PRESS RELEASE.
Geneva, Switzerland, April 7, 2026 — TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications ( dApps), participated as a Ruby Sponsor at the Ethereum Community Conference (EthCC[9]), held in Cannes, France, from March 30 to April 2, 2026. During the conference, TRON Founder Justin Sun took the main stage to share his perspective on the emerging role of agentic AI in payments and the infrastructure required to support it at scale. The conference brought together developers, researchers, and industry leaders to focus on technology and community.
TRON DAO’s participation at EthCC[9] was highlighted by a keynote from TRON Founder Justin Sun, who headlined the Monroe Main Stage as part of the conference’s “AI Agents and Automation” track. In his keynote, “Agentic AI and the Financial Rails of the Future,” Sun outlined TRON’s expanding focus on AI-native infrastructure. He emphasized the importance of scalable, cost-efficient networks to support AI-driven transactions and noted that collaboration with ecosystems will be key to expanding liquidity and building interoperable financial rails for the next generation of global payments.
“The scale and efficiency of the TRON network make it well-suited to support the level of activity we expect from AI systems and AI agents,” said Sun. “In many ways, TRON is the best solution for agentic AI payment infrastructure.”
Earlier in the week, TRON DAO co-hosted Builder Nights Cannes with MetaMask, bringing together developers and ecosystem participants for a discussion on cross-chain commerce. Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson at the TRON DAO, joined an expert panel titled “Building the Infrastructure for Cross-Chain Commerce.” The session examined how payment rails, cross-chain liquidity, and onchain data layers are converging to enable seamless commerce across networks. Elfarra highlighted TRON’s position as one of the most widely used blockchain networks for stablecoin settlement, making it an ideal infrastructure for Agentic AI payments. He was joined by Dan Quirk, Chief Product Officer at SDQ; Peter Lipka, Chief Executive Officer at Somnia; and Ada Vaughan, Senior Director of DeFi Partnerships at Stellar, with the panel moderated by Iris Radoi, Senior Technical Product Owner at Consensys.
Throughout the week, TRON DAO maintained an active presence on the ground, with its onsite activation serving as a consistent gathering point for attendees and facilitating ongoing conversations around the ecosystem’s latest developments.
TRON continues to strengthen its role in advancing the infrastructure layer for the emerging agentic economy. With deep, stablecoin liquidity and scalable, cost-efficient payment rails, the TRON network is the best solution for supporting the high-frequency, low-cost transactions required for agentic AI payments. As adoption accelerates, TRON DAO remains focused on enabling seamless cross-chain value transfer and supporting the development of interoperable systems for a more connected, AI-native global economy. This momentum was reflected in TRON DAO’s participation at EthCC[9].
