On July 25th, TRON's core DeFi liquidity infrastructure SUN.io successfully completed the fifty-first round of SUN token buyback and burn, with this round seeing a burn scale exceeding 9.02 million SUN.

As of now, SUN.io has continuously executed fifty-one rounds of buyback and burn operations without interruption, with a total amount of SUN tokens burned reaching nearly 700 million. This stable record, spanning multiple bull and bear cycles in the crypto market, not only fully verifies the long-term reliability of the SUN deflationary mechanism but also builds a solid value anchoring base for the SUN token with an uninterrupted buyback rhythm amidst extreme market volatility, deeply showcasing the project team's long-term operational commitment throughout the cycles.

Crucially, the funding structure for the SUN buyback and burn has undergone a key upgrade: from early reliance solely on the single fee income from the DEX platform SunSwap V2, it has gradually expanded to cover the revenue matrix of multiple SUN.io product lines including SunSwap V2, the Meme issuance platform SunPump, and the decentralized perpetual contract platform SunX.

In the future, the development of any business line within the SUN.io ecosystem will directly translate into hard support for the value of SUN.

SUN.io has continuously completed 51 rounds of SUN token buyback and burn, with a total amount burned reaching nearly 700 million.

Over five years, SUN.io has continuously completed 51 rounds of uninterrupted SUN token buyback and burn, with a total amount burned nearing 700 million. More importantly, the source of buyback funds has undergone structural upgrades in tandem with the expansion of the SUN.io ecosystem, steadily expanding from early reliance on a single DEX fee revenue to covering the multi-ecosystem business matrix of "DEX trading + Meme issuance + derivative trading," achieving a deep leap from single-point buyback and burn to multi-business collaborative driving, marking the formal establishment of a mature multi-ecosystem income collaborative buyback and burn mechanism.

According to the latest announcement on the buyback and burn of the 51st round of SUN tokens, from April 25 to July 25, 2026 (Singapore time), SUN.io repurchased and burned a total of over 9.02 million SUN tokens, with the specific figure being 9,025,027.40 SUN.

Since the formal launch of the SUN token buyback and burn mechanism on December 15, 2021, SUN.io has continuously completed 51 rounds of execution without interruption, with a total amount of SUN tokens burned reaching 678,547,188.32, officially nearing the 700 million mark.

Currently, the funding sources for the SUN buyback and burn have achieved full coverage across the SUN.io multiverse, including transaction fees from SunSwap V2, income from the SunPump platform, and business income from SunX, with clear traceable contributions to the total cumulative amount burned from each business line:

• SunSwap V2 income buyback and burn: 381,962,177.45 tokens
• SunPump income buyback and burn: 285,879,914.81 tokens
• SunX income buyback and burn: 10,705,096.06 tokens

From the trajectory of the funding structure's iteration, starting from the 50th round (executed on April 25, 2026), SUN.io officially included the income from the SunX business into the buyback funding pool on top of the existing SunSwap V2 fees and SunPump revenues, further widening the source boundary for the burn funds.

Looking back at the evolution path of the buyback and burn funding structure, the SUN deflationary mechanism has continuously upgraded in sync with the expansion of the SUN.io ecosystem: at the initial launch of the mechanism on December 15, 2021, only partial income from SunSwap V2 was used for buyback and burn, with an execution cycle of once every four weeks; on September 4, 2024, all the revenue from the Meme issuance platform SunPump was fully included in the buyback burn system; starting in January 2026, the real income generated by the derivative trading platform SunX was also officially added to the buyback funding pool.

Thus, the funding sources for the SUN token buyback and burn have gradually expanded from the single SunSwap V2 business line to encompass core business segments within the SUN.io ecosystem, covering transaction fees from SunSwap V2, income from SunPump, and business income from SunX, completing the critical transition from single-point supply to multi-track collaboration.

In terms of execution frequency, since the 50th round, the execution frequency of SUN burn has been adjusted to quarterly, with the data and complete details of the current buyback and burn disclosed around the 25th of each first month of the quarter, aligning the information disclosure rhythm with the business revenue settlement cycle, further enhancing the operational efficiency and transparency of the mechanism.

