MoonPay Partners with TRON—U.S. Users Can Now Buy TRX Without Jumping Through Banking Hoops

MoonPay just cut the red tape for TRON investors. The fiat-to-crypto gateway added TRX support for U.S. customers—no more swapping through third-party exchanges or pleading with your bank’s fraud department.

TRX joins the ranks of ‘approved’ altcoins in MoonPay’s U.S. marketplace. The move signals TRON’s creeping legitimacy—or at least its ability to dodge regulators longer than its competitors.

For traders? One less friction point. For Wall Street? Another reminder that crypto’s backdoor economy won’t wait for permission. Just don’t expect your financial advisor to recommend this ‘asset class’ anytime soon.

The TRON network continues to grow

Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson for TRON DAO, emphasized the importance of a reliable onramp for U.S. users. This aligns with its ambitious expansion plans, especially when it comes to facilitating payments.

“Having TRX available for US users on MoonPay’s instant, programmable payments platform is a very positive development for our ecosystem. As a leader in payment and stablecoin solutions, MoonPay’s integration greatly enhances TRON’s trajectory as a global settlement network,” Sam Elfarra, TRON DAO.

On May 7, the supply of stablecoins on TRON reached an all-time high of $71.9 billion. Stablecoins are a key metric, as these assets are typically used for blockchain-based payments. What is more, on May 1, Trump-linked World Liberty Financial announced that its USD1 stablecoin is also available on the TRON network.

Despite the overall downturn in the markets, TRX has remained relatively stable since December. After its all-time high of $0.4407 in December 2024, the token stabilized at around the $2.4 range, where it still currently trades.
