Tron and its Chief Executive Officer Justin Sun have been known to create news in the cryptocurrency space with the sheer number of updates and developments from the company’s roster. This news making ability has also been helped along by several partnerships and tie-ups that have taken the company to new heights.

One of Tron’s primary beneficiaries has been the Changpeng Zhao led Binance, and according to Misha Lederman, a famous Tron enthusiast, there seems to be something brewing between the two. Lederman’s latest tweet read:

“Interesting development in #TRON ecosystem:
@Binance seems to have unfrozen 11.9 billion TRX, previously voted for #Binance in the SR elections. That would make @SesameseedOrg 1st, @BitGuild 2nd, @trxdream 3rd & @BeatzCoin
4th in the SR ranking. @cz_binance, care to comment😉?”

During the vote periods, Sesameseed had 494,177,142 votes while BitGuild, Tron-ONE, and BeatZCoin had 423.372 million, 410.206 million and 368.471 million votes respectively. The reason for the switch remains unknown, but many users in the space have speculated as to what the reasons may be. Cryptoworld, a cryptocurrency enthusiast, replied to Lederman’s tweet by saying:

“The reason is simple, if Binance remains SR with + 50%, the SEC can consider that TRON is not decentralized enough, and it could become a security, which nobody wants here.”

Some users have also speculated that Binance didn’t actually have to free the 12 bullion because they were able to vote without affecting the liquidity of the exchange. Binance had made waves when Tron had announced that the exchange had become its top Super Representative while it added TRX staking support. This September 30 development had occurred after the cryptocurrency exchange acquired over 12 billion votes in the Super Representative elections.

Binance was also in the news recently when it added an XRP pegged coin to its fold. The XRP-BF2 will be the new token that users will be able to utilize for instant swapping with no hiccups. Binance has stated that it has minted a whopping 10 million XRP-BF2 for the DEX.
