TRON ($TRX ) has confidently strengthened its position as the main blockchain platform for stablecoin transfers. According to the latest research, in 35 out of 50 analyzed countries, the TRON network is used most frequently for operations with USDT, USDC, and other stablecoins. The geographic coverage is impressive — Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
Why TRON?
Low fees. The average fee in the TRON network for transferring USDT is around $0.01, making it extremely attractive for users from low-income countries.
Transaction speed. The blockchain processes thousands of transactions per second, which is important for micropayments.
Availability. Support from most global exchanges and wallets facilitates conversion and access to liquidity.
Ease of implementation. For local exchanges and fintech startups, TRON becomes a convenient choice due to its ready-made infrastructure.
Geo-economic significance
Asia. The Philippines, Vietnam, and Indonesia actively use TRON for migrant remittances home.
Africa. In Nigeria and Ghana, TRON has effectively become the 'people's standard' for bypassing currency restrictions.
Latin America. In Venezuela and Argentina, TRON-based stablecoins help the population protect themselves from hyperinflation.
Impact on the cryptocurrency market
The growth in the use of TRON as a platform for stablecoins means:
Strengthening the role of USDT on TRC-20 in the global crypto economy.
Potential pressure on competing networks (Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana).
Increasing the strategic value of TRON in the global cross-border payment system.
Risks
Despite its successes, TRON faces a number of challenges:
Regulatory barriers. The increase in transfer volumes inevitably attracts the attention of financial regulators.
Competition. Solana and Layer-2 solutions of Ethereum are gradually closing the gap in speed and fees.
Dependence on stablecoins. More than 90% of activity on the network is related to transfers of $USDT , making the ecosystem vulnerable to regulatory decisions of Tether.
