CryptoQuant highlighted that the WTRX swap volumes are also registering excellent growth. There were 8.6 billion WTRX swapped in June alone after a high point of 15.5 billion WTRX in May. The monthly average of 2024 was 8.8 billion WTRX. This volume of activity is a sign of greater demand for TRX and the increased use of the TRON network.
WTRX Dominates SunSwap
SunSwap transactions are nevertheless increased compared to past years, even after experiencing a slight drop after the meme coin boom late in 2024. The average transaction in 2025 is 516,000 per month. This is significantly higher than the 316,000 reported in 2024, excluding the meme-driven outbreak. The increasing adoption of TRON is evident by the number of users using DeFi services on its network.

The leading trading pair on SunSwap is WTRX. This pair was used to swap 1.3 million in the year 2025. It dominates 62% of swaps among the 10 trading pairs. Other prominent pairs are the WTRX/SUNDOG pair, which is a meme coin, and the JST/SUNDTs pair, corresponding to the JUST Defi platform. The reduction of WTRX-dominated swaps is a signal of the diversification of DeFi activity on TRON.
The amount of lending activity carried out within the TRON JustLend platform has also increased in 2025. The number of daily deposits has more than tripled since January. Total deposit volume was $740 million in April, the second-highest on record. Deposits reached the highest peak of 350 million on June 24 in a single day. Most of the deposits are in USDT and USDD, a decentralized US stablecoin issued by TRON.

TRON JustLend Expansion
The JustLend lending market is also expanding. The average day in 2025 has seen the borrowing activity exceeding $10 million. In other borrowing volumes have soared as high as $47 million. The greatest borrowed coins are USDT, TRX, and USDD. This rise in lending indicates the growing reliance on TRON lending services.
The TRON DeFi ecosystem is emerging as a key competitor in the blockchain field. The increasing utility of the network is characterized by high swap volumes, as well as increasing lending and borrowing activity. Further adoption can be related to the trend of using stablecoins and non-TRX tokens as a swap. During 2025, the TRON blockchain will remain one of the leaders in the DeFi space as more traders, developers, and investors turn to the ecosystem.