At the same time, each round of SUN token buyback and burn operations is publicly executed on-chain, with a dedicated page for buyback and burn information disclosure, detailing the hash values, burn quantities, and execution times of each transaction, ensuring that the entire process is transparent and traceable, allowing community users to verify the actual execution condition of each round of buyback and burn at any time.

During the five-year period from 2021 to 2026, the crypto market has experienced multiple rounds of bull and bear cycles and extreme market shocks, with the DeFi industry fully experiencing cycles of explosion to reshuffling, completing multiple product iterations and pattern reshaping. However, SUN.io has remained consistent, steadily advancing the SUN token buyback and burn without missing a round, and has continuously executed fifty-one rounds of operations. It has also synchronously promoted the continued expansion of funding sources—from early reliance solely on the SunSwap single business line to now achieving collaborative funding across multiple business lines of SUN.io, confirming the project's long-term commitment through steady actions and steps throughout the cycles of growth, and its firm commitment to community value return.

The SUN token value capture system is fully upgraded, empowered by the collaborative gains of multiple business revenues within the SUN.io ecosystem.

The SUN token is the core native token that runs through all product lines of SUN.io, deeply carrying core functions such as ecosystem governance, user incentives, and value capture. Now, the buyback and burn mechanism is propelled by the real profits of multiple business lines of SUN.io, fully iterating and upgrading the value capture system of the SUN token, achieving a leap from single business value support to a multi-ecosystem value closure.

For a long time, SUN.io has maintained a rhythm of product innovation, and its business landscape continues to expand in an orderly manner. It has built a comprehensive product matrix covering functions such as SunSwap (DEX asset exchange), SunPump (Meme asset issuance), and SunX (decentralized perpetual contracts), fully covering mainstream on-chain trading scenarios, precisely positioning itself in the core arena of DeFi, laying a solid product foundation and ecological base for the collaborative buyback and burn mechanism across multiple businesses.

With the landing and formation of a multi-ecosystem layout, the funding sources for the SUN token buyback and burn have also achieved a critical leap, upgrading from the early model of "single DEX revenue driven" to a new pattern of "DEX trading + Meme issuance + perpetual contracts" with multi-track collaborative supply. After the mechanism upgrade, the sources of buyback funds have become increasingly diverse, greatly enhancing the resilience of the ecological income structure, completely breaking the limitations caused by volatility in a single business, allowing the SUN token deflationary mechanism to achieve qualitative breakthroughs in risk resistance and cyclical value anchoring capability.

The products of SUN.io are not isolated functional builds, but through liquidity sharing, user interconnection, and deep scenario complementarity, they construct a complete DeFi business loop covering "Meme asset innovative issuance—DEX spot trading—perpetual contract derivatives trading." Each business line has established differentiated core competitive advantages in their respective tracks, continuously producing revenue for the ecosystem and solidifying the foundational support for the native token.

In the DEX track, SunSwap, as the largest decentralized exchange by trading volume within the TRON ecosystem, has accommodated over 99% of the on-chain trading demand. It has now formed a multi-version collaborative structure from V1 to V4, with clear layered positioning and sustained growth momentum.

In March of this year, SunSwap launched the innovative V4 version, concentrating all liquidity funds into a single smart contract for unified management through a singleton model, while incorporating six underlying innovative mechanisms including native TRX direct access, flash accounting, hook Hooks, custom accounting, and subscribers, fundamentally addressing the long-standing industry pain points of slow multi-routing transactions, liquidity fragmentation, underperformance, and high trading costs in traditional DEX, significantly reducing Gas costs for complex transactions and promoting the iterative upgrade of DEX technology paradigms.

Currently, the three versions of SunSwap V2, V3, and V4 are forming complementary forces, continuously driving the platform transaction scale to expand steadily. Particularly, SunSwap V4 has achieved rapid growth in both liquidity and transaction volume just four months after its launch, with liquidity peaks surpassing 180 million USD and 24-hour transaction volumes exceeding 70 million USD, showcasing strong new track growth momentum.

