Tron Surges to 51% of USDT Circulation After GENIUS Act, Minting $1B in USDT

By Arslan Tabish | Edited By Ammar Raza,August 7, 2025, 11:30 PM

Tron
  • The GENIUS Act brings transparency to the regulation of stablecoins, which can improve adoption and trust in the market by institutions.
  • Tron now hosts 51% of the USDT supply, solidifying its role as the leading platform for stablecoin settlements.
  • Tron’s token-burning strategy and low fees make it a major player in the digital dollar economy and DeFi space.

The GENIUS Act, the first payment of the stablecoin based on a federal regulation, was enacted by the U.S. Congress on July 18, 2025. The law has its center on consumer protection, balanced leisure, monetary soundness, and anti-money laundering (AML) conformity. This law already lays the groundwork for the limited application of dollar-backed stablecoins, such as the USDT, and gives a guide to new institutions and customers upon entering the market.

Following the introduction of the GENIUS Act, Tron took a significant step in the stablecoin competition. Shortly after that law went into effect, a USDT was issued on the Tron network to the tune of $1 billion.

Tron Surpasses 51% USDT Supply

This increased the entire circulating supply of USDT on Tron to more than $83 billion. A CryptoQuant analyst revealed that Tron currently distributes a total supply of $163 billion, or approximately 51% of the total USDT in circulation.

This expansion further confirms Tron as the most dominant infrastructure when it comes to the stable settlement of coins. By passing the GENIUS Act, not only will stablecoins be legitimized, but also their use will be sped up. 

Regulatory certainty also implies that institutions and consumers now have more confidence in entering the marketplace. The adoption growth will raise the usage of USDT and other stablecoin issuances, especially in the TRX network.

Tron’s Gains Surge as Token Burn Boosts Confidence

According to analysis provided by Glassnode, the realized gains of TRX are the second highest year to date. The higher realized gains were $665 million and $337 million for Bitcoin and Ethereum, respectively. The profits exceeded almost $1 billion in five days. The Net Realized Profit/Loss ratio has reached 1.04, indicating a cautious optimism in the market.

Another factor behind the recent price resurgence of TRX is its continuous strategy of burning tokens. Up to now, 40 billion TRX tokens have been burned on the network, making its total supply scarcer in size. 

In August, TRX incinerated 166 million tokens, which is approximately 1/10 of the quantity burned in July, and it shows a steady policy of attempting to control token supply since the beginning of the year.

This burn and income from transaction fees have made cryptocurrency one of the leaders in the stablecoin market. The USDT is part of the top stablecoins that use the Tron chain, which brings in an annual fee score of about $7.57 billion. Such superiority puts Tron in a leadership position in the digital asset sphere and reinforces its presence in the future of decentralized finance (DeFi).

With the demand of stablecoins persistently increasing, the role that platform can play in the stablecoin sphere can only be expanded. The scalability of the network, low fees, and its aggressive policy to reduce its supply are the factors that can position it as a dominant force in the digital dollar economy.
