Previously known as SRM Entertainment, Tron Inc. has adopted a new business model that combines blockchain finance with consumer product distribution. The company retains its core merchandise operations, which include supplying custom toys and souvenirs to Disney Parks, Universal, SeaWorld, and Six Flags.
Alongside this, Tron Inc. now manages the largest public treasury of TRON (TRX) tokens, positioning itself within the corporate blockchain sector. Under CEO Rich Miller, the company has shifted its strategy to use blockchain for treasury and operational transparency.
Leadership Transition and Strategic Realignment
With Justin Sun serving as Global Advisor, the company is expanding its focus on blockchain-based applications tied to real-world industries. The firm aims to enhance how public companies manage cross-border payments and digital assets while maintaining consumer product lines tied to global entertainment brands.
The leadership team has steered Tron Inc. toward adopting a dual approach anchored in blockchain finance and entertainment merchandise. This model offers a mix of traditional revenue and blockchain utility under one publicly traded entity. The company's decision to go public through Nasdaq, trading under the ticker symbol TRON, marks a rare hybrid approach.
The listing reflects a trend where blockchain infrastructure is being tested within conventional business operations. Market participants are now tracking whether Tron Inc.’s blockchain and merchandise integration model can attract fresh capital in the public markets. The move may also prompt other firms to explore combining traditional sectors with decentralized asset management.
