Tron flips Ethereum in USDT supply amid growing on-chain activity

Tron has officially surpassed Ethereum in total circulating USDT, marking a major shift in the stablecoin space. According to a May 12 post by CryptoQuant contributor Maartunn, on May 6, Tron’s ( TRX ) USDT supply reached $73.8 billion, exceeding Ethereum’s ( ETH ) $71.9 billion. Tron is now leading in USDT issuance for the first time after almost two years of steady growth, propelled by cheap fees, quick settlement times, and a stable network. TRON $73.8B USDT Supply Overtakes Ethereum’s USDT Supply “For the first time ever, the total supply of USDT on TRON (TRC-20) surged past that on Ethereum (ERC-20), reaching $73.8B versus $71.9B.” – By @JA_Maartun pic.twitter.com/wuhj8HFPEb — CryptoQuant.com (@cryptoquant_com) May 12, 2025 Since mid-2023, Tron’s growth has been consistent. The TRC-20 network has become the preferred choice for large-scale Tether ( USDT ) transactions, with more than $14 billion worth of new USDT being minted on the network in just the first half of 2025. It has gained popularity among decentralized finance users, traders, and businesses due to its low transaction fees, quick block finality, and reliable uptime. In contrast, Ethereum’s USDT growth has stabilized. Users are now switching to less costly options like Tron or Layer-2 solutions because of high gas prices and slower settlement. As a result, even though Ethereum was the original home of USDT, it has begun to lose ground in the stablecoin space.
