TRON has been recognized by the U.S. Department of Commerce and selected for the authorized public blockchain list for releasing U.S. GDP data

Recently, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced that starting from July 2025, it will simultaneously release the U.S. quarterly GDP data on nine major blockchains, including TRON. This initiative marks the first time a U.S. federal agency has published national-level economic statistics on a blockchain and represents a key milestone for blockchain technology's entry into the national governance system. As the only selected Chinese and Asian public chain, TRON's inclusion highlights its engineering reliability and global coverage capability, providing a solid foundation and demonstration path for the wide reach, rapid verification, and secondary utilization of official data.

TRON founder Justin Sun stated, "This demonstrates TRON's important position and technical credibility in the global blockchain ecosystem."

Federal Data "On-Chain": The U.S. Continues to Release Global Signals

According to revised estimates from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), the annual GDP growth rate for the U.S. in July 2025 is projected to be 3.3%. The official hash value of this key data, as well as the total GDP in certain scenarios, will be published on nine blockchains: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, TRON, Stellar, Avalanche, Arbitrum One, Polygon PoS, and Optimism. Meanwhile, oracles such as Pyth and Chainlink, along with mainstream exchanges like Coinbase, Gemini, and Kraken, are also assisting in ensuring the distribution and verification of the data.

U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo stated, "The U.S. Department of Commerce and 'crypto president' Donald Trump have chosen to publish economic statistics on the blockchain, which is very appropriate. We are making the truth of the U.S. economy immutable and publicly available globally in an unprecedented way, further solidifying the U.S. as the world's blockchain capital."

This statement not only emphasizes the transparency of economic data but also releases a global signal: blockchain is moving from a "financial laboratory" to a "national governance tool," transitioning from the periphery of industry to the core of sovereignty.

Why TRON Was Selected: Verified Global Public Chain Infrastructure

Among the nine selected blockchains, TRON's position is particularly unique. As the only representative of Chinese and Asian public chains, TRON's ability to enter the U.S. Department of Commerce's "trust list" stems from years of continuous technological accumulation and ecological expansion.

TRON's inclusion is seen by the industry as a concentrated reflection of its infrastructure stability and wide coverage capability. Multiple third-party studies observed in the second quarter of 2025 show that the TRON network maintains high-frequency operation under real load, with daily transaction volumes ranging from approximately 7.5 million to 9.5 million, and active addresses stabilizing between approximately 2.3 million and 2.7 million; following recent dynamic adjustments on the fee side, the network continues to maintain low costs and high accessibility in terms of throughput and latency, providing favorable conditions for the global dissemination and rapid verification of official hashes.

The scale of stablecoin settlements is another key dimension for assessing the blockchain's "public distribution channel capability." By mid-2025, the USDT supply on TRON had exceeded $82 billion, maintaining strong stickiness and capacity for high-frequency scenarios such as cross-border small payments, remittances, and e-commerce. After the macro data is on-chain, combined with the account coverage and transfer radius of such "stablecoin mainnet" networks, the speed of reaching official data and end-to-end verification efficiency is expected to be further enhanced.

Additionally, TRON has built a diversified ecosystem that includes DeFi, stablecoins, cross-chain assets, NFTs, and GameFi, forming a large user base and practical use cases. Since its establishment, TRON has continuously promoted regulatory communication and compliance exploration with multiple countries around the world. This open and cooperative stance has earned it the trust of international institutions and has become an important background for this selection.

Far-Reaching Significance: The Combination of Blockchain and Public Governance

The innovative practice of the U.S. Department of Commerce represents the successful landing of "concept verification" for blockchain at the national governance level. Economic data is a core indicator of national operation, and its authority has historically relied on the publication by government agencies. Now, by being on-chain, its authenticity, transparency, and immutability are secured by unprecedented technological guarantees. This not only enhances public trust in official data but also provides a reference paradigm for other governments worldwide.

For TRON, this collaboration with the U.S. Department of Commerce opens up new imaginative spaces for its future development.

First, at the national application level, TRON further solidifies its position as a public data infrastructure with high performance, low cost, and secure scalability. This means its public chain capabilities have been recognized by national-level institutions, providing credible endorsement for future on-chain practices involving economic data, public statistics, and even social governance. With the acceleration of global digitalization, TRON is expected to become a key bridge connecting government data and public use.

At the same time, this endorsement injects strong momentum into TRON's international cooperation and industrial value upgrade. TRON has the opportunity to be applied in more governance scenarios of international organizations and multinational institutions, further extending its influence from finance and payment to public governance and data transparency, amplifying ecological value and industry voice.

As the U.S. incorporates blockchain into its national data release system, the public value of the blockchain industry is being redefined. TRON's selection is not only a technological collaboration but also a strategic recognition at the global governance level. In the future, TRON will continue to uphold an open and innovative spirit, promoting the application of blockchain in data governance, financial inclusion, cross-border payments, and even digital nations across more dimensions.

At this historic juncture, TRON once again stands at the forefront of the industry. The decentralized vision it represents is moving from the crypto world to the core areas of the real world.
