TRON moved $2.2 trillion in stablecoins while TRX supply grew for 108 straight days

TRON’s stablecoin settlement business grew in the third quarter of 2026, while the supply of its native TRX token increased on every day from July 1 through October 16. The blockchain added 125.8 million TRX in Q3 and another 22.9 million over the first 16 days of October, after subtracting tokens burned.TRON can handle more dollar transfers without destroying more of its native token than it creates. TRON DAO Research reported $2.2126 trillion in Q3 stablecoin settlement, up 5.1% from Q2. TRX supply nevertheless kept expanding into October.TRON’s design allows these outcomes to coexist: reusable resources can cover network activity, while block-production and voting rewards continue to mint TRX. October’s measured shortfall shows how far the network was from supply balance and how closing the gap would affect resource payers and reward recipients.TRONSCAN’s July, August and September daily records contain 92 observations covering the full third quarter. Issuance exceeded burns on every date. The October 1–16 records add another 16 positive readings, bringing the sample to 108 consecutive days.Period in 2026TRX issuedTRX burnedNet TRX issuedQ3: July 1–Sept. 30, 92 days360,217,35223...
