The cryptocurrency gave all the right signals in April.

Prices rallied sharply in the run-up to April 15 and remained bid through the month, possibly due to significant interest within the investor community about the platform's expected mainnnet launch.

Tron's near 90-degree rally in April could be associated with the increased interest in the investor community about a coming blockchain upgrade, one that could see Tron finally migrate from ethereum to the long-awaited TRX mainnet.

On April 21, Tron representatives announced a 30 million TRX airdrop to the ethereum community, although it is not clear if the news pushed up TRX prices.

All-time high: $1.33.Opening price on April 1: $0.15.Closing price on April 30: $0.34.Current market price: $0.369254.

While the reasons for smaller crypto market increases might always be somewhat elusive, the coin saw a notable profile boost courtesy of its listing on Houbi - one of the biggest cryptocurrency exchanges - and a notable nod from CNBC, which highlighted the coin for investment.

Further, cryptocurrency exchange Binance added cardano-binance coin and cardano-tether trading pairs on April 19.
