A clear trend is emerging in USDT transfers on the TRON network: large-value transactions are increasing, while small retail transactions are declining.
At the beginning of 2023, the total number of transfers stood at around 69 million, and this resistance level has yet to be surpassed in 2025. While the TRON network continues to grow, it appears to be hitting a ceiling in terms of transaction count.
Looking at transaction sizes, transfers of 100 USDT or less (tx_100) peaked in 2023 and have since declined. This drop in small-scale transfers suggests that retail participation on the network is shrinking.
In contrast, transactions of 1,000 USDT or more (tx_1000 and above) have shown steady growth. This indicates that the TRON network is increasingly being used by institutional investors and large capital movers.
With the continued rise in high-value transfers, the network could eventually surpass the 69 million transaction threshold in the future. However, this growth is likely to be driven primarily by institutions and large players, while the retail segment continues to trend downward.
