Justin Sun, founder, TRON (TRX), infused $220 million on June 15 to purchase TRX crypto tokens on Binance. This move comes after TRON DAO Reserve withdrew 2.5 billion TRX out of Binance after the USDD stablecoin it manages lost its 1:1 peg to US dollars. Despite these moves USDD has not fully recovered its peg and now trades at $0.9708 as of 8.50 am, as per Coinmarketcap data.

Meanwhile, Tag Heuer, the Switzerland-based luxury watch company, has brought a new feature which lets its users set a non-fungible token (NFT) as the watchface in its smartwatches. This feature will be at first enabled in Tag Heuer’s Calibre E4 smartwatch and will be powered by Metamask, a crypto NFT storage wallet provider.
