How to send TRX on Tron
- Ask the receiver for a TRX address on Tron (TRC-20) and check the network name on their deposit page matches. TRX on another network is a different token and a deposit on the wrong one is usually lost.
- On the exchange choose TRX, then network TRC-20; the form shows the fee and minimum. Right now the enabled rails are Binance ($0.610), HTX ($0.458) and KuCoin ($0.305).
- Paste the address, send a small test amount first if the sum is large, and wait for about 1 min.
- Paste the address into the address check to confirm it belongs to Tron before confirming; then use the route planner if you want every rail ranked for your amount.

Questions
- Why does the TRX fee on Tron change?
- The on-chain figure is a USDT transfer to an address that already holds USDT (≈64,895 energy + 345 bandwidth); about double to a fresh address, read from trongrid chain parameters. It moves for two reasons: the network's fee market (gas, energy or priority price) rises and falls with demand, and the USD figure follows the TRX price ($0.3 when this page was built). We re-read both every 90 seconds and never fill a gap with an old number.
- What is the minimum TRX withdrawal on TRC-20?
- Right now: Binance 20 TRX, HTX 0.8 TRX and KuCoin 2 TRX. Below the minimum the exchange refuses the withdrawal; at or just above it the flat fee is a large share of what arrives ($0.610 of a 20 TRX withdrawal at Binance).
- Is Tron the cheapest network to send TRX right now?
- No. Solana is cheapest right now at $0.0004 total; Tron is $2.39, rank 4 of 4. Cheapest only matters if the receiver accepts TRX on that network.
