Zero-Fee USDT Transactions on Tron
Tether’s USDT stablecoin is set to introduce commission-free transactions on the Tron blockchain, according to Tron founder Justin Sun’s recent post on X. The Gas Free feature will allow USDT transfers without requiring TRX tokens for gas fees, making transactions more accessible. Sun invited wallets and projects to integrate the feature through JustLend, which happens to be Tron’s official lending platform.
Tron has been known for its low-cost USDT transfers compared to Ethereum, but recent data shows it has become one of the most expensive networks for USDT, with gas fees ranging between $3.06 and $6.22 – significantly higher than Ethereum’s $0.14 fees. As such, the new Gas Free feature aims to restore Tron’s position as a cost-effective stablecoin network by eliminating the need for users to hold TRX for transactions.
