Odaily News, August 20 — JustLend DAO announced the launch of "Buy Energy," a one-stop energy direct purchase service, offering TRON ecosystem users a more efficient and cost-effective new option for resource acquisition. This feature precisely targets short-term energy demand scenarios, with users receiving their energy within 10 seconds of placing an order, completely eliminating the 14-day lock-up and redemption waiting period required by traditional staking models, truly achieving "buy and use instantly." Additionally, a single order supports batch energy purchases for up to 50 addresses, greatly enhancing convenience for multi-account operations.According to estimates, compared to directly burning TRX to obtain energy, the Buy Energy feature can help users save approximately 63% in costs, combining both efficiency and cost-effectiveness advantages, further lowering the barrier to entry for interactions on the TRON blockchain.

According to Russian crypto media Bits.media, Maria Patrikeyeva, Managing Director of the Derivatives Market at Moscow Exchange, stated that the exchange plans to launch Bitcoin and Ethereum perpetual futures contracts for professional investors and plans to gradually expand the tradable cryptocurrency varieties to 10. Perpetual futures are contracts with no fixed expiration date that are automatically rolled over daily, offering greater flexibility compared to traditional quarterly/monthly contracts. Currently, Moscow Exchange has already launched quarterly and monthly futures for five cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Ripple, and Tron, in the summer of 2025. In addition, the Russian Central Bank has recently included BTC, ETH, and USDT in the list of crypto assets allowed for trading by non-professional investors. It is worth noting that Moscow Exchange is currently on the U.S. sanctions list, with restricted access to international settlement infrastructure, and the exchange is also preparing to establish a digital settlement depository system independent of the National Settlement Depository.

According to the Central Bank of Russia’s “Financial Stability Review,” Russian private investors currently hold approximately 3.8 billion rubles in cryptocurrency-linked financial instruments—a figure nearly unchanged from 3.7 billion rubles six months earlier—indicating stagnation in market interest growth. Of this amount, 1.7 billion rubles flowed into crypto-linked corporate bonds; 5,600 investors collectively held cryptocurrency futures positions worth 1.7 billion rubles; and roughly 3,800 investors allocated 354 million rubles to digital financial assets pegged to Bitcoin and Ethereum. Major issuers include large banks such as Sber and VTB. Meanwhile, the Moscow Exchange has progressively launched Bitcoin and Ethereum futures, along with related ETFs, and will introduce Solana, Ripple, and TRON futures in May 2026.
Decentralized USDD announced that its yield-bearing token, sUSDD, has officially launched on Pendle’s Ethereum-chain 91-day fixed-yield market—marking another breakthrough for USDD in DeFi yield scenarios and capital efficiency strategies.

During the campaign, YT users can share over $300,000 in incentives; combined with Pendle’s official 30% exclusive reward, participants also stand a chance to receive random TRX airdrops. The official team stated that it will continue exploring diversified yield opportunities to effectively meet market liquidity demand and further integrate USDD deeply into the mainstream DeFi ecosystem.
According to Russian financial media RBK, the Moscow Exchange is in discussions with multiple brokers regarding cryptocurrency trading solutions. It is currently testing a 7×24全天候 trading model and digital asset deposit/withdrawal functionality, and plans to launch dedicated cryptocurrency accounts. However, due to constraints imposed by the clearing system’s operating hours, round-the-clock trading is unlikely to be implemented in the short term. Meanwhile, Russia’s “Digital Currency and Digital Rights Bill” has passed its first reading. The bill stipulates that Russian citizens may only purchase cryptocurrencies through licensed intermediaries, and that listed cryptocurrencies must meet stringent criteria—including an average market capitalization exceeding 5 trillion rubles over the past two years, an average daily trading volume exceeding 1 trillion rubles, and a trading history of at least five years. In practice, only major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana meet these requirements.
