Original source: TRON
Recently, according to the latest data from Tether's official website, the issuance of USDT on the TRON network has surpassed $75.7 billion, officially exceeding the total issuance of Ethereum, accounting for more than half of the total market value of USDT. After a six-month interval, it has once again topped the list of the world's largest USDT issuing public chains. This historic milestone further solidifies TRON's absolute dominance in the stablecoin sector and adds a key note to the blockchain empire of its founder, Justin Sun.
This is also a milestone moment for TRON following its global user accounts surpassing 300 million and the submission of a listing application for its native token TRX's spot ETF to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Justin Sun, the founder of TRON, stated, "Currently, 50.2% of the total supply of USDT is on the TRON network. Although the 0.2% above 50% may seem like a small number, we can now say that more than half of the USDT is on the TRON network. Keep pushing, the goal of $100 billion is not a dream, it's a forecast!"
TRON Reaches New Heights: Achievements Reflect Market Choice
Since mid-2023, the issuance of USDT on TRON has been continuously growing, expanding rapidly at a rate of over $1 billion per month. In just the first half of 2025, the TRON network minted new USDT worth over $16 billion.
On May 15, 2025, the total circulation of USDT on the TRON chain officially surpassed Ethereum, reclaiming the title of the world's largest USDT issuing network. Although Ethereum had a brief lead in the past six months, the market ultimately demonstrated its preference for TRON through actual actions. With low transaction fees, fast settlement speeds, and stable network performance, TRON has become the preferred stablecoin settlement platform for global users and institutions.
At the beginning of May, the Trump family's cryptocurrency project, World Liberty Financial, announced the integration of its USD1 stablecoin into the TRON network, further enhancing this momentum. This move not only expanded the stablecoin ecosystem of TRON but also brought more liquidity and a larger user base.
Data shows that TRON is a clear leader in the payment settlement field. Its average daily transaction volume reaches 8 million transactions, with an average daily transaction amount exceeding $25 billion, far surpassing other public chains. Additionally, the trading volume on TRON's decentralized exchange increased by 40% in April 2025, soaring from $3.4 billion to $4.9 billion, demonstrating the strong momentum of its ecosystem. These figures not only highlight TRON's dominance in the stablecoin sector but also underscore its core position in decentralized finance (DeFi) and blockchain infrastructure development.
Justin Sun and TRON: Once Again Showcasing Chinese Blockchain Strength
As the founder of TRON, Justin Sun has led the platform from an emerging public chain to a leader in the global blockchain industry with his keen market insight and relentless spirit of innovation. The recent surpassing of Ethereum in USDT issuance is not only a victory for TRON but also a global recognition of the strength of Chinese blockchain.
As a pioneer with rich experience in the blockchain field, he frequently speaks at major blockchain summits and forums, sharing TRON's development philosophy and future vision. Justin Sun firmly believes that blockchain technology will profoundly change the global economic landscape, and he is committed to making TRON a cornerstone of global financial infrastructure. Through continuous innovation and technological upgrades, TRON has made significant progress in performance, security, and scalability, providing global users with more convenient, efficient, and secure blockchain services.
It is worth mentioning that Justin Sun not only focuses on technological innovation but also actively promotes industry compliance and development. In September 2024, TRON, along with Tether and TRM Labs, established the T3 Financial Crimes Unit (T3 FCU), successfully freezing over $150 million in criminal assets, demonstrating its commitment to global financial security. Additionally, at the 2025 Hong Kong Crypto Finance Forum, Justin Sun proposed an innovative idea for issuing TRON addresses for AI, paving a new path for the integration of blockchain and artificial intelligence.
The Future of TRON: The Cornerstone of Global Financial Infrastructure
TRON's return to the top is not only a victory in USDT issuance but also a reflection of its ecosystem's comprehensive leadership. As of May 2025, TRON's total transaction volume has surpassed 10.3 billion transactions, with account numbers exceeding 306 million, making it one of the most active blockchain networks globally. Its ultra-low transaction fees stand in stark contrast to Ethereum's high Gas fees, attracting a large number of users to switch from Ethereum to TRON.
Market analysts point out that TRON's success stems from its precise grasp of user needs. Whether it is the payment demands of emerging markets or the rapid expansion of the DeFi ecosystem, TRON provides efficient, low-cost solutions. As CryptoQuant researcher Maartunn stated, "The growth in TRON's USDT issuance reflects its absolute advantage in the stablecoin sector and the high trust of users."
The surpassing of Ethereum in USDT issuance on the TRON chain is a perfect combination of technology, market, and vision, as well as another great achievement for Justin Sun as a leading figure in Chinese blockchain. Under Justin Sun's leadership, TRON has not only become the absolute leader in the stablecoin sector but also a pioneer in global blockchain innovation. In the future, TRON will continue to adopt an open and inclusive approach, working with the global community to build a more secure, efficient, and decentralized financial infrastructure, paving the way for the arrival of the Web3 era.
