- TRON processes over 2.4 million daily USDT transfers, far surpassing Ethereum’s 284,000.
- USDT supply on TRON grew 27% in 2025, now exceeding Ethereum’s total USDT supply.
You don’t need to be a blockchain expert to see that TRON is increasingly establishing its dominance in the stablecoin world. Just imagine a network that processes millions of transactions every day, almost non-stop, and is the preferred choice for sending USDT. Yes, that’s TRON.
The latest data from CryptoQuant shows that throughout 2025 alone, more than 283 million USDT transfers took place on this network. This figure even illustrates TRON’s increasingly vital role as a payment and settlement layer for stablecoin transactions.
Furthermore, there has been a huge surge in supply. This year, the supply of USDT on the TRON network has grown by around 27%, or roughly $16 billion. The total figure now reaches $75.8 billion, which means… yes, it’s bigger than Ethereum. Previously, Ethereum was home to the largest stablecoin. But now, the throne has changed hands.
TRON Becomes the Go-To Network for USDT Transfers
The daily transfer volume of USDT on TRON has also continued to increase. In 2025, TRON set a new record with $23.7 billion per day. On the other hand, Ethereum actually experienced a decline. Its daily USDT volume dropped by about 37% from its peak in November 2024.
Now, their daily average is around $10.3 billion. In terms of usage, it is clear that TRON is starting to become the main choice for stablecoin users.
But the story is not over yet. In terms of the number of daily transactions, the comparison is even more striking. TRON processes around 2.4 million USDT transactions per day, while Ethereum only processes around 284,000. The difference is mind-blowing. It can be said that TRON is not only fast, but also more friendly for retail users who need cost efficiency.
Interestingly, all this happened even though whale activity on TRON was said to have decreased. However, according to CNF, growth is still driven by retail users and increasing adoption of stablecoins. In fact, TRON’s DeFi sector is still alive, especially through lending protocols and asset bridges that facilitate fund flows and provide passive income opportunities.
Ecosystem Expands With New Partners and Quiet Momentum
Recently, TRON DAO made a breakthrough: they officially replaced WINkLink with Chainlink as their data oracle solution. The effect was immediate—TRON’s TVL jumped by 3.4 billion TRX in less than a week. Now, TRON’s Total Value Locked has reached $6.6 billion. This means that not only USDT is being relied upon, but the entire ecosystem is also growing.
On the other hand, SunPump, a meme coin creation platform on the TRON network, has also attracted attention. On May 19, 2025, they announced a strategic partnership with BingX, one of the major crypto exchanges. The goal? Expanding the reach and building a larger user community for TRON-based projects. This cross-platform partnership seems to open the door wider for TRON adoption among meme coin traders.
And don’t forget one more thing. Justin Sun, the founder of TRON, also caused a stir with a cryptic Japanese post on his social media account on May 18, 2025. His message was simple: “silent progress.”
Many speculated that this was related to a new partnership or development within the TRON ecosystem. Moreover, on-chain data shows TRX accumulation by large wallets, which could be a sign that big players still believe in the future of the network.
Meanwhile, as of press time, TRX is trading at about $0.2722, up 3.85% over the last 24 hours and moving sideways in the last 7 days.
