Backpack’s wallet now connects users to TRON’s token ecosystem, adding a route for Tether (USDT) transfers and decentralized finance apps through its mobile app and browser extension.
Backpack added the network Nov. 9. The wallet supports storing, sending and receiving tokens issued on TRON, including Tether (USDT) in the network’s TRC-20 format.
Users can move supported tokens between TRON and other networks through the wallet’s bridge function. A single interface displays holdings across multiple networks. The wallet’s browser can open TRON applications such as SUN.io, whose services include swaps, staking and liquidity provision.
Selecting TRON in the wallet creates an address that uses the user’s existing seed phrase. The setup is self-custodial, with users retaining control of their assets. They need TRON (TRX), the network’s native token, to pay transaction fees.
Wallet access follows Backpack Exchange’s July 29 introduction of TRX/USD spot trading and TRX-PERP perpetual markets. Those products offered TRX trading where available and may not be accessible in some regions. The exchange launch and wallet support serve separate functions: the first adds trading products, while the wallet handles asset storage, transfers and app access.
TRON’s stablecoin settlement reached $2.2126 trillion across the network in Q3 2026, up 5.1% from the previous quarter. Tether and USDD together had $93.88 billion in supply on TRON during the quarter. Those network-wide totals do not indicate how much activity ran through Backpack. EconoTimes has previously covered TRON’s Q3 stablecoin transfer totals, a separate measure of network activity.
