Beyond Transactions: How Sun Wukong Creates a Value Loop for SUN with "Real Money"

The competition among decentralized contract exchanges has entered a heated stage. In the early days, Hyperliquid's "airdrop wealth effect" sparked a surge of interaction with decentralized contract exchanges; subsequently, various platforms launched their tokens for TGE, and the influx of funds into the new narrative once drove a general rise in the sector. However, as the market cooled, these wealth effects gradually faded, and the focus of competition began to shift towards underlying capabilities such as liquidity, depth, and capital efficiency. Nevertheless, optimizing these underlying capabilities empowers the user trading experience but does not directly provide value to users in the short term, nor does it create wealth effects for them.

With the early benefits disappearing, even the leading players in the sector cannot escape user attrition. Therefore, to maintain a foothold in the market, it is essential to genuinely implement measures that can reward users.

Sun Wukong creates real value for SUN through buyback and burn

As a latecomer in the decentralized contract sector, the Sun Wukong platform has demonstrated remarkable growth momentum in just two months, thanks to a precise and differentiated combination of strategies. By offering zero Gas fees and the lowest trading rates in the network, it directly addresses the biggest pain points for high-frequency traders; at the same time, leveraging the robust ecosystem of TRON, it provides a wealth of high-yield investment options, establishing a strong foundation for user retention.

The recently launched "trading mining" limited-time event marks a shift in its strategy from mere product optimization to proactive value creation. This event features: full refund of transaction fees + additional SUN token rewards (maker reward ratio of 110%, taker reward ratio of 107%). Not only does it stimulate trading activity with real monetary incentives, but it also deeply ties the platform's fee income to the value growth of the ecological token SUN. By publicly committing to use the income for buybacks and burning SUN, Sun Wukong is transforming a short-term market activity into a powerful engine driving the long-term, positive cycle of its ecological value, fundamentally injecting sustainable value expectations into SUN.

You can imagine a clear chain of events:

You make a trade on the Sun Wukong platform and pay an extremely low transaction fee.

The platform pools this fee income to buy SUN tokens on the open market.

The purchased SUN tokens are immediately sent to a burn address.

As trading continues, the buyback and burn mechanism keeps the total supply of SUN consistently decreasing, and the scarcity directly catalyzes the value increase of SUN. This greatly enhances the sense of belonging and confidence among holders, binding the interests of users, the platform, and the token more deeply.

As of now, according to its official data, the number of SUN tokens repurchased is 2,140,286.

Dual empowerment: from user retention to ecological trust

In the short term, the high incentives from Sun Wukong have attracted a massive influx of traders, solidifying the liquidity depth of designated trading pairs and directly boosting the platform's contract trading volume. According to data from DeFiLlama, in November, Sun Wukong's contract trading volume reached $9.078 billion, a 271% increase from October.

In the medium term, users transition from "arbitrageurs" to "habitual users" through high-frequency trading, which helps the platform accumulate real liquidity and trading depth.

In the long term, when users realize that each trade contributes to the deflation of the SUN token, their role will elevate from "platform users" to "ecological co-builders." This deep binding of interests and sense of belonging is the best strategy to resist user attrition.

Therefore, paying attention to SUN is not just about monitoring the price fluctuations of a token; it represents a trend: after the clamor of traffic and narratives, only those projects that can clearly and fairly return growth dividends to users will be able to traverse cycles and build a truly solid moat.
