- OKX’s TRXUSD X-Perp gives traders USD-settled exposure to TRON, adding another derivatives route for long and short positions.
- TRX futures open interest reached about $381 million, while positive funding rates showed stronger demand for bullish exposure.
TRON climbed above $0.370 on Tuesday, reaching its highest price level since December 2024 as fresh treasury buying and new derivatives access added momentum around TRX. The token traded near $0.374 after extending a steady rally that has pushed it above key moving averages and back into a range last seen during the previous market cycle.
The latest move comes after Tron Inc., listed on Nasdaq under the ticker TRON, added 136,998 TRX tokens to its treasury at an average price of $0.3650. The company said the purchase lifted its total holdings to more than 697.5 million TRX. It also stated that it plans to keep expanding its Tron digital asset treasury to support long-term shareholder value.

That purchase gives the market another signal that corporate treasury demand remains active. While the latest acquisition is modest compared with the company’s full reserve, it adds to a larger accumulation strategy at a time when the TRX price is already moving higher. Treasury buying can reduce available supply over time, especially when firms hold tokens instead of returning them to active circulation.
Market data also shows stronger activity in TRX derivatives. Futures open interest reached about $381 million on Tuesday, its highest level since mid-October 2025, before falling slightly to $373 million. Rising open interest often shows new capital entering the market, especially when price and positioning expand at the same time.
Funding rates also turned positive over the weekend and moved to about 0.0079% on Tuesday. Positive funding often points to stronger demand for upside exposure. However, it can also show crowded positioning if leverage builds too quickly.
OKX Adds TRON X-Perpetuals as Demand Grows
OKX added TRXUSD Expiry Perpetuals, known as X-Perps, as part of a broader derivatives rollout that also included TAOUSD, BNBUSD, HYPEUSD, and LINKUSD. TRXUSD X-Perp trading opened at 09:00 UTC on May 20, giving traders another way to gain exposure to TRX without holding the token directly.
The product tracks the price of TRX through a USD-settled derivatives contract. It uses a funding mechanism like standard perpetual futures, yet it also includes a long-dated settlement structure. OKX said the X-Perp product carries a 60-month timeline, which gives it a structured lifecycle while still behaving like a long-term perpetual contract for most active traders.
For TRON, the listing expands access to TRX-linked trading products on a major global exchange. Professional traders can use the contract to take long or short positions, hedge exposure, or manage risk around the token’s price. OKX also requires users to assess product suitability, while regional access depends on local rules.
TRX price is trading above the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day exponential moving averages. The move above the prior Fibonacci swing high near $0.370 keeps the short-term structure constructive. The next visible target sits near the psychological $0.400 level if buyers hold the breakout area.
The relative strength index near 84 shows overbought conditions, which can invite a pause or pullback. Analysts place TRX’s first support near $0.370 after the recent breakout. If the pullback deepens, the $0.342 to $0.3316 range could become the next key area.
