46% of the total TRX supply has been staked, and the demand for energy on the TRON network has significantly increased.

Currently, 4.38 billion TRX have been staked, accounting for 46% of the total TRX supply. This data indicates an increasing level of community participation, which helps to enhance network security and operational efficiency. Staking TRX is not only used for electing super representatives but also provides bandwidth and energy for users and DApps, thereby reducing transaction costs and making TRON more attractive for DeFi and stablecoin transfers.

It is worth noting that currently over half (2.43 billion, accounting for 55%) of the staked TRX has been completed through the Stake 2.0 model. This model was launched in 2023 and aims to improve flexibility, transparency, and the DApp user experience.

The amount of TRX staked for acquiring energy has increased by 129% in the past year, rising from 7.5 billion to 17.2 billion. This reflects the growing demand for smart contract execution and also suggests the possibility of a "zero gas fee" user experience, meaning users can complete transactions without needing to freeze or hold TRX.

The TRON network is becoming increasingly active: bandwidth usage has increased by 50% year-on-year, and energy usage has grown by 167%. Over 80% of network resource consumption comes from staked TRX, proving that TRON's resource incentive model is working to encourage users and DApps to stake TRX to reduce transaction costs.

Additionally, the energy expenses paid by smart contract deployers to subsidize user transaction fees have also increased significantly, growing by 1,577% in the past year to 3.19 billion. Currently, about 95% of energy consumption on the TRON network comes from USDT transfers, indicating that this stablecoin remains the core of the TRON ecosystem.
