TRON’s native token, TRX, has reflected the broader market’s recent sluggishness, with minimal movement over the past weeks. The token recorded a marginal 0.2% decline over the last seven days and is currently trading at approximately $0.2451, showing a 1.8% decrease in the last 24 hours.

Despite this muted price activity, TRON’s network fundamentals suggest underlying stability and continued operational efficiency.

TRON Super Representative Signals Active Governance

According to recent insights from CryptoQuant’s research team, TRON’s blockchain infrastructure has consistently produced 99.7% of its expected 28,800 blocks per day, demonstrating strong reliability.

This performance contrasts with earlier years, particularly 2020 to 2021, when block production experienced greater volatility. The team attributes this improvement to the effectiveness of TRON’s Super Representative (SR) system and the maturation of its delegated proof-of-stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism.

The report further highlights that the number of SRs has remained relatively stable, with 30 different SRs contributing in 2025 so far.  Of these, 24 SRs were responsible for just over 3.7% of total block production.

Comparatively, there were 34 active SRs during the same period in 2020, with a similar share of block production.  However, the composition of these SRs has changed significantly.

Roughly 68% of the SRs active in 2020 are no longer producing blocks today, replaced by newer participants. This dynamic rotation of block producers reflects decentralization and ongoing community participation in TRON’s governance structure.

$1B in USDT Minted as Network Sees Increased Institutional Demand

Alongside its stable network performance, TRON recently witnessed a major liquidity event. On May 5, 2025, Tether Treasury minted $1 billion worth of USDT on the TRON blockchain, continuing a pattern of large-scale stablecoin issuance on the network.

CryptoQuant analyst Amr Taha emphasized that these mints are not speculative but are backed by verified fiat deposits, typically from large-scale investment funds or over-the-counter (OTC) trading desks. The influx suggests significant institutional interest, with funds likely earmarked for crypto market activity.

Taha explained that TRON’s appeal lies in its cost-effective and fast transaction capabilities. These attributes make it an ideal network for executing large USDT transfers efficiently, especially in use cases like cross-border remittances, high-frequency trading, and arbitrage.

The analyst also noted that TRON-based USDT is particularly popular in Asia, where access to traditional financial rails can be limited. As such, the $1 billion mint highlights TRON’s growing role as a hub for global crypto liquidity.

Samuel Edyme

Meet Samuel Edyme, Nickname – HIM-buktu. A web3 content writer, journalist, and aspiring trader, Edyme is as versatile as they come. With a knack for words and a nose for trends, he has penned pieces for numerous industry player, including AMBCrypto, Blockchain.News, and Blockchain Reporter, among others.

Edyme’s foray into the crypto universe is nothing short of cinematic. His journey began not with a triumphant investment, but with a scam. Yes, a Ponzi scheme that used crypto as payment roped him in. Rather than retreating, he emerged wiser and more determined, channeling his experience into over three years of insightful market analysis.

Before becoming the voice of reason in the crypto space, Edyme was the quintessential crypto degen. He aped into anything that promised a quick buck, anything ape-able, learning the ropes the hard way. These hands-on experience through major market events—like the Terra Luna crash, the wave of bankruptcies in crypto firms, the notorious FTX collapse, and even CZ’s arrest—has honed his keen sense of market dynamics.

When he isn’t crafting engaging crypto content, you’ll find Edyme backtesting charts, studying both forex and synthetic indices. His dedication to mastering the art of trading is as relentless as his pursuit of the next big story. Away from his screens, he can be found in the gym, airpods in, working out and listening to his favorite artist, NF. Or maybe he’s catching some Z’s or scrolling through Elon Musk’s very own X platform—(oops, another screen activity, my bad…)

Well, being an introvert, Edyme thrives in the digital realm, preferring online interaction over offline encounters—(don’t judge, that’s just how he is built). His determination is quite unwavering to be honest, and he embodies the philosophy of continuous improvement, or “kaizen,” striving to be 1% better every day. His mantras, “God knows best” and “Everything is still on track,” reflect his resilient outlook and how he lives his life.

In a nutshell, Samuel Edyme was born efficient, driven by ambition, and perhaps a touch fierce. He’s neither artistic nor unrealistic, and certainly not chauvinistic. Think of him as Bruce Willis in a train wreck—unflappable. Edyme is like trading in your car for a jet—bold. He’s the guy who’d ask his boss for a pay cut just to prove a point—(uhhh…). He is like watching your kid take his first steps. Imagine Bill Gates struggling with rent—okay, maybe that’s a stretch, but you get the idea, yeah. Unbelievable? Yes. Inconceivable? Perhaps.

Edyme sees himself as a fairly reasonable guy, albeit a bit stubborn. Normal to you is not to him. He is not the one to take the easy road, and why would he? That’s just not the way he roll. He has these favorite lyrics from NF’s “Clouds” that resonate deeply with him: “What you think’s probably unfeasible, I’ve done already a hundredfold.”

PS—Edyme is HIM. HIM-buktu. Him-mulation. Him-Kardashian. Himon and Pumba. He even had his DNA tested, and guess what? He’s 100% Him-alayan. Screw it, he ate the opp.
