WalletConnect, the infrastructure powering crypto payments, today announced support for the TRON blockchain, providing institutions with secure access to TRON DeFi and expanding payment connectivity and use cases across one of the world's largest blockchain networks.
The integration gives WalletConnect-connected wallets and apps access to the TRON ecosystem, and crucially accelerates stablecoins as a global payment format. TRON has become a major settlement network, processing an estimated $7.9 trillion in USDT volume in 2025 alone.
"Stablecoins are proving they can move money faster and more efficiently than traditional payment rails, the next step is making them universally accessible," said Jess Houlgrave, CEO of WalletConnect. "Each new integration gives more users access to crypto and to faster and cheaper payments - adding TRON expands the global stablecoin rails available to our ecosystem and strengthens everyday payment adoption."
Stablecoins have evolved from a crypto-native tool into a mainstream payment instrument for consumer transfers, merchant settlement, cross-border payments, and digital commerce. Recently, Ingenico announced an integration with WalletConnect Pay to enable stablecoin payments across 40 million+ point-of-sale terminals worldwide, one of the largest expansions into physical retail to date.
TRON is one of the most widely used blockchain networks for stablecoin settlement, supporting high-frequency value transfer across consumer and business use cases globally. The network has become a primary rail for moving digital dollars quickly and affordably, widely used for P2P transfers, remittances, merchant settlement, exchange payouts, and "digital cash" movement globally. Major platforms like Revolut have tapped TRON for staking and stablecoin payments, further demonstrating the network's growing adoption in mainstream financial services.
"Payments are the clearest path to mainstream adoption, and stablecoins are the most practical digital currency for everyday value transfer," said Justin Sun, Founder of TRON. "By integrating with WalletConnect, we're expanding access to TRON-based payments across the wallets and applications people already use."
WalletConnect support for TRON is available across leading wallets in the ecosystem, including Trust Wallet, which has processed more than $20 million in transactions since October; Binance Web3 Wallet, with $3 million processed; and SafePal, with $1.7 million processed. The integration is also being extended to applications. Apps including Sun.io, JustLend, Bridgers, Symbiosis Finance, and Debridge are actively implementing WalletConnect.
