The TRON network has achieved a record high of $600 billion in Tether (USDT) transactions, significantly outpacing Ethereum in stablecoin transfer volume. Since January 2022, TRON has consistently recorded higher USDT transaction volumes than Ethereum, thanks to its low-fee, fast confirmation blockchain that appeals especially to users in emerging economies. Monthly USDT transfers on TRON have climbed to around $611 billion across more than 65 million transactions, compared to approximately $300 billion monthly transfer volume on Ethereum.
This surge reflects growing network demand and increasing whale accumulation, which analysts view as bullish indicators for TRON (TRX) price momentum. Whales have been steadily buying TRX near current price levels, suggesting confidence in long-term positioning rather than short-term speculation.
TRON's efficient and cost-effective stablecoin transfer capability is expanding its role as a critical infrastructure for digital money movement, especially in regions where transaction costs are a major concern. While Ethereum remains dominant for NFTs and DeFi applications due to its smart contract flexibility, TRON is becoming the preferred platform for stablecoin-based transfers and payments.
Justin Sun, TRON’s founder, highlighted this milestone and the platform’s strengthening position in the blockchain ecosystem. The network’s sustained utility and whale support might mark a broader revival of TRON’s market interest driven by fundamental usage growth rather than hype cycles.
