Geneva, Switzerland — March 19, 2026 — TRON DAO has successfully launched the TRX/USDC trading pair on Aerodrome, a leading decentralized exchange on Base. This integration enhances the decentralized finance ecosystem by connecting TRON’s blockchain network with Base’s growing DeFi environment. Retail and institutional traders can now benefit from improved liquidity and reduced fragmentation across both networks.
The introduction of the TRX/USDC trading pair allows for seamless trading of TRX, TRON's native utility token, within Base’s DeFi markets. With LayerZero's cross-chain infrastructure, assets can effortlessly transition between TRON and Base. This collaboration broadens access to liquidity, thereby allowing traders more flexibility.
As the dominant decentralized exchange on Base, Aerodrome accounts for over 50% of the DEX trading volume on the network. This growth is buoyed by innovative liquidity pools and fee mechanisms that attract substantial participation.
TRON’s inclusion in Aerodrome is a strategic move aimed at expanding its ecosystem reach and enhancing liquidity options. This integration brings forth new potential for both TRON users and DeFi enthusiasts, reinforcing the interconnected nature of decentralized exchanges.
The collaboration is poised to create a robust liquidity bridge, facilitating trading and liquidity provision for the TRX/USDC pool now available on Aerodrome.
