In February, TRON DAO closed its participation as a gold sponsor at Duke University’s crypto Assets Conference, held in Durham, North Carolina. The event brought together over 200 experts in finance, policy, technology, and academia to discuss changes in the crypto assets sector.
Sam Elfarra, community spokesperson for TRON DAO, participated in a high-level panel on stablecoins moderated by Lee Reiners from Duke’s Financial Economics Center. Representatives from Circle, Stripe, and the Stellar Development Foundation also joined the discussion, analyzing how these crypto currencies gain adoption across trading platforms, payment networks, and corporate treasuries.
Panelists examined the growth of stablecoin issuers from both fintech startups and traditional financial institutions. They also evaluated the expansion of different reserve models and how regulatory frameworks evolve to shape the design and development of these currencies.
The Role of Blockchain Infrastructure in Finance
Scalable and low-cost blockchain infrastructure serves as the foundation for global financial systems of the future. TRON operates as a leading network in stablecoin settlement and real-world adoption. Elfarra emphasized TRON’s commitment to constructive dialogue with regulators, academics, and institutional players.
The organization has already accumulated experience facilitating low-cost transactions through its network. Panel participants recognized that demand for fast payment solutions grows among corporations and emerging markets. Stablecoins address a practical need for more efficient international transfers.

After the main panel, TRON’s team attended a fireside chat with Crypto in America and Bo Hines, where trends in crypto asset and stablecoin adoption in the U.S. economy received deeper examination.
Through this participation, TRON DAO reaffirmed its position as a relevant actor in conversations about the future of crypto finance. The organization continues collaborating with policymakers and academic leaders to develop frameworks that enable greater integration of blockchain technology into established financial systems.
