TRON Emerges as International Access Point for PayPal USD, Transforming the Landscape of Cross-Chain Transactions

September 18, 2025 - Geneva, Switzerland -

DAO has revealed that USD (PYUSD) is now available on the TRON network via . The stablecoin, issued as the open-access token PYUSD0, utilizes LayerZero’s Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) Standard. This launch allows both individual users and institutions to utilize PYUSD throughout LayerZero’s network, further strengthening TRON’s position as a settlement platform for stablecoin payments and daily transactions.

Bringing PYUSD0 onto TRON signals a wider partnership among PayPal, LayerZero, and TRON to broaden the reach and functionality of stablecoins within the global digital economy. TRON’s founder Justin Sun highlighted that the initiative supports TRON’s goal to deliver reliable, efficient, and broadly accessible financial services. LayerZero Labs CEO Bryan Pellegrino noted that stablecoins form the backbone of the cryptocurrency ecosystem, allowing for scalable and interoperable financial activity between chains.

This rollout builds on LayerZero’s recent purchase of Stargate, which brought the Hydra model for extending assets across chains. Thanks to this integration, PYUSD now appears on TRON seamlessly—users do not need to take any specific steps. Both PYUSD and PYUSD0 operate as a single, interchangeable stablecoin across various blockchains, ensuring a smooth user experience and maintaining the stablecoin’s consistent value across networks.

TRON has established itself as a significant force within the stablecoin industry, boasting over 332 million accounts, upwards of 11 billion total transactions, and a total value locked (TVL) of $28 billion as of September 2025. The platform facilitates around 9 million transactions every day and reached $1 billion in protocol revenue in each of the first two quarters of 2025. These figures make TRON one of the busiest blockchains for stablecoin activity, with its efficient throughput and low transaction fees making it particularly well-suited for remittances and both B2C and B2B payments.

The integration of PYUSD with TRON is anticipated to further strengthen the network’s impact on worldwide remittance and payment markets, especially in areas like Latin America, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), and the Asia-Pacific region, where stablecoins are increasingly relied upon for international payments. TRON’s rapid processing speeds and minimal fees offer both institutions and consumers a dependable, affordable payment infrastructure.

This development also underlines the increasing intersection between established payment networks and decentralized blockchain technology. By combining PayPal’s global digital payments capabilities with LayerZero’s cross-chain framework and TRON’s international network, the alliance aims to create a modern financial system characterized by security, transparency, and inclusivity. This move is expected to boost stablecoin adoption for diverse financial uses, such as treasury operations, sending money abroad, and international B2B transactions.

According to industry experts, the involvement of a regulated stablecoin provider like PayPal within TRON’s ecosystem could spark greater institutional engagement, provided the project maintains transparent reserve management and regulatory compliance. The synergy between a stablecoin issuer, cross-chain protocol, and a high-volume settlement network is seen as essential for the expansion of interoperable stablecoin solutions.

Guided by its community as a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), TRON DAO has championed blockchain-driven financial innovation since its inception in May 2018. The network has long supported the largest circulating supply of

, now surpassing $76 billion. The addition of PYUSD0 further reinforces TRON’s role as a worldwide platform for digital asset settlements, committed to its vision of decentralizing both the internet and financial systems for billions of users.
