What is TRON?
The TRON blockchain is designed to support free and decentralized digital content while keeping transaction fees low through its primary asset TRON (TRX). TRON is also a blockchain platform for decentralized applications (dApps).
Development for TRON was started in 2017 by a Singapore non-profit called the TRON Foundation by Founder and CEO Justin Sun. TRON began as an ERC20 token on the Ethereum network until it was launched on its own TRON network in 2018.
Video tutorial: What is TRON?
What are the benefits of TRON?
TRON allows you to send TRC10 and TRC20 tokens without having to pay network transaction fees. This can be done by freezing some TRON in your wallet.
If you do not have enough Energy or Bandwidth from freezing TRON, then you can pay TRON network transaction fees in TRON (TRX).
TRON token FAQs
What are TRC10 and TRC20 tokens?
Like other blockchain networks such as Ethereum, TRON allows users to create or issue tokens. These tokens can be used as a dApp's currency.
Like Ethereum has ERC20 tokens, TRON has TRC10 and TRC20 tokens.
TRC10 is a technical token standard, and TRC20 is a technical standard used for smart contracts on the TRON blockchain.
TRC10 vs. TRC20
Aside from easy token creation (TRC10) and smart contract functionality (TRC20), there are a few other key differences between the two types of tokens:
- TRC10 is accessible via API (application programming interface)
- TRC10 has 1000 times lower transaction fees than TRC20 but has bandwidth costs for API transfers and deposits
- TRC10 transfers and deposits into smart contracts cost bandwidth and energy
Bandwidth allows users to perform TRON transactions, and Energy allows users to process TRON smart contracts. Instead of paying gas fees (small amounts of cryptocurrency, such as in Ethereum's network where Gas = small amounts of ETH) to perform these tasks, users freeze or lock up TRON (TRX), which generates bandwidth and energy.
For more differences between TRC10 and TRC20, see this guide on TRON's website: TRON Ecosystem Introduction.
Which TRON tokens does Exodus support?
You can download Exodus to interact with the following TRON tokens:
| Tether (USDT TRX) | TRC20 token | Send, receive, exchange |
| JUST (JST) | TRC20 token | Send, receive, exchange |
| Sun (SUN) | TRC20 token | Send, receive, exchange |
| BitTorrent (new) (BTT)* | TRC20 token | Send, receive, exchange |
| BitTorrent (BTTOLD) | TRC10 token | Send, receive |
*New BTT is referred to as BTTC in Binance. If sending BTTC from Binance, please use the TRON network.
If you currently hold BTTOLD, and would like more information on the BTT migration, or instructions on how to swap your BTTOLD for new TRC20 BTT tokens, check out this Knowledge Base article: How do I swap old BitTorrent (BTT) for new BTT?
To enable TRC20 BTT, follow the steps in this guide: How do I enable/disable assets in Exodus?
Why can't I see my TRC20 tokens?
If your TRON address doesn't have any TRX in it, it doesn't exist on the blockchain.
So if you send TRC20 tokens to your wallet, or swap some crypto to a TRC20 token, your TRC20 tokens will not appear. You'll also pay higher transaction fees to send TRC20 tokens to this address.
If your TRC20 token (USDT TRX, BTT, JST, or SUN) balance does not appear, or if you'd like to send tokens to a new TRON address with a lower fee, you can activate your TRON address in Exodus.
You can do this by sending your TRON address some TRX, or by following the steps below.

What is a frozen TRON balance?
The TRON network allows you to freeze TRON (TRX) for Energy and Bandwidth. This allows you to send TRX, TRC10, and TRC20 transactions from your wallet without paying transaction fees.
The amount of TRX needed to be frozen in order to send TRX, TRC10, and TRC20 transactions without paying transaction fees can vary. Use this calculator to determine how much TRX you will need to freeze.
If you do not have enough Bandwidth, you will need to pay a network fee. During usual network conditions, the network fee will be between 10 and 20 TRX. However, during spikes in activity, network fees may increase.
When sending TRC20 tokens, the Max Network Feewill usually be between 50 and 100 TRX. Depending on the address you are sending tokens to and the token you are sending, theMax Network Feemay increase. In Exodus, you can always see the estimatedMax Network Feebefore you send your TRC20 tokens.
The Max Network Fee is set to ensure your transaction is successful, even during spikes in network activity. You will only be charged the required network fee for sending the transaction. Click here to learn more about the Max Network Fee.
