The network supports high-volume payments globally as the second-largest stablecoin network after Ethereum. Combined, the two networks control over 80% of the stablecoin market.<\/p>\n<p>The DAO says that this matters since AI agents require predictable and scalable transaction rails.<\/p>\n<p>With agentic AI commerce in sharp focus in recent years, stablecoins have gained prominence as the best tokens to power this high-volume and high-throughput use case. Some networks like Polygon are burning up to $1 million in gas fees from agentic commerce, as we <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/polygon-to-burn-unused-pol\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported<\/a>, with others like Sui <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/sui-autonomous-ai-agents\/\">positioning<\/a> its network as the most suited for agentic transactions due to its native full-stack execution platform.<\/p>\n<h2>AI Agents on TRON<\/h2>\n<p>Sun has been vocal about the impact that AI will have, in crypto and beyond. Responding to the news that Jack Dorsey\u2019s Block was laying off nearly half its staff due to AI alignment, he <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/justinsuntron\/status\/2027253216484986959\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">stated<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThis isn\u2019t a cycle. It\u2019s a rebuild. AI is becoming the new operating layer. TRON is built for scale and real-world usage.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Sun identified AINFT as the pioneer of artificial intelligence in the TRON ecosystem. Originally built as APENFT, AINFT gives NFTs AI capabilities, moving them from plain JPEGs to interactive agents that can chat, make decisions and execute.<\/p>\n<p>But while Sun has been pushing AINFT, the platform has failed to attract investors. Over the past seven days, its marketplace shows that it has only moved 140 TRX across just two collections. With TRX trading at $0.2795, that\u2019s an average of $5.6 daily in trading volume over the past week, an underwhelming return for the network\u2019s premier AI project.<\/p>\n<p>Still, Sun remains bullish on AI. At the Consensus Conference in Hong Kong earlier in February, he stated that he is working on Web 4.0, which fuses AI with the TRON blockchain.<\/p>\n<p>While products like AINFT have not been a success, TRON continues to record massive transaction numbers. In the last quarter of last year, the network processed 994 million transactions, a 16.5% increase from the previous quarter, data from Lookonchain shows.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Tron processed 994M transactions in Q4 2025, up 16.5% QoQ.<\/p>\n<p>Daily transactions peaked at over 12.6M on October 28.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/kLGWAwmlA8\">https:\/\/t.co\/kLGWAwmlA8<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/OK4PuLVHUN\">pic.twitter.com\/OK4PuLVHUN<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Lookonchain (@lookonchain) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lookonchain\/status\/2026536676961763424?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">February 25, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All news is rigorously fact-checked and reviewed by leading blockchain experts and seasoned industry insiders.
