01 / UNDERSTAND TRON ENERGY
On TRON, a token transfer uses network resources called bandwidth and energy. When an account does not have enough resources, the network deducts TRX to cover the transaction cost.
Bandwidth carries transaction data, while energy is consumed when a smart contract such as TRC-20 USDT is executed.
If your available resources are insufficient, TRX is automatically burned by the network to complete the transaction.
Preparing energy before sending can be more economical than paying the full network fee directly in TRX.
02 / COST EXAMPLE
The video illustrates a USDT transfer where paying the network fee directly could use about 13.27 TRX, while preparing energy first may cost around 3 TRX.
Illustrative example only. Actual resource consumption and cost depend on the receiving address and current TRON network conditions.03 / EXCHANGE ADDRESS
Use the TRON network. The address ends with seven lowercase “o” characters.
