the global crypto narrative, providing an emotionally resonant and highly imaginative brand for global Chinese users and marking a bold new chapter in DeFi brand development.
