Tangem and TRON DAO collaboration unveiled
As part of our new collaboration, Tangem will create TRON-branded cards and packaging while supporting more TRON network features in the wallet, which puts Tangem as a special wallet for the TRON community.
Tron-branded Tangem wallets
The TRON-branded Tangem cards incorporate elements of TRON's color scheme and Tangem's wallet design approach. Here’s an overview of these wallets.

One small step for Tangem, one giant leap for Crypto Adoption
Tangem aims to become the TRON community's number-one universal hardware wallet by fully supporting its features and updates. Currently, we are actively working on adding Tron staking, management tools for energy & bandwidth resources, and WalletConnect 2.0, which will allow users to connect to dApps developed on the Tron network.
Our choice to collaborate with TRON in creating hardware wallets is progress for the wider cryptocurrency community. Users benefit from our wallet’s robust security by securing and using their TRX and TRC-20 tokens. Here’s why:
- Eco-friendliness
TRON offers cost-effective, swift, and energy-efficient transactions, contrasting sharply with Bitcoin and Ethereum's high fees.
Additionally, Tangem's hardware wallets promote sustainability by eliminating the need for charging, batteries, and energy consumption, making it a more environmentally conscious choice than other hardware wallet makers.
- Enhanced transaction speed: The TRON network has swift transaction processing capabilities. When combined with the high-speed Tangem wallet app, users can enjoy a seamless and efficient crypto experience, ensuring rapid sending and receiving.
- Real-world utility: In the future, Tangem's hardware wallets could help users make everyday purchases and transactions on the TRON network with their crypto assets.
- Promoting crypto adoption: TRON and Tangem are both driving the mass adoption of cryptocurrencies. TRON offers a swift and cost-effective network for managing transactions and payments, aiming to boost global crypto adoption.
Tangem provides a secure and user-friendly solution for storing and using cryptocurrency. Together, they facilitate easier and more widespread use of digital currencies.
- Community: The collaboration leverages our active communities built on integrity and advanced technology. It bolsters the trustworthiness of TRON's ecosystem, offering users confidence in the security of their assets.
- Brand recognition:
These limited-edition TRON-branded Tangem wallets boost brand recognition for both companies by creating a physical presence for TRON beyond the digital. The wallets serve as walking advertisements, increasing visibility and awareness.
Moreover, this collaboration introduces Tangem's user base to TRON and TRON's community to Tangem, encouraging mutual exploration and engagement.
