How to Accept TRON ($TRX) as a Payment Option On your E-commerce store?

What are TRON Payments?

TRON payments refer to transactions made using the TRON cryptocurrency ($TRX) on the TRON network. TRON is a decentralized blockchain platform founded in 2017 by H.E. Justin Sun, which has seen impressive growth since its MainNet launch in 2018.

The TRON network boasts over 141 million user accounts and over 4.8 billion total transactions, with a total value locked (TVL) of over $11.2 billion. The TRON network is also home to the largest circulating supply of USD Tether (USDT) stablecoin and has recently launched its own decentralized stablecoin, USDD. In addition, TRON has been designated as the national blockchain for the Commonwealth of Dominica, and seven TRON-based tokens, including TRX, have been granted statutory status as authorized digital currencies in the country. These developments highlight TRON’s growing significance, credibility, and use as a payment option in the digital currency landscape.
