TRON hits $30T volume amid USDT dominance and compliance concerns
TRON (TRX)

cvj.ai reports that TRON has surpassed $30 trillion in lifetime transaction volume, driven by its dominance in USDT transfers and a growing push into payments and regulated finance. However, the same low-cost stablecoin infrastructure that fuels this growth has also made TRON a major conduit for illicit funds. This dynamic raises compliance stakes as institutional products arrive.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for TRX, measured when this story was written up on 25 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data for TRX shows a price of $0.3403 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 52.0%, indicating that slightly more than half of trades were buys. In contrast, the 1-hour buy ratio is 49.1% and the 4-hour ratio is 45.9%, suggesting that buying pressure is fading in the short term compared to the daily average. The 24-hour volume delta is positive at $1,484,438, meaning net buying exceeded net selling over the day, while the 1-hour delta is negative at -$13,588 and the 4-hour delta is -$159,297, indicating recent net selling. Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) closed at -$416,680, showing that despite the higher buy ratio, the size of sell orders outweighed buys in the final hours.
The latest daily buy ratio of 49.7% sits at the 33rd percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 52.4% - ordinary for this coin.
