What TRON is and how it works
TRON is a blockchain founded by Justin Sun in 2017, with TRX as its native token. A large amount of USDT circulates on TRON, making TRC-20 a common network for stablecoin transfers.
It uses delegated proof of stake with 27 Super Representatives producing blocks; transaction costs are measured in bandwidth and energy, which can be obtained by staking TRX.
TRX supply and token economics
TRX has no fixed cap: ongoing issuance is partly offset by fee burning, so net supply changes with network usage.
What usually moves the price
Demand for USDT transfers, founder- and ecosystem-related news, and activity in DeFi and the energy-rental market.
These are commonly discussed factors, not a forecast; no single factor guarantees direction.
Where to buy TRX
TRX spot pairs are usually listed on large exchanges such as Binance, OKX, Bybit, Bitget and Gate, but pairs and availability depend on your region and account—check the official listing. Compare fees at the same volume, then check spread and slippage.
Key TRX risks
When sending USDT on TRC-20, check the network and address carefully—the wrong network may be unrecoverable—and beware of USDT-approval scams.
Only use money you can afford to lose entirely, and size positions and liquidation prices before using leverage.
