I'm trying to understand the distinction between USDT and TRC20. I've heard that TRC20 offers faster transactions and lower fees compared to USDT, but I'd like a more detailed breakdown of their differences, especially in terms of their use cases and how they interact with the TRON network and other blockchain platforms. What is the difference between USDT and TRC20?

This means that they share similar properties, such as being stablecoins pegged to the US dollar, and having the same value.

The main difference between the two lies in the blockchain they are issued on.

Despite being issued on different blockchains, the characteristics of USDT-ERC20 and USDT-TRC20 mostly match.
