Tron’s bold move to slash transaction fees has come at a steep price. In just 10 days, the blockchain saw its daily network revenue collapse by 64%, a blow that marks its lowest earnings level in more than a year.
According to a new CryptoQuant report, fees collected by Tron’s block producers — known as Super Representatives — dropped from $13.9 million to just $5 million by Sept. 7. The decline followed the network-wide implementation of a fee reduction plan, delivering one of the sharpest revenue contractions among major blockchains in recent memory.
On-chain data confirms that average gas fees on Tron plummeted by around 60% after the approval of Proposal #789, officially titled “Decrease the transaction fees.” The update cut the energy unit price from 210 sun to 100 sun, with 1 TRX equal to 1 million sun — the smallest divisible part of the token.
Despite the immediate financial hit, Tron’s leadership and community remain confident the move will pay off. Proposal #789, introduced by community member GrothenDI, was designed to encourage broader adoption and “ensure the sustainable and healthy development of the Tron ecosystem.”
Projections estimate the lower fees could generate as many as 12 million additional transactions, potentially offsetting the short-term losses by expanding network activity and user growth. This strategic gamble underscores Tron’s long-term vision: sacrificing near-term revenue in exchange for mass adoption and ecosystem sustainability.
Even with the revenue dip, Tron continues to tower over its competitors in the L1 space. Data from Token Terminal shows that Tron captured 92.8% of all transaction fee revenue among layer-1 blockchains in the past week, well ahead of Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, and Avalanche. Over the past 90 days, Tron has generated more than $1.1 billion in transaction fees, reinforcing its dominance despite the fee cut.
Historically, Ethereum has maintained the upper hand in cumulative revenue, pulling in over $13 billion across five years compared to Tron’s $6.3 billion. Yet the latest figures highlight how Tron has solidified its position as one of the most profitable L1s, even as it experiments with aggressive strategies to drive long-term growth.
