Account Activation

New TRON wallets must be activated before use. Send TRX or TRC-10 tokens to the new address to activate it. Activation costs 1 TRX plus bandwidth fees.
TRC-20 tokens (USDT, USDC) do not activate accounts. You must send TRX or TRC-10 tokens first.

​
Network Fees

TRON uses bandwidth and energy instead of gas fees.
If you lack bandwidth or energy, TRX is automatically burned to cover fees.

​
Typical Costs

A TRC-20 transfer (e.g., USDT) requires ~345 bandwidth and ~64,285 energy:
  • Burning TRX directly: ~13.61 TRX
  • Purchasing energy on MPCVault: 6 TRX for 65,000 energy

​
Buy Energy on MPCVault

  1. Go to Wallets and select your TRON wallet.
  2. Click Buy Energy.
  3. Sign the transaction in the mobile app.
If the recipient has never held the token you’re sending, energy costs may double.
