Summary
- TRON added roughly $2B in stablecoin supply over the 30 days leading into early August 2026.
- Nearly 98% of the network's $91.8B stablecoin supply consists of USDT.
- Tether released its first full independent audit of 2025 financial statements by KPMG.
TRON picked up roughly $2B in stablecoin supply over the past 30 days. Its total stablecoin supply hit about $91.8B. TRON DAO reported that nearly all of it sits in USDT.
This growth lines up with Tether's first full audit of its 2025 statements. The timing puts TRON right in the middle of stablecoin expansion.
Context
TRON has long served as a main rail for USDT transfers. Low fees and fast finality drive that role. The latest 30-day surge lifted the chain's share of global USDT deployment to 49.35%.
No other network matched the scale of inflows during the same window.
The increase occurred as Tether completed its inaugural full audit. KPMG examined Tether International's 2025 statements and confirmed reserves exceeded liabilities by $6.8B. The report covers only Tether International and leaves some prior transparency issues unaddressed.
Details
TRON's stablecoin supply climbed to roughly $91.8B in early August. That marks a gain of about $2B over the trailing 30 days. TRON DAO reported that nearly 98% of that figure consists of USDT.
CryptoNews noted the $1B surge outpaced every other chain during the period.
Tether completed the largest inaugural financial audit in its history when KPMG signed off on the year ended December 31, 2025. The audit applies solely to Tether International and does not cover all historical concerns raised about reserve composition.

An August network upgrade for node operators carries a deadline of August 16, 2026. The change shows no clear short-term effect on TRX price or stablecoin flows based on current reporting.
Outlook
TRON will continue to track USDT circulation growth. Participants will watch whether the completed Tether audit leads to broader institutional inflows or further reserve disclosures in coming months.
