An observation from my detour to CT yesterday was they're still shilling BS numbers to pump their bags like it's 2017. No, it's 2023, crypto is a maturing, integral part of the global financial system, and it's about time we treated it as such.

> At first glance, you may assume that this is because Tron is cheaper, but [...] USDT transfers cost ~$1 on Tron nowadays, so it’s purely just network effects.

Doesn't Tron give each account a few free transfers each day?

Yes, but IIRC those are for TRX transfers. Also, you get some free bandwidth & energy based on TRX staked. Either way, simplifying, people sending USDT on Tron over CEXs, which is the dominant usecase, do pay a $1-$3 withdrawal fee to the CEX. Given the average transfer is hundreds of dollars it's quite negligible
