Geneva, Switzerland, April 1, 2025 – TRON DAO, the community-driven organization focused on promoting the decentralization of the web through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), showcased its leadership at the DC Blockchain Summit 2025 as a Gold Tier Sponsor. Hosted by The Digital Chamber, the event convened policymakers, industry leaders, and innovators to contribute to the future landscape of blockchain policy and regulation.
T3 FCU Takes the Spotlight
The event kicked off with a panel moderated by Kristopher Klaich, Director of Policy at The Digital Chamber. This session featured prominent figures from a groundbreaking partnership: Justin Sun (Founder, TRON), Paolo Ardoino (CEO, Tether), Ari Redbord (Global Head of Policy, TRM Labs), and David Feder (Law Enforcement Relations Counsel, TRON). The panelists examined their unit’s effective model for countering cryptocurrency-related financial crime, including their successful freezing of $9 million linked to the recent Bybit hack, noted as the largest cryptocurrency theft ever.
“Our collaboration with law enforcement agencies worldwide is essential for identifying and tackling illicit activities on the blockchain,” stated Justin Sun, Founder of TRON.
“The cooperation among our companies is vital,” affirmed Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether. “Blockchain is the least effective tool for criminals since every transaction can be traced. We strive to ensure that every user can navigate our system in the most secure way possible.”
Launched publicly in September 2024, T3 FCU has seized over $150 million in criminal assets across five continents, leveraging TRM Labs’ blockchain intelligence and the collective capabilities of TRON and Tether to identify and disrupt illegal activities globally. The panel on Wednesday highlighted the significance of USDT on the TRON blockchain, which hosts a substantial part of USDT’s market capitalization, exceeding $144 billion.
TRON VIP Networking Lounge
At the summit, TRON DAO created a strong impact by hosting the TRON Lounge, a dedicated networking space where attendees engaged in conversations about the latest developments in blockchain technology.
Notable industry figures and partners from TRON DAO were in attendance, including Adrian Wall, Director at the Digital Sovereignty Alliance (DSA). This nonprofit social welfare organization aims to promote public policies that favor ethical innovation in decentralized technologies, blockchain, cryptocurrency, Web3, and artificial intelligence, supported by a coalition of industry pioneers led by TRON DAO.
