TRON Integrates TRX with the Base Network via LayerZero

This integration allows seamless bridging of the native TRX token to the Base network, making it accessible to users through decentralized exchanges such as Aerodrome in the Base app. This partnership opens new opportunities for cross-chain interaction and expands the TRON ecosystem.

According to details published in The Block, the integration is made possible by LayerZero technology, which ensures secure and efficient asset movement between networks. TRON DAO, as a community focused on decentralizing the internet through blockchain and dApps, emphasizes that this step reduces friction between networks and supports secure on-chain activity. TRON founder Justin Sun noted:

"The integration between TRON and Base is a significant step toward blockchain networks working more seamlessly together. This is an important milestone in expanding connections and scaling blockchain networks."

TRON is already demonstrating impressive metrics: over $23 trillion in total transfer volume, 350 million user accounts, $23 billion in TVL, 10 million daily transactions, and 3.37 million daily active accounts. This integration complements these achievements, allowing TRX to integrate into the Coinbase ecosystem, which could potentially increase the token's liquidity and accessibility.

Why Is This Important for the TRX Network?

This integration holds strategic importance for the TRX network, as it expands its interoperability and accessibility in the global blockchain space. First, partnering with Base, which is part of the Coinbase ecosystem, opens TRX to millions of users from one of the world's largest crypto exchanges, reducing entry barriers and increasing adoption. Base, as a Layer 2 on Ethereum, offers low fees and high speed, which perfectly aligns with TRON's strengths - speed and scalability.

Second, LayerZero enables seamless cross-chain interaction, allowing TRON developers to deploy dApps on other networks and vice versa, stimulating innovation and expansion of DeFi protocols. This enhances network security, as nearly half of the TRX supply is staked, increasing demand for the token and stability.

Overall, the integration contributes to creating a more interconnected infrastructure, reduces transaction friction, and supports real-world usage at scale, which could lead to growth in TVL, user activity, and TRX value. In the context of recent updates, such as a 60% fee reduction in Q3 2025, this makes TRON even more competitive in its role as a global settlement layer.
