Tonkeeper’s USDT-TRC-20 feature resolves Web3 bandwidth challenges
Tonkeeper highlighted that a key challenge in Web3 was maintaining sufficient TRX to cover transaction fees. It added that USDT transfers on the TRON network required energy and bandwidth. The company noted that this meant users could use their available bandwidth or purchase additional resources with TRX.

The company said the battery automatically calculated the required energy and bandwidth. It added that it covered the costs and processed the transaction without needing TRX.
Tonkeeper revealed that since its launch, Tonkeeper Battery has supported over 9 million transactions. It pointed out that the platform was becoming an essential tool for users managing on-chain payments.
The company noted that Tonkeeper users were required to launch the desktop wallet and open settings to access the new TRC20 feature. It added that once the TRC20 was enabled, they could charge the Tonkeeper battery with the supported tokens or a bank card to start enjoying the gasless transactions.
