What one USDT
transfer costs now
No data yet. The calculator needs the live energy price and the measured energy of a USDT transfer from the TRON chain, and neither could be read at this moment. Nothing is shown rather than an estimate — please try again in a few minutes.

How much is the USDT TRC20 fee right now?
The fee is the energy the transfer needs multiplied by the network's energy price, burned in TRX. The live figures are not available at this moment, so no number is shown.
Why does a new address cost more?
The USDT contract keeps one balance entry per address. Sending to an address whose USDT balance is zero makes the contract create that entry, and writing a new storage entry costs more energy than changing an existing one. What counts is the balance at the time of the transfer: an address that once held USDT and is back at zero costs the higher amount again.
Is renting energy safe?
Renting means a provider delegates energy to your address for a set time; your coins never leave your wallet and nobody needs your private key or seed phrase. Pay only from a wallet you control, only the price shown, and be wary of anyone who asks you to sign a permission or approval instead of a plain payment.
Do I need TRX to send USDT on TRON?
Yes, unless the sending address has enough energy and bandwidth. The fee is not taken in USDT: energy the address does not have is paid by burning TRX from the same address. If there is not enough TRX for the burn, the transfer fails and the TRX spent up to that point is still gone.
Where do these numbers come from?
From the TRON chain itself: the energy and bandwidth prices are chain parameters, and the energy one USDT transfer needs is measured by simulating the transfer against the USDT contract. The site reads them every few minutes and shows the block they belong to. When a value cannot be read, it is left out rather than replaced by an estimate.
