The Tron (TRX) network has made headlines by approving a significant reduction in transaction fees, cutting them by up to 60% following a majority vote within the community, as rising fees have been seen as a barrier to user participation and ecosystem development.
The proposal alleged that while higher fees are essential for the Tron network’s overall security and stability, they have also eroded Tron’s competitive edge, making it imperative to adjust them.
As a result, the earlier 50% reduction in energy unit prices, established by a previous proposal, has been negated, prompting this latest response from the Tron Super Representative community.
Sun alleged that in the short term, this reduction is expected to impact the networ’s profitability, given that the network relies on transaction fees as a primary revenue source.
To ensure that the fee structure remains competitive and sustainable, the network’s Super Representative community plans to conduct quarterly reviews of network fees.
On August 26, 2025, the Tron Super Representative community proposed to reduce Tron network fees by 60%. This is the largest fee reduction since the founding of the Tron network. The proposal has already passed and will take effect at 20:00 (GMT+8) this Friday
