TRON has doubled in price this year. But let’s be honest: it only lives because of Tether. Now Tether & Circle are launching their own blockchains. When that happens, TRON has nothing left.
TRON today = just a payment rail for USDT.
No DeFi. No dev ecosystem. USDC already left.
Take away Tether -> TRON joins EOS in the graveyard.
Even TRON knows it’s running on fumes. See Proposal #104: cut energy fees from 210 -> 100 sun ( That slashes USDT transfer fees from $4.3 -> $2.0. Looks nice, but it’s just a band-aid on a terminal patient.
Why a band-aid? Because it flips TRX supply into inflation. Burn less, issue more -> the token loses value just to keep USDT traffic flowing.
TRON is trying to compete with Tether on Tether’s own field. But once USDT-Chain and USDC-Chain go live, why would anyone need TRON in the middle? TRX = gas with no fire. It only exists to be burned for someone else’s stablecoin. That’s not an ecosystem. That’s dependency.
Funny to watch TRX chart go up. But this is just death throes. TRON is EOS 2.0. From “ETH killer” to empty ghost chain. TRON shills love to brag about “millions of daily transactions.” Translation - millions of boring USDT transfers. Pull the plug on Tether -> all of it disappears overnight.
Someone is going to make a fortune shorting TRX on Hyperliquid. Target - $0.01 by end of 2026. Because without Tether, TRON is worth exactly zero.
