Meanwhile, trader Jacob Canfield noted Tron’s origin as an Ethereum clone and pointed out its impressive 300% gain in 2024 compared to Ethereum’s 63%.

MMCrypto observed that TRX could surpass its 7-year-old all-time high and continue chasing Bitcoin’s trajectory over multiple cycles. He added that while his spot position remains intact, he’s waiting for an ideal long entry.
