Tron network fees were cut by 60% after a vote by the Tron Super Representative community, lowering average transaction costs significantly from recent highs and making TRX transfers and stablecoin payments notably cheaper for users across DeFi and payments use cases.
60% fee reduction approved by Tron Super Representatives
Average transaction costs fell from about $1.70 (recent) and peaked at $2.50 in December.
Stablecoin supply on Tron exceeds $82 billion, making lower fees materially relevant to users and DeFi flows.

The Tron Super Representative community proposed the cut on August 26, 2025, and the proposal passed. Justin Sun, founder of Tron, announced the change publicly, calling the reduction “bold and rare” while noting it will likely reduce short-term network revenue but boost long-term usage.
The fee cut makes on-chain payments and DeFi activity cheaper immediately. Tron is a major settlement layer for stablecoins such as USDT and USDC; with over $82 billion of stablecoins on Tron (DeFi Llama data), lower fees reduce friction for high-volume transfers and DeFi operations.
Lower fees directly reduce the cost of moving stablecoins and executing DeFi transactions, making small-value payments and high-frequency operations more viable. For payment rails and decentralized exchanges that route stablecoins on Tron, a 60% reduction materially improves unit economics.
