Geneva, Switzerland, September 23, 2026 — TRON DAO, a community-governed organization focused on speeding up internet decentralization through decentralized applications (dApps) and blockchain technology, announced today that the total transaction volume settled on its network has cleared $30 trillion. This major milestone stems from the blockchain’s low fees, high throughput, and robust liquidity, cementing TRON as a preferred global settlement layer for digital asset activity, stablecoin transfers, and everyday payments.
To date, TRON has registered more than 405 million user accounts, exceeding 15 billion total transactions and posting over $28 billion in total value locked (TVL). It also maintains a circulating USDT supply of more than $94 billion, representing the largest supply on any blockchain network. Data from Token Terminal indicates that TRON leads all networks in year-to-date USDT transfer volume at roughly $6 trillion, maintaining a daily transfer volume averaging $25 billion.
This growth is similarly fueling consumer payments. CoinDesk Research figures show that crypto payment card volumes climbed from $2 billion in the first quarter of 2026 to $2.4 billion in the second. Over that timeframe, TRON’s share increased from 33% to 34%, marking the highest proportion of any tracked chain and highlighting its dominance in consumer-to-business transactions and merchant acceptance via Visa-linked stablecoin cards.
“TRON has moved $30 trillion since launch, a scale comparable to the annual output of the U.S. economy in 2025. Crossing $30 trillion in total transaction volume is proof that TRON has become an essential infrastructure for the digital dollar economy,” said Justin Sun, founder of TRON. “Every trillion dollars that moves across TRON represents real people relying on stablecoins for payments, savings, and everyday transactions. TRON was built to support accessible, scalable digital financial infrastructure, and this milestone reflects the continued growth of that mission.”
Institutional pathways to TRON have expanded in tandem with the network’s broader adoption. Canary Capital introduced the Canary Staked TRX ETF in September 2026 under the ticker TRXS. Furthermore, regulated US derivatives exchange Bitnomial added spot and futures products for TRX, expanding official market access. Anchorage Digital bolstered support for the network by offering native TRX custody and staking for TRC-20 assets through its regulated setup, while Securitize issued the Tokenized Hamilton Lane SCOPE Fund as the inaugural asset of its kind on TRON.
In addition, TRON placed among the top five protocols featured in the newly introduced S&P Pantera Digital Asset Index. Created by Pantera Capital and S&P Dow Jones Indices, the index utilizes evaluation criteria focused on protocol utility, network activity, and onchain liquidity. This rollout represents a clear indicator that traditional financial assessment frameworks—historically reserved for equities and standard asset classes—are expanding to encompass blockchain networks.
TRON’s $30 trillion volume milestone highlights the network’s expanding capacity as stablecoin settlement and blockchain-based transactions continue to scale. Backed by growing traction across institutional markets, digital assets, and payments, TRON remains foundational infrastructure for onchain value transfer.
