Questions, answered

How much does it cost to buy TRON right now?

At 2026-10-04 14:48 UTC, $1,000 of TRX cost $3.88 all-in at Kraken (fee plus spread) — cheapest of 2 exchanges.

Why does the same TRON buy cost different amounts per exchange?

Fee schedules differ per exchange, and each order book carries its own spread; fee plus spread is the all-in cost compared.

Why the advertised fee misleads

Spread is a price, not a percentage.

0.10% on $1,000 is one dollar; the spread you cross is often more — ranked by TRX received. Method →
