Tron founder Justin Sun has revealed his team is building a gas-free stablecoin solution to make peer-to-peer transfers free for all.
Tron’s founder Jusin Sun believes gasless stablecoins could take corporate adoption of blockchain to a new level.
Sun hopes to integrate the stablecoin solution on the Tron blockchain this fourth quarter, followed by Ethereum and other Ethereum Virtual Machine-compatible public chains soon after.
“Transfers can be made without paying any gas tokens, with the fees being entirely covered by the stablecoins themselves,” Sun explained in a July 6 X post.
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.

However, he didn’t explain how the mechanism would work.
Sun believes this gas-free stablecoins could be a game-changer for companies looking to offer stablecoin services.
“I believe that similar services will greatly facilitate large companies in deploying stablecoin services on the blockchain, elevating blockchain mass adoption to a new level.”
Tron currently leads the peer-to-peer stablecoin transfer market and is consistently processing two to three times the volume of second-placed Ethereum, blockchain analytics firm Artemis highlighted in a June 27 X post.
Tron is home to more than $50 billion of Tether’s $112 billion in value issued across multiple blockchains, DeFiLlama data shows.
Tron’s solution could compete with PayPal’s PYUSD, which allows certain United States-based users to make cross-border payments for free.
Circle’s USD Coin (USDC) on Ethereum layer 2 Base via Coinbase Wallet also allows free transfers.
Circle and cryptocurrency exchange Binance recently removed support for USDC on Tron, perhaps providing Tron with an incentive to build a solution of their own.
Tron is also considering building a Bitcoin layer 2 solution that would support a “wrapped” version of Tether — potentially enabling billions of dollars to flow into the Bitcoin ecosystem.
For the time being, Tron is leveraging existing cross-chain protocols to bridge USDT and other tokens between Bitcoin and Tron.
