TRX runs TRON: 94.99B coins circulate, all of them unlocked. New TRX pays block producers and voters, and every fee paid is destroyed.

Sell pressure. Block rewards are the only new supply: 352.4M TRX in 90 days, 136 per block. Nothing vests, and no team reserve is left to unlock.

Buy pressure. The fee burn destroyed 226.95M TRX, about 64% of the new coins, and it is slowly shrinking.

1. Protocol inflation
~352.4M TRX

Every block mints 136 new TRX: 8 for the block producer and 128 shared by the top 127 vote-getters and their voters. The chain made 2,591,074 blocks in these 90 days, so 352.4M new TRX, about 3.92M a day. The reward was last cut in June 2025, and no vote is open to change it.

2. Vesting unlocks
0

TRX has no vesting left. The 2017 sale and team coins were released years ago, and circulating supply is within 0.001% of total supply.

checked · Oct 11 2026
3. Foundation + unscheduled unlocks
0

The old Foundation fund accounts are all but empty (about 283 TRX in total) and have not moved since 2020. Tron Inc., a listed company, holds about 716.8M TRX it bought in the market. All of it is already counted as circulating, so a sale would move coins between holders and add no new supply.

checked · Oct 11 2026
4. Long-term locked or bankruptcy
0

No bankruptcy estate, trustee or long lock is releasing TRX. Staked TRX can be withdrawn 14 days after unstaking and already counts as circulating.

Buy pressure
1. Programmatic buyback
0

The protocol does not buy TRX back. Fees are destroyed instead, and that is counted as the fee burn below.

checked · Oct 11 2026
2. Protocol fee burn
~226.95M TRX

Every fee paid in TRX (for network use, smart contracts, new accounts, memos) is destroyed. Supply at both ends of the window, with the new coins taken out, shows 226.95M TRX destroyed, about 2.52M a day, and a random sample of blocks read from the chain agrees. The burn is slowing (84.2M, then 72.4M, then 70.3M a month) with no fee change behind it, so the forward figure keeps the 90-day rate.

checked · Oct 11 2026
3. Foundation buy
0

No project treasury buys TRX. Tron Inc. buys about 150,000 TRX every day (about $50,000) under a 360-day plan that started Jan 22 2026, but it buys coins already in the market, so the float does not shrink.

checked · Oct 11 2026
4. New long-term lock
0

About 45.39B TRX is staked for network resources and votes (45.78B at the start of the window), and a staked TRX fund began trading in September. Staked TRX still counts as circulating, so staking takes nothing out of the float.

Every answer here applies basic economic theory — the law of supply and demand — to this coin's data. It is not financial advice. How we read every coin →

How does MrNasdog judge every coin, and why is +0.13% shown in red?

We look at two things, half each: supply and demand. Fewer new coins mean less selling pressure. A meme coin scores 1.5 at most on supply: its team got its coins for free, so no new supply does not make it safe. We also show each coin's age, with a warning when it is younger than 1 year. Demand looks at how much people want the coin now and how much buying could come later. Price Drivers (Beta) are the 2 or 3 things that can move one coin's price that supply and demand miss; they have no score. TRX supply grows +0.13% in the next 90 days, so it shows in red: more TRX reaches the market than is removed. Zero or falling supply is always green, any growth is red.
