TRON Tops Fee Charts Ahead of Solana and Ethereum
TRON generated $51.7 million in April, ranking first among all blockchains by fee volume, as reported by Cointelegraph. Hyperliquid followed with $42.9 million, while Solana trailed at $36.9 million. Ethereum posted $21.0 million, and Bitcoin came in at $15.4 million during the same period.
The gap between TRON and Hyperliquid stood at $8.8 million, marking a significant lead over both legacy and emerging chains. Combined, TRON, Hyperliquid, and Solana accounted for $131.5 million in fees. Ethereum and Bitcoin together contributed $36.4 million, less than TRON alone.
BNB Chain finished sixth with $14.9 million in fees, only $0.5 million short of Bitcoin’s total. Base ranked seventh with $3.7 million, followed by Axelar ($1.4M), Sui ($1.2M), and Arbitrum ($1.1M). These four chains contributed just $7.4 million collectively.
TRON Hits 10B Cumulative Transactions with 8.4M Daily Count
TRON surpassed 10.2 billion lifetime transactions in early 2025, with average daily volume reaching 8.4 million. Multi reported that approximately 80% of these transactions involved stablecoin transfers, especially USDT, which TRON hosts in the largest supply globally.
The report emphasized TRON’s near-zero transaction cost model using bandwidth and energy mechanics, a contrast to Ethereum’s fluctuating gas fees. Strategic goals continue to focus on cost-efficient DeFi use and real-world payments, supporting high-frequency activity across the chain.
This shift in direction has important implications for network scalability and stablecoin dominance across the crypto sector. TRON’s ability to handle high volumes while maintaining low fees enhances its competitive positioning. It is important to note a contrasting perspective regarding regulatory concerns tied to founder Justin Sun.
Another critical factor to consider is TRON’s resilience during recent network stress events. According to CoinMarketCap, a social engineering hack in April was neutralized quickly. Fraudulent funds were frozen, and security protocols were enhanced shortly after the breach.
