Justin Sun, founder of Tron, said on X(Twitter) that network transaction fees have been rising as TRX climbs during the current bull run, and he told the community the Tron Super Representatives will adjust fees as needed to keep the network competitive.

The comment came after users asked why the costs to move funds were higher than usual. Sun said the team will review fee settings and act based on actual conditions to protect users and the network’s standing.

Rising fees and the response

Many Tron users have noticed higher costs to send tokens as TRX gains value. These fees are set in TRX, so when the token price goes up, the dollar cost to move funds can climb too. 

Users raised questions in forums and on social media. Sun answered directly on X and said the Super Representatives are watching the situation. He promised the community that fee changes will follow real conditions rather than guesswork.

Why fees move with the token

Tron set its system so that network activity is paid in TRX, and that gave the chain its reputation for low and fast transfers. But that design also ties the real cost to the market value of TRX. 

When the token rallies, money to pay fees becomes worth more in fiat terms. That makes routine transfers feel more costly for casual users, and Sun and his team see that as a risk to Tron’s long-term appeal.

Competition and the bigger picture

Sun framed the issue as more than a cost fight, he said Tron must remain attractive in a crowded blockchain world. Ethereum still leads many decentralised finance areas, but is known for high gas fees.

Newer chains such as Solana and Avalanche have won users with lower costs and strong throughput. Sun’s note signals that Tron wants to match or beat those chains on price and performance while staying stable for large users and services.

Early action to calm users

Sun’s message aims to prevent frustration from building, and he said the team will act early and not wait until complaints grow. The goal is to protect the network’s user base and to keep a steady growth path. 

Tron’s leaders are aware that sustained high fees could push users to rivals. The comment also shows the community has a voice and can push for changes.

Legal dispute with Bloomberg

Separately, Sun filed a lawsuit in Delaware against Bloomberg over a recent story. He claims the outlet disclosed sensitive financial details about his crypto holdings. 

Sun says that disclosure could cause serious harm, and Bloomberg pushed back. The company argues that asking a court for a temporary restraining order would amount to prior restraint and would harm press freedoms under the First Amendment. 

Bloomberg told the court that such orders are only allowed in rare cases, and it does not see those conditions here.

What this means for users

Tron users should keep an eye out for any kind of official announcements about new fee rules and upcoming software updates. If the Super Representatives choose to reduce the fees or revise the mechanism for setting them, the new cost for transfers can decrease. 

User confidence rests on a predictable tariff environment. How Tron steers the delicate balance between sustaining network integrity and retaining minimal charges will ultimately determine whether users remain loyal or seek alternatives.
