I'm trying to understand the difference between
USDT TRC20 and USDT. I know that USDT is a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar, but what does the TRC20 addition mean, and how does it differ from regular USDT in terms of functionality, transaction speed, and cost?

When it comes to transfer fees, TRC20-USDT often offers cheaper options compared to ERC20-USDT.

This is because the Tron network, on which TRC20-USDT operates, is designed to be more efficient and scalable than Ethereum.

On the other hand, ERC20-USDT is USDT issued by Tether on the Ethereum network.

Despite being issued on different networks, TRC20-USDT and ERC20-USDT are identical in value and function.
