Justin Sun on TRON’s early focus: making stablecoins actually usable In a short video, @justinsuntron explains the core problem TRON set out to solve: “At that time, you just couldn’t move your stablecoin. Even though the concept existed, how do you actually transfer it? There was only Bitcoin and Ethereum. Bitcoin was super slow, and Ethereum always had traffic jams. Tether was based on those networks.” He positions TRON as the first blockchain built specifically to fix this, a network with near-instant, low-cost transactions that let users receive stablecoins in about one second. That early bet on real-world utility (instead of pure speculation) is still shaping TRON today, helping it become a dominant rail for USDT transfers. Bitcoin was too slow, Ethereum too congested => TRON chose speed and low cost for stablecoins. And it worked.
