The massive spurt in the traffic on the Tron Network last week came on the backdrop of the SunPump frenzy. Justin Sun is also supporting the meme crypto mania with analysts predicting that Tron’s meme coin season could be even greater than what we witnessed on Solana earlier this year.
As a result, the network is already making a few preparations in this direction in order to cater to the huge traffic boost that could come along.
TRX Price Rally Amid Meme Token Frenzy
After a minor pullback over the weekend, the TRX price has surged by 22% over the past week and is currently trading around $0.1653 with a market cap of $14.3 by unseating Cardano’s ADA again for the tenth spot. This price rally comes amid the surge in the token burns amid the frenzy indicating the growing demand and reducing supply. Sun predicted a further surge in the meme projects launching within the Tron ecosystem.
Review the current market cap and number of Tron meme coin projects:
1 billion > X > 100 million: 1
100 million > X > 10 million: 6
10 million > X > 1 million: 21What do you think the situation will be like next week?

TRX price analysis by CoinGape predicted an important breakout above the 2021 high, and now proceeding toward its all-time high levels of $0.20. Popular market analyst Miles Deutscher said that there’s still potential upside left for TRX which could push it into a price discovery zone.
2. Play $TRX.
TRX has one of the cleanest uptrends in crypto, and is one i'm actively holding/trading.
It has recently made yearly highs.
If it can break ATH and reach price discovery, there could be much more upside (it's already close in terms of breaching its mkt cap ATH). pic.twitter.com/Zf31egXhFV
