TRON Leads with $700B in USDT Transfers as Whale Transactions Surge

TRON recorded $694.54 billion in USDT transfers in May 2025, the highest ever, with whales contributing the majority of that volume.

Around 59% of May’s USDT volume on TRON came from transactions exceeding $1 million, totaling over $411.2 billion in large transfers.

With $75.7 billion USDT on TRC-20, TRON now holds the largest share of stablecoins among all blockchain networks worldwide.

TRON has reached a new all-time high in USDT transfers, recording nearly $700 billion in activity during May 2025. The volume was driven primarily by large-scale transactions, reflecting growing adoption and use of stablecoins on the network.

Whale Activity Dominates USDT Transfers

According to a recent update from CryptoQuant, TRON processed $694.54 billion worth of USDT in May alone. Of this, 59% came from transactions exceeding $1 million, totaling $411.2 billion. This indicates whales are responsible for the majority of TRON’s USDT movement.

A tweet by Cryptoquant_com featured insights by @JA_Maartun, confirming that this volume marks the highest ever recorded on the TRON network. These large transfers suggest continued interest from institutions and high-net-worth individuals using TRON for stablecoin transactions.

The consistent presence of such high-value transfers positions TRON as a preferred choice for large-scale USDT transactions in 2025.

TRON Holds the Largest Share of Stablecoins

TRON has now been the leader in all other blockchains by total stablecoin value held on chain. TRC-20 USDT is at $75.7 billion, surpassing the value of Ethereum USDT (ERC-20) which is at $71.4 billion. Other USDT formats continue to support the USDT ecosystem with $4.1 billion, and USDC total across chains is $60.6 billion.

This breakdown indicates a growing shift toward the TRON network as a hub for stablecoin usage. Its cost-efficiency and scalability appear to support the increasing minting activity and transfer volume.

So far in 2025, TRON has witnessed 17 mints of over $1 billion USDT each. These high-value mints further emphasize the network’s role in facilitating large-scale stablecoin issuance.

On-Chain Activity Surges with USDT Adoption

TRON has successfully processed over 10.5 billion transactions, indicating sustained growth in the activity of users and usage of the network. This transaction count also demonstrates TRON's ability to handle a large number of transactions, while remaining stable.

The surge in USDT usage and the rise in large-value mints are mirrored by increased network traffic. This growth suggests that more users and entities are relying on TRON to move and hold stablecoins.

The latest data points to continued momentum for TRON as the primary channel for USDT transfers in the stablecoin market.
