The Tron network is preparing for a landmark change, as founder Justin Sun confirmed a 60% fee reduction—the largest in the network’s history. The new fee structure will take effect on Saturday, August 30, 2025, at 8 PM ET (5:30 AM IST), signaling a bold step to strengthen Tron’s competitiveness in the blockchain space.
On August 26, 2025, the Tron Super Representative community proposed to reduce Tron network fees by 60%. This is the largest fee reduction since the founding of the Tron network. The proposal has already passed and will take effect at 20:00 (GMT+8) this Friday!

Here’s my view on…
Details of the Fee Cut
On August 26, Tron’s Super Representative community proposed lowering energy unit costs from 210 sun to 100 sun. This affects a wide range of network activities, including TRC20 token transfers, smart contract execution, and stablecoin transactions. The proposal quickly gained approval and will officially take effect on Friday evening.
By making the network significantly cheaper to use, Tron aims to attract more developers, businesses, and retail users. The move is seen as a direct push to increase adoption and expand the ecosystem’s transaction volume.
Justin Sun’s Three Key Points
Justin Sun outlined three major takeaways from the fee reduction:
- User Benefits – The lower costs make Tron far more affordable compared to other blockchains, enhancing its appeal to retail and institutional users.
- Short-Term Impact vs. Long-Term Growth – While the fee cut may reduce profits in the near term, Sun believes higher transaction activity will offset losses and strengthen long-term revenue.
- Ongoing Adjustments – Tron’s Super Representatives will reassess the fees every three months, making adjustments based on TRX price movements and overall ecosystem needs.
Growing Interest in Tron Stablecoins
The timing of this fee reduction is particularly notable as Tron’s stablecoins, including USD1, have seen rising adoption and trading activity. Lower costs are expected to drive even more stablecoin usage, reinforcing Tron’s position as one of the leading blockchain networks for payments and DeFi applications.
