TRON Defies the Dip — USDT Surge and On-Chain Metrics Point to Strength
The entire market value of the crypto market as a whole fell by 2.7% in the last 24 hours, however TRON (TRX) went up. TRX went up 0.6% in the same time period, bringing its current price to $0.2788.
When you look at the week as a whole, TRON has gone up 2.4%, which is a lot more than most other large assets in a market that isn't very hot. On-chain experts that look for deeper indications in the TRON ecosystem have seen this change.
According to Darkfost, an analyst at CryptoQuant, TRON's long-term pricing history shows that it is becoming more stable and less likely to be affected by dramatic price swings.
Lower drawdowns show that the market is maturing
Darkfost wrote a recent article called "TRX Drawdowns Highlight Growing Resilience" in which he used drawdown research to show that TRON has gotten more stable over time.
He said that drawdown indicators, which show the highest and lowest points in an asset's price, might help you find good times to enter the market.
Darkfost pointed up four big TRX drawdown times since 2020: a 61% loss in March 2020, a 70% reduction in June 2021, a 55% drop in January 2022, and a 40% dip in January 2025. There were big recoveries after each of these adjustment stages.
The expert, on the other hand, sees the fact that the downturn depth has been becoming less with each cycle as a sign that investors are becoming more confident and keeping their money in the TRON network.
Darkfost said, "With TRX now trading around $0.27, each of these drawdowns has turned out to be a good investment in hindsight." He also said that the pattern shows that TRON is becoming a more solid asset class with a better position in the market.
The steady flow of money and the expanding use of the ecosystem, especially for stablecoin transactions, are helping to keep things stable. TRON is now the main layer for Tether (USDT) transactions, and evidence from CryptoQuant analyst Maartunn backs this up.
TRON beats Ethereum in stablecoin settlement
On June 25, 2025, Maartunn said that TRON handled a record $23.4 billion in daily USDT transactions, which was the most the network has ever seen. This amount is far more than the $9.9 billion that Ethereum handled on the same day, which shows how different the two blockchains are.
Maartunn said that TRON has been better than Ethereum in moving USDT since the middle of 2022 and that the distance between the two networks is getting bigger. He stated, "The chart doesn't just show a record; it shows how TRON and Ethereum are getting farther apart."
Ethereum's USDT activity has dropped almost 39% from its high in November 2024, whereas TRON is still going up. This change means that TRON will become more important as the primary settlement layer for Tether transactions, while Ethereum seems to be moving toward alternative uses.
