What is TRON (TRX)?

TRON (TRX) is a public blockchain whose project launched in 2017 and whose mainnet went live in 2018, when TRX migrated from an Ethereum token to the network’s native coin. TRON runs smart contracts on the TRON Virtual Machine (TVM), and network tokens are usually issued under the TRC-20 standard. TRX pays for network resources and for the votes that elect block producers. TRON moves tokens quickly and is widely used for stablecoin transfers, particularly Tether (USDT).

TRON became the native coin of its own blockchain when the mainnet went live in 2018, after starting as an Ethereum token. It meters transactions in Bandwidth and Energy rather than a single gas price, which can keep transfers cheap and fast, though fees vary with network conditions.

How the TRON network works

TRON uses Delegated Proof-of-Stake: TRX holders vote for a limited group of elected Super Representatives that produce blocks and confirm transactions.
Governance is run through the TRON DAO, and smart contracts execute on the TRON Virtual Machine (TVM).
Instead of a single gas price, TRON meters transactions in two resources, Bandwidth and Energy, and accounts can stake TRX for more of both.
Accounts get a small free daily Bandwidth allowance, and when an account lacks enough Bandwidth or Energy, TRX is burned to cover the transaction.
This design can keep transfers cheap and fast, though fees vary with network conditions.

What TRX does and what TRON is used for

TRX pays for network resources, and TRX holders vote for the elected Super Representatives who produce blocks.
A TRON address holds TRX and TRC-20 tokens in the same place, so one wallet covers your TRX and any stablecoins you receive.
TRON moves tokens quickly and is widely used for stablecoin transfers, particularly Tether (USDT), and stablecoin transfers make up a large share of transactions.
Much of the activity on the network is transfer volume rather than trading of TRX itself.
The wider ecosystem includes decentralized exchanges, lending apps and other on-chain applications, and in 2018 Justin Sun and TRON acquired BitTorrent Inc.

Risks to know before you buy TRX

Block production is concentrated among a small group of elected Super Representatives, making TRON more centralized than networks with a large, open validator set.
Founder Justin Sun remains closely associated with the project.
In March 2023 the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission sued Justin Sun, the TRON Foundation and related entities, alleging unregistered TRX sales and undisclosed promotion.
These are allegations, not findings of liability – check the SEC’s litigation releases for the current status.
TRX is volatile and can fall sharply.

How do I buy TRON (TRX)?

You can buy TRON on Coinmama with a credit card, debit card, bank transfer over SEPA or SWIFT, Apple Pay, or Google Pay – available payment methods vary by country. Coinmama has operated since 2013 and is non-custodial for purchases, so your TRX is sent to a TRON wallet address you provide rather than held on the platform. Accounts support two-factor authentication, and support is available 24/7 at support@coinmama.com.

Coinmama lists other assets too – see the full range of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, DeFi tokens such as Uniswap and Aave, and Wrapped Bitcoin, an Ethereum token backed one-for-one by custodied Bitcoin. Availability varies by country, and none of this is a recommendation to buy. This page is general information, not investment, tax, or legal advice. Crypto assets are volatile and largely unregulated in many jurisdictions; you can lose the full value of your purchase. Do your own research and consider whether you can afford the risk before buying.

Frequently asked questions

In many countries buying crypto is permitted, but rules differ and some jurisdictions restrict or ban it – we cannot tell you whether it is legal where you live. Coinmama is operated by New Bit Ventures Ltd. and applies KYC and AML checks. Check your local regulations; availability varies by country.

Verification is usually quick. You submit a government-issued ID and a selfie, and most accounts are approved shortly after. Occasionally a review takes longer if a document is unclear or extra checks are needed. Coinmama’s support team is available 24/7 if yours is delayed.

Coinmama supports credit cards, debit cards, bank transfers via SEPA or SWIFT, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. Which of these you can use depends on your country and your bank, so the checkout page shows the options available to you once you are logged in.

Store TRX in a wallet that supports the TRON network, such as TronLink or a compatible hardware wallet. TRON addresses start with T and hold both TRX and TRC-20 tokens. Keep some TRX in the address: transactions consume Bandwidth and Energy, so tokens without TRX cannot be sent. Keep your recovery phrase offline.

Coinmama sends the TRX to the TRON wallet address you entered during checkout as soon as your payment clears. You will get an order confirmation by email, and the transfer is recorded on the TRON blockchain, where you can look it up with a block explorer.

Yes. Coinmama is non-custodial for purchases, so you need a TRON wallet address before you check out. Set up a TRON-compatible software or hardware wallet, copy its receiving address, and paste it into your order so the TRX is delivered directly to you.

Coinmama protects your data in transit with TLS encryption, supports two-factor authentication on your account, and uses Cloudflare edge protection, and it follows KYC and AML verification requirements. No platform can promise absolute security, so use a strong, unique password and keep 2FA enabled.

Sometimes – selling is not offered everywhere and depends on your country. Check your Coinmama account for the sell options available to you, or contact support@coinmama.com. Because Coinmama is non-custodial for purchases, any TRX you want to sell must be sent from your own wallet.

TRON is a common route for Tether because transfers usually settle quickly and fees are typically low, though costs vary with network Energy prices. Match the network at both ends: send USDT-TRC20 only to a deposit address issued for the TRON network, not one issued for Ethereum’s ERC-20, or the funds may be unrecoverable.
