Stablecoins have emerged as the most prominent product in the crypto space.
@trondao is at the forefront, leading in every aspect and demonstrating real-world applications.
Today, we delve deeper beyond the metrics.
Let's dive in. 🧵
► Stablecoin Landscape
Stablecoins have emerged as one of the fastest-growing sectors in crypto, as shown by these metrics:
✧ All-time high: $261B+ market cap
✧ $USDT from @Tether_to leads with a $164B market cap, representing 61.8% (3.61% MoM growth) and commanding 71.3% of the total stablecoin trading volume
✧ $USDC from @circle follows with a $63.6B market cap and a 15.1% trading share
✧ Other stablecoins like @ethena_labs - $USDe and @SkyEcosystem - $USDS also showing significant growth.

► USDT x @trondao
TRON itself already solidified itself as the leading stablecoin blockchain, with:
✧ 50% total USDT supply circulated on TRON
✧ ATH stablecoin marketcap of $81.9B as of July 28, 2025
✧ USDT accounts 98% of this marketcap

► Why TRON?
The rise in stablecoin usage on TRON is no coincidence.
@paoloardoino highlighted that 40% of all blockchain fees are paid for sending USDT, including transactions through @trondao.
ICYMI, TRON has introduced gas-free $USDT transfers along with low gas fees.
It's important to recognize that millions in emerging markets rely on $USDT to protect against inflation and the devaluation of their local currencies.
40% of all blockchain fees are paid to send USDt 🤯
That's across 9 chains: ETH, Tron, TON, Solana, BSC, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Polygon & Optimism.
Hundreds of millions of people in emerging markets use Tether's digital dollar USDt daily, to protect their families from local inflation and devaluation of their national currencies.
Blockchains that will focus on lower gas fees, allowing paying these in USDt will take over the world.
❷ Bruna uses USDT as her payment method from employers, eliminating waiting times and avoiding banks that withhold funds.
This is how decentralized money should help improve people's lives.
❸ Consider Sebastian, who now accepts USDT via @trondao for his co-working space business.
This change not only benefits the users but also helps business owners scale their operations and build resilience against the volatility of their local currency.
Can I just send it in USDT?
That one question changed everything for Sebastian.
It wasn't just about convenience, but about a shift to a faster, simpler, and cheaper payment system.
Now, its coworking space in Buenos Aires accepts @Tether_to in @TronDao_ESP, a decision driven by the growing community of travelers and locals who rely on #TRON every day.
Because once you experience a system based on collective trust, there's no going back.
► Wrap-Up
TRON is currently the leading stablecoin chain, achieving impressive milestones across the board.
However, if you think @trondao is solely about stablecoins, you're mistaken.
