Shyam Nagarajan, Hedera Chief Operating Officer. Torav Torabi, CEO of Move Industries. Moderated by Messari CEO Eric Turner, this session explored the accelerating transition from real-world assets to blockchain infrastructure. Panelists considered how tokenized equities are expanding access to global markets, reducing payment frictions, and creating new opportunities for institutional and retail participation. Representing TRON’s leadership in stablecoin payments and real-world asset deployment, Elfalla highlighted how scalable public chains are building the foundation for the next generation of global finance.
The first day ended with TRON DAO hosting SmartCon’s official welcome mixer at the Expo Hall and a dedicated networking reception with TRON branded snacks and refreshments.

TRON founder Justin Sun delivered the opening keynote speech entitled “Connecting the World Through TRON” from the Grand Central main stage on the second day. In his speech, Mr. Sun outlined TRON’s vision for a seamlessly interconnected blockchain ecosystem and shared key advances across the network, including the groundbreaking achievements of the T3 Financial Crimes Unit (T3 FCU).
“In August of this year, we announced the launch of T3+, a global collaboration program aimed at expanding public-private partnerships to combat illegal activities on the blockchain, and we welcomed Binance as the first official member of the program,” Sun said. “In less than a year, T3 FCU has frozen over $300 million in criminal assets on every continent except Africa.”
TRON DAO’s participation in SmartCon 2025 highlights TRON DAO’s commitment to driving global Web3 adoption and fostering collaboration across ecosystems.
