Tether’s $1 billion USDT transfer to the Tron network in January 2025 aimed to boost liquidity, potentially increasing TRX demand for transaction fees.
While exact price data post-transfer is unclear, TRX hovered around $0.22-$0.24 in early 2025, showing no dramatic spike, suggesting the market may have anticipated the move.
The transfer likely had a neutral to positive effect, though its immediate price impact appears limited.
Impact of the Stablecoin Bill Review
The U.S. Congressional review of the GENIUS Act, passed by the Senate Banking Committee in March 2025, seeks to regulate stablecoins with federal and state oversight.
This could benefit TRX by providing regulatory clarity for USDT on Tron, potentially boosting short-term momentum if sentiment remains positive.
However, strict rules might raise operational costs for Tether, indirectly pressuring TRX’s price and Tron’s appeal.
TRX’s Role in the Stablecoin Ecosystem
TRX underpins Tron, a major blockchain for USDT, handling a significant share of stablecoin transactions due to low fees and high speed.
The Tether transfer reinforces Tron’s position, while favorable regulations could solidify its ecosystem role, increasing TRX’s utility.
Conversely, restrictive policies might challenge Tron’s attractiveness, affecting TRX’s long-term relevance in the stablecoin space.