In the Meme track, SunPump has grown into the core asset issuance platform for the TRON ecosystem, with the issuance volume of Meme tokens exceeding that of leading competitors such as Pump.fun during its initial launch. Currently, SunPump has built a comprehensive support system for Meme projects covering "community cold starts—precise traffic empowerment—CEX listing docking—subsequent growth incentives" based on resources from the TRON ECO Star creator community and CEX exchange alliances, paving a complete growth path from zero to one, and becoming an influential Meme asset incubation center in the industry.

In the derivative track, SunX is the strategic product of SUN.io's layout in the decentralized perpetual contract arena. Since its launch in September 2025, it has rapidly gained traction thanks to a smooth trading experience. In 2026, growth further accelerated, with total transaction volumes reaching 32 billion USD in the past six months, making it the core liquidity hub for perpetual contract trading on the TRON blockchain.

According to the latest official data released on July 26, the total value of crypto assets locked on the SUN.io platform (TVL) has reached 652 million USD, with a cumulative transaction volume over the past seven days amounting to 338 million USD, and on-chain interaction transaction counts reaching 64,900, with nearly 26,400 total funds pools and sustained high ecological activity levels.

This comprehensive multi-dimensional ecological matrix covering "DEX + Meme issuance + perpetual contracts" provides a continuous source of genuine revenue support for the SUN token buyback and burn. More critically, the funds injected from multiple business lines endow the SUN burn engine with strong cross-cycle resilience: regardless of whether the crypto market is in a bull or bear phase, the three segments of DEX spot trading, Meme asset issuance, and derivative contract trading can alternately form stable revenue support, fundamentally avoiding the impact of volatility in a single business line on the buyback and burn rhythm, ensuring the long-term continuity and predictability of the buyback and burn processes.

From the ecological revenue to the transmission of token value, it is this complete collaboration mechanism that has successfully systematized the overall profitability of the SUN.io ecosystem into the core base of scarcity for the SUN token, continuously injecting stable protocol revenue into the buyback and burn process, constructing a solid and sustainable rigid value anchor for the SUN token.

Furthermore, the long-term stability of this value anchor cannot be separated from the continuous empowerment of the underlying ecology. Leveraging the vast ecological soil of TRON, SUN.io enjoys abundant traffic, funding, and resources, providing strong long-term growth momentum. Currently, the circulation of USDT stablecoin on the TRON blockchain has exceeded 90 billion USD, steadily trending towards a trillion scale, with high activity levels being consistently maintained in scenarios such as on-chain stablecoin transfers, DeFi trading, and on-chain payments, efficiently circulating vast amounts of funds within the TRON network. As a core trading infrastructure within the ecosystem, SUN.io naturally undertakes most core trading demands within the ecosystem, from basic asset exchanges to deep liquidity supply, becoming an indispensable key hub during user interactions on-chain, continuously solidifying its underlying business growth foundation.

In the development coordinate system of the Web3 industry, the DeFi sector has officially bid farewell to rough liquidity mining incentives, fully entering a new development phase of "real earnings, value landing." With its uninterrupted and fully transparent record of 51 rounds of token buyback and burn, as well as a diversified and sustainable ecological revenue system, SUN.io has set a benchmark for decentralized protocols in repaying token holders through genuine business performance, forming a complete value flywheel of "ecological real profits → multi-business income aggregation → periodic public burn → SUN token deflation and appreciation," deeply binding the long-term value of the SUN token with the overall growth of the SUN.io ecosystem, making them completely synchronous.

Looking ahead, as the technical advantages of SunSwap V4 continuously release and the ecological trading scale steadily expands, SunPump continues to incubate quality boundary-breaking Meme projects, activating ecological innovation vitality, coupled with the continuous rise in trading volume for SunX derivatives, the overall revenue scale of SUN.io is expected to achieve steady growth, and the funding pool for token buyback and burn will also continue to expand. Under this trend, the deflation flywheel for SUN tokens will enter a self-reinforcing upward channel, fully unleashing long-term value growth potential.
