Odaily News: On October 8, TRON founder Justin Sun attended the TOKEN2049 Singapore main venue event and held a conversation with Kevin Follonier, founder of the podcast "When Shift Happens." Justin Sun shared his experience in the crypto industry and, focusing on the development trend of AI and blockchain integration as well as the vision of the "Sun Yuchen Award," further clarified TRON's strategic positioning in the AI era. He stated that the integration of cryptocurrency and AI Agents will be the most important application scenario in the next 5 years.

Justin Sun stated that crypto, as continuously iterable software technology, is superior to the long-stagnant traditional banking system, and the new generation of users will be more inclined to use crypto services. The integration of cryptocurrency and AI Agents is one of the most important scenarios in the next five years. Currently, TRON is building an AI economic and financial network, with approximately $100 billion in protocol-custodied assets and $20-30 billion in average daily transaction volume, while also advancing the tokenization of U.S. stocks and the construction of the AI routing platform B.AI.

To give back to the industry and accelerate the development of basic science, Justin Sun recently launched the "Sun Yuchen Award" to reward contributors in the fields of mathematics and AI with higher frequency, with a maximum single-question prize of $1 million. He stated that he will give back crypto achievements to science, which will in turn feed back into ecosystem development.
