What is a Tron RPC Node?

Access the world's largest stablecoin network

A Tron RPC node provides applications with access to the Tron blockchain, enabling USDT transfers, TRC-20 token operations, smart contract interactions, and account management. Tron's unique architecture uses energy and bandwidth instead of traditional gas fees, making it extremely cost-effective for payments.

Why Tron dominates stablecoins

Tron processes more USDT transfers than any other blockchain, including Ethereum. With near-zero fees and instant settlement, Tron has become the preferred network for cross-border payments, remittances, exchanges, and peer-to-peer transfers. Over 60% of global USDT supply circulates on Tron.

Tron advantages:

  • USDT dominance — 60B+ USDT, largest stablecoin network
  • Near-zero fees — most transfers cost less than $0.01
  • High throughput — 2000+ TPS capacity
  • Energy system — stake TRX for free transactions
  • Instant settlement — 3-second blocks
  • Global adoption — millions of daily active users

How Tron works

Tron uses Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) where 27 Super Representatives produce blocks every 3 seconds. Instead of gas fees, Tron uses an energy and bandwidth system — users can freeze TRX to gain free transactions, making it extremely cost-effective for regular users.

Tron architecture:

  1. 27 Super Representatives elected by TRX holders
  2. Block production rotates among SRs every 3 seconds
  3. Transactions consume energy and bandwidth
  4. Users freeze TRX to obtain free daily resources
  5. TVM (Tron Virtual Machine) executes smart contracts

Energy & Bandwidth system

Bandwidth is used for simple TRX transfers and is freely regenerated daily. Energy is required for smart contract operations and TRC-20 transfers. Users can freeze TRX to gain energy, or pay a small fee in TRX if insufficient.

This system enables millions of users to transfer USDT for free or near-free costs by simply staking TRX, making Tron the most cost-effective network for stablecoin operations.

  • wallet/createtransaction — create TRX transfer
  • wallet/broadcasttransaction — broadcast signed transaction
  • wallet/gettransactionbyid — transaction details
  • wallet/triggersmartcontract — call smart contract

Code Examples

💻

JavaScript (tronweb) — Tron Connection:

const TronWeb = require('tronweb');

const tronWeb = new TronWeb({
  fullHost: 'https://rpc.crypto-chief.com/tron/YOUR_API_KEY',
  headers: { 'TRON-PRO-API-KEY': 'YOUR_API_KEY' }
});

// Get TRX balance
const address = 'TYour1Address2Here3...';
const balance = await tronWeb.trx.getBalance(address);
console.log('TRX Balance:', tronWeb.fromSun(balance), 'TRX');

// Get account resources (energy/bandwidth)
const resources = await tronWeb.trx.getAccountResources(address);
console.log('Energy:', resources.EnergyLimit || 0);
console.log('Bandwidth:', resources.freeNetLimit || 0);

// Get USDT balance (TRC-20)
const usdtContract = 'TR7NHqjeKQxGTCi8q8ZY4pL8otSzgjLj6t';
const contract = await tronWeb.contract().at(usdtContract);
const usdtBalance = await contract.balanceOf(address).call();
console.log('USDT Balance:', usdtBalance / 1e6);
💻

USDT Transfer on Tron:

const TronWeb = require('tronweb');

const tronWeb = new TronWeb({
  fullHost: 'https://rpc.crypto-chief.com/tron/YOUR_API_KEY',
  headers: { 'TRON-PRO-API-KEY': 'YOUR_API_KEY' },
  privateKey: 'YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY'
});

// Transfer USDT (TRC-20)
const usdtContract = 'TR7NHqjeKQxGTCi8q8ZY4pL8otSzgjLj6t';
const toAddress = 'TRecipient1Address2...';
const amount = 100; // 100 USDT

const contract = await tronWeb.contract().at(usdtContract);
const tx = await contract.transfer(
  toAddress,
  amount * 1e6 // USDT has 6 decimals
).send({
  feeLimit: 100_000_000 // 100 TRX fee limit
});

console.log('USDT transfer TX:', tx);
💻

Python (tronpy) — Tron Setup:

from tronpy import Tron
from tronpy.providers import HTTPProvider

provider = HTTPProvider('https://rpc.crypto-chief.com/tron/YOUR_API_KEY')
client = Tron(provider=provider)

# Get account info
address = 'TYour1Address2Here3...'
account = client.get_account(address)
print('TRX Balance:', account.get('balance', 0) / 1e6, 'TRX')

# Get account resources
resources = client.get_account_resource(address)
print('Energy:', resources.get('EnergyLimit', 0))
print('Bandwidth:', resources.get('freeNetLimit', 0))

# Get latest block
latest_block = client.get_latest_block()
print('Latest block:', latest_block['block_header']['raw_data']['number'])
💻

Check Transaction Status:

const TronWeb = require('tronweb');

const tronWeb = new TronWeb({
  fullHost: 'https://rpc.crypto-chief.com/tron/YOUR_API_KEY'
});

const txId = 'your_transaction_id_here';

// Get transaction info (confirmed)
const txInfo = await tronWeb.trx.getTransactionInfo(txId);
console.log('Status:', txInfo.receipt?.result); // SUCCESS or FAILED
console.log('Block:', txInfo.blockNumber);
console.log('Energy used:', txInfo.receipt?.energy_usage_total || 0);
console.log('Fee:', txInfo.fee || 0, 'SUN');

// Get transaction details
const tx = await tronWeb.trx.getTransaction(txId);
console.log('Transaction:', tx);

Tron Best Practices

  • Freeze TRX: Stake TRX to get free energy for USDT transfers
  • Energy Management: Monitor energy usage to avoid fees
  • Fee Limit: Set appropriate feeLimit for contract calls
  • Address Format: Tron uses base58 addresses starting with 'T'
  • Confirmations: Wait 19+ blocks for high-value transfers
  • USDT Contract: Use official USDT-TRC20 contract address

Got questions?
we are here to help

Tron is a high-throughput blockchain optimized for payments and stablecoins. It's the world's largest network for USDT transfers with 60B+ USDT in circulation.

Tron offers near-zero fees for USDT transfers (often free with staked TRX), instant settlement, and high throughput — making it ideal for payments and exchanges.

TRX transfers are often free with bandwidth. USDT transfers cost ~1-5 TRX ($0.10-$0.50) or can be free if you freeze TRX for energy.

TRC-20 is Tron's token standard, similar to Ethereum's ERC-20. USDT-TRC20 is the most widely used TRC-20 token.

Energy and bandwidth are resources consumed by transactions. Users freeze (stake) TRX to gain free daily energy/bandwidth, eliminating transaction fees.

Freeze TRX to obtain energy. With enough frozen TRX, you can make USDT transfers without paying fees. Most users freeze 20-50 TRX for regular use.

No, Tron uses TVM (Tron Virtual Machine), which is similar to EVM but not identical. Smart contracts are written in Solidity but require Tron-specific modifications.

Tron produces blocks every 3 seconds. Transactions receive soft confirmation in seconds, with finality after 19+ block confirmations (~1 minute).

Yes, we provide RPC access to Tron mainnet and testnets (Shasta, Nile) for development and testing.

The official USDT-TRC20 contract is TR7NHqjeKQxGTCi8q8ZY4pL8otSzgjLj6t. Always verify contract addresses to avoid scams.
