Tron has attracted a lot of buzz in the past 24 hours, with its token rising over 20%. The token hit a new all-time high for the first time in seven years, rising to $0.43 before seeing a correction to $0.34 at press time. With the recent rise, TRX's monthly gain has stretched over 100%.

TRX's rise may be attributed to increased activity on the Tron blockchain over the past few days. 

Tron's protocol daily revenue hit a new all-time high of $21.6 million on Tuesday, representing a 98% increase, per Lookonchain data.

Likewise, TRONSCAN, a block explorer for the Tron blockchain, revealed that Tron's total transactions exceeded 9 billion with total accounts rising to 276 million.

A notable reason for the increase is Tron's stablecoin dominance among emerging markets. According to Messari Crypto, Tron's monthly stablecoin transfer volume surpassed $500 billion in November — a $150 billion YoY increase— outperforming blockchains like Base and Solana.

USDT supply on the blockchain also rose 25% year-to-date, indicating the blockchain's strong dominance with the stablecoin. The Ethereum blockchain only recently flipped Tron in USDT supply — the first time in two years.

30% of the blockchain's stablecoin transactions stem from wallets holding less than $1K, with the total number of addresses with crypto holdings surpassing 120 million users, per IntoTheBlock data. This indicates that Tron is seeing increased use from retailers.
