Justin Sun Plans TRON Fee Adjustments as TRX Price Rises
Tron plans to adjust network fees as rising TRX prices increase transaction costs
TRX shows strength against major altcoins, outperforming ETH, XRP, and SOL
Tron remains a key player in DeFi with $6.2B TVL, ranking fifth overall
Tron is making major moves to maintain its position in the crypto space. From lowering fees to keep transactions affordable to leading in stablecoins and attracting big investors, the network is showing real momentum.
Let’s take a closer look at how these moves are shaping its growth and appeal.
Rising TRX Prices Trigger Fee Adjustments
Justin Sun, Tron’s founder, recently highlighted that rising TRX prices during the bull market are driving up transaction fees. The Tron Super Representatives are closely monitoring the situation, and Tron will adjust its network fees.
The goal is to keep the blockchain efficient and competitive and ensure that transactions remain affordable for users.
This is not the first time he has flagged the issue. Back in July, when TRX crossed $0.30, Sun urged the community to lower gas fees by either reducing the energy unit price, increasing the energy cap, or encouraging energy staking.
His latest comments show Tron remains focused on keeping transactions affordable.
TRON Outperforms Major Altcoins
Tron is also showing resilience in the market. According to CryptoQuant analysts, TRX/BTC has been outperforming other top altcoins such as ETH, XRP, and SOL.
- TRX/BTC: +2.66% (past week)
- ETH/BTC: Flat
- XRP/BTC: Down
- SOL/BTC: +0.85%
Tron is currently trading at $0.3518, up 0.7% in the last 24 hours.
Institutional Activity on the Rise
Big money is flowing into Tron. Since 2022, transfers of $100,000 or more make up 61% of all USDT volume, while small transactions under $1,000 account for just 2%.
This shows Tron’s growing pull among institutional players.
Stablecoin Leadership Secured
Tron also wasted no time capitalizing on new U.S. stablecoin regulations. After the GENIUS Act passed on July 18, 2025, Tron quickly minted $1B in USDT, bringing its total to over $83B. Tron now hosts roughly 51% of all USDT, securing its lead in stablecoin infrastructure.
Kraken and Backed Finance also announced expanding their xStocks tokenized stock offering to the Tron blockchain as real-world asset (RWA) tokenization gains momentum.
