On April 16, at the TEAMZ Web3/AI Summit 2025 held in Tokyo, TRON made a high-profile appearance as a title sponsor, showcasing its strong strength in the global stablecoin payment field. This was TRON's first appearance at an international conference after breaking through 300 million global accounts, attracting much attention from the industry. TRON community ambassador Sam Elfarra delivered a keynote speech on the 'Future of the Decentralized Economy', elaborating on how TRON is promoting the global payment system towards a more efficient and inclusive new era through stablecoin applications.
In his speech, Elfarra pointed out that the high costs and inefficiencies of cross-border payments in the traditional financial system severely restrict the liquidity of global business, especially in emerging markets. With extremely low transaction fees and instant settlement, TRON is reshaping this pattern. By staking TRX to gain energy and bandwidth, users can achieve nearly zero-cost on-chain transfers, breaking the shackles of the previous 2%-4% credit card fees and 1-5 days of bank transfer times.
As of April 16, the circulation scale of stablecoins on the TRON chain has approached 70 billion USD, with an average of 8 million transactions per day and over 3 million daily active addresses, making it one of the largest and most active stablecoin payment networks in the world. This series of impressive data not only reflects the continuous progress of TRON's technology and ecosystem but also demonstrates the strong market demand for decentralized payment solutions.
It is particularly noteworthy that Elfarra emphasized the huge potential of TRON in emerging markets such as Africa. Data shows that the traditional financial system incurs approximately 10 billion USD in high costs for commercial transactions in Africa each year, while stablecoin payments can reduce costs by over 11%, significantly enhancing corporate profits and market vitality. TRON provides valuable financial inclusion opportunities for Africa and other underdeveloped regions through a borderless and low-cost payment network, contributing to local economic growth.
As the founder of TRON, Justin Sun foresaw the stablecoin and cross-border payment track several years ago. He proposed that blockchain technology and stablecoins will become the core driving forces for the future development of the global payment system. Now, through TRON's technological innovation and global implementation, Sun's vision is gradually becoming a reality.
In the future, TRON will continue to deepen the application of stablecoin payments, expand more business scenarios, further lower the threshold for cross-border transfers, and accelerate the spread of the global decentralized economy. As Sam Elfarra said at the end of his speech, the revolution of blockchain payments has begun, and TRON is willing to work together with global partners to open a more open, transparent, and efficient financial new era.
