TRON to Introduce ‘Gas-Free’ Stablecoins

The TRON team is developing a solution for fee-free P2P stablecoin transfers, as announced by the project’s founder, Justin Sun.

Our team is developing a new solution that enables gas-free stablecoin transfers. In other words, transfers can be made without paying any gas tokens, with the fees being entirely covered by the stablecoins themselves.

“Transfers can be made without paying any gas tokens, with the fees being entirely covered by the stablecoins themselves,” Sun explained.

He anticipates the mechanism will be implemented in the fourth quarter, followed by Ethereum and other EVM-compatible networks.

According to the analytics firm Artemis, TRON leads in stablecoin activity, surpassing BSC in the number of active wallets and Ethereum in coin turnover volume.
