TRX · deterministic emission vs USDT-driven burn.
136 TRX per block × 28,800 blocks per day produces a fixed ~352.5M / 90d. Bandwidth + energy + account-creation fees are burned at ~2.1M / day — driven mostly by USDT-TRC20 throughput. Net mildly inflationary today; governance could shift either lever.
Deterministic per-block emission: 136 TRX/block (8 SR + 128 voting) × 28,800 blocks/day. Set in the protocol; magnitude is fixed by the SR economic model.
2018 ICO + early allocations fully released. No scheduled team / investor cliffs remain.
No public evidence of release in window — monitored. §0.45.3.4 enumeration: TRON DAO genesis allocation ~34.3B TRX (partially deployed historically; live wallet balance not directly readable across multiple addresses) + Justin Sun / TRON Foundation operational wallets (publicly-identified holdings, no announced distribution programme).
No bankruptcy estate. Frozen TRX (stake-for-bandwidth) unfreezes same-day or within 3 days — operational, not a 90+ day long-term lock.
No protocol-level mechanism converts revenue to buy TRX. SR rewards are newly emitted, not bought back.
Bandwidth + energy + account-creation fees are burned (~2.1M TRX/day average per the block-explorer aggregate). Dominant driver is USDT-TRC20 throughput. Rule-based at the protocol level; magnitude varies with stablecoin transfer volume.
No structural Foundation accumulation programme. No announced corporate buying.
Stake-for-bandwidth unfreezes operationally (same-day to 3 days). No new long-term lockup programme.
