TRON Overtakes Ethereum in USDT Market: New Era of Stablecoin Dominance
In 2025, TRON successfully made history by surpassing Ethereum in the total supply of USDT in circulation.
Based on information we quoted from Beincrypto media, the supply of USDT on the TRON network reached US$75.8 billion, surpassing Ethereum which previously dominated the stablecoin market.
This surge reflects the increasing adoption of TRON for payment and remittance needs, especially among retail users.
With low transaction fees and fast transaction processing capabilities, TRON is now the main choice for large stablecoin transfers.
TRON Transactions Soar, Leaving Ethereum Behind
Throughout 2025, TRON recorded more than 283 million USDT transfers, with a daily volume reaching a record US$23.7 billion.
In comparison, Ethereum only posted an average daily volume of US$10.5 billion, down 37% from its peak in late 2024.
This data confirms TRON’s position as the leading network for stablecoin transactions, both in terms of frequency and volume.

Challenges and Opportunities Ahead
Despite its success in dominating the stablecoin market, TRON still faces challenges, especially from Ethereum, which continues to dominate the DeFi sector and institutional adoption.
