TRON is in the building

We’re excited to announce the launch of TRON on MetaMask, the latest network in our multichain expansion joining Ethereum, Bitcoin, Solana, Base, and Sei. 

 This means you can now trade TRON based tokens like USDT and stake TRX, all from inside your MetaMask wallet. 

Essential TRON info

Tron’s native token is TRX. When you stake TRX on MetaMask Mobile App, you'll earn Bandwidth and Energy, both of which can be used in place of typical transaction fees. (Staking TRX is currently only supported on mobile.)

Bandwidth: Measures the size of a transaction in bytes.

Energy: Measures how much computation a smart contract call needs. 

If you don’t have enough Bandwidth or Energy for a given transaction, no sweat. TRX will just be deducted as a fee to cover this amount.

How do I start using Tron?

All you have to do is update MetaMask Mobile App or Extension to the latest version, and a Tron address will automatically be generated within your multichain account.

Ready to trade on Tron? Update MetaMask now and get started.
