TRON Connects $85B USDT Network To LI.FI In Cross-Chain DeFi Push

TRON(TRX) has integrated with cross-chain aggregator LI.FI, connecting its $85 billion Tether(USDT) base to the wider DeFi stack.

Stablecoin Bridge Goes Live

The integration was announced by TRON DAO on Apr. 21. Developers building on LI.FI can now route orders through TRON without a separate bridge setup.

End users get stablecoin swaps and bridges in and out of TRON inside the apps they already use.

TRON's network processes more than $21 billion in daily transfer volume and holds over 13 billion total transactions to date.

Zentner Sees Seamless Liquidity

LI.FI CEO and co-founder Philipp Zentner called the move a natural step toward making stablecoin liquidity accessible without extra integration work.

TRON DAO spokesperson Sam Elfarra said the tie-up reduces friction for teams moving assets between chains. The chain has historically run parallel to Ethereum-centric DeFi, handling remittances and OTC settlement that barely touched standard DeFi wallets.

A second integration, with DeFi aggregator Jumper, went live on Apr. 22, extending TRON access across 14 additional blockchains. TRX has traded near $0.33 this week, holding above $0.30 support and pressing resistance around $0.3346 after a 6.4% monthly gain.
