TRON Regains Position as Leading Blockchain for Transaction Volume Among Major Altcoin Chains

The TRON network has been making a notable impact across altcoin ecosystems, regaining its position as the leading blockchain for transaction volume among major altcoin chains.

The TRON network has maintained its position as the leading blockchain for transaction volume among major altcoin chains, handling roughly 43% of transactions across these networks as of October 30.

This recent spike has pushed TRON to the top position for transaction processing in October, surpassing other major altcoin networks and highlighting its relevance in the current crypto market.

According to a CryptoQuant analysis, TRON processed approximately 230 million transactions in October, a significant increase in activity. On October 24, the network peaked, handling 10.46 million transactions, roughly 25% higher than its 30-day average.

This high level of activity showcases TRON's increased usage, which aligns with its performance in 2024, when it frequently led in transaction volume. However, it is worth noting that between late August and early October, TRON's transaction dominance experienced a slight decline as other networks saw temporary spikes in activity.

Despite this brief shift, TRON's return to the forefront suggests the asset is reclaiming its crown and maintaining its status as a “highly utilized” blockchain network for altcoin transactions.

The analysis suggests that TRON's current dominance in transaction volume is likely to persist, considering the network's capability to handle a vast number of transactions daily. This aspect sets TRON apart from many other altcoin platforms, adding to its appeal and supporting its adoption within various blockchain-based applications and projects.

It is also important to note that the network's native token (TRX) has seen a positive trend in the market recently. Particularly following the broader price increase in the crypto market led by Bitcoin, TRX has followed the overall bullish trend, increasing by 5.6% in the past fortnight and 3.1% in the past week.

However, TRX's price performance in the past day has seen a slight correction, falling from its 24-hour high of $0.1705 to a price of $0.1684 at the time of writing. Additionally, TRX's daily trading volume has also decreased in the past few days, going from over $600 million last weekend to below $500 million.
