MoonPay, a leading fiat-to-crypto gateway, has officially added support for TRON (TRX), enabling U.S. users to buy TRX tokens through its platform. The collaboration was announced by TRON DAO on May 7, marking the beginning of a broader partnership between the two organizations.
According to Ivan Soto-Wright, co-founder and CEO of MoonPay, the integration provides American users with access to TRON’s fast-growing ecosystem, which averages 8.3 million daily transactions.
“TRON continues to deliver impressive results across its entire ecosystem – from DeFi and stablecoin leadership to powering some of today’s most innovative platforms. We’re excited to make TRX accessible to our U.S. users, unlocking new opportunities to participate and benefit from TRON’s diverse, fast-growing ecosystem,” said Soto-Wright.
Facilitating Payments and Stablecoin Transactions
The new support for TRX aligns with TRON’s strategic push to strengthen its payment infrastructure. Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson for TRON DAO, emphasized the importance of having a reliable onramp for U.S. users as TRON expands its global settlement network.
“Having TRX available for U.S. users on MoonPay’s instant, programmable payments platform is a very positive development for our ecosystem. MoonPay’s integration greatly enhances TRON’s trajectory as a global settlement network,” Elfarra stated.
On May 7, the supply of stablecoins on TRON reached a record $71.9 billion, underscoring the network’s growing role in blockchain-based payments. The addition of USD1 stablecoin, recently launched by Trump-linked World Liberty Financial, further bolsters TRON’s stablecoin ecosystem.
Despite market volatility, TRX has maintained stability since hitting its all-time high of $0.4407 in December 2024, currently trading around the $2.4 range.
