How to Sell ENERGY or Bandwidth in the TRON Blockchain and Make TRX from It?

If you have more than 5,202 TRX - congratulations! - you can sell your ENERGY to other users and earn from it! Please note that 5,202 TRX is the current amount as of October 8, 2024, and it may change, so always check the official calculator for how much ENERGY one frozen TRX provides. Of course, to earn more significantly, you will need more TRX coins, but everything comes with time, and you can start right now. Let’s go through what you need for this and how it works. I have prepared a brief description for you, written in simple and understandable language.

For this process, I recommend using the Google Chrome browser and the TronLink wallet, which should be installed as a browser extension. Once again, I want to remind you about security to avoid losing your money! Use a separate browser only for working with your wallet to protect yourself from viruses, loss of passwords, and keys. For browsing other websites, use another separate browser. Only install the wallet from the official website. Do not install the wallet from partner sites or other communities. Even if the site name matches and it is shown by the search engine, always use the official link to avoid potential phishing. This is a brief reminder about safety when working with your wallet; you can read more about it in another article, and now let's get back to earning from selling ENERGY in the TRON blockchain.

In the TRON blockchain, there are two types of resources: ENERGY and Bandwidth. You can sell both resources. The selling principle is the same, but you should determine which will be more profitable for you based on current prices. To obtain ENERGY or Bandwidth, you need to freeze coins in your wallet. This must be your personal wallet, not an exchange address. Use only the TronLink wallet and the Google Chrome browser. If you freeze 5,202 TRX, you will receive 64,400 ENERGY, and we will call this "1 slot of ENERGY." This ENERGY is what we will sell.

During the freezing process, you need to select which resources you want to receive. Initially, I recommend working with ENERGY and connecting Bandwidth later. Once you have frozen your TRX coins, don’t forget to vote for a Super Representative to earn an additional 4% per year in TRX coins. If these terms sound unclear to you now, don’t worry; it’s much simpler than it seems, and I will help you navigate this journey from obtaining ENERGY to selling it and making a profit. So, we have frozen the TRX coins and received ENERGY. Now, this ENERGY can be sold!

For example, we ended up with 64,400 ENERGY. Of course, this is a small amount, but we use it as a minimal quantity for the sake of example. If you do not use this ENERGY, you will consistently have 64,400 ENERGY in your wallet until you unfreeze your TRX coins. I will discuss the unfreezing process separately, but know that it takes 14 days, during which you will not have access to your coins, and you will not receive ENERGY from the freeze. After 14 days, you will regain your coins; just remember to click one more button, and your ENERGY will disappear.

If you conduct a transaction, such as making a USDT TRC20 transfer and using 64,400 ENERGY as a fee, the amount of ENERGY will be restored to 64,400 within 24 hours, and you can use the ENERGY again. In other words, ENERGY restores fully within 24 hours. If you have 1,000,000 ENERGY and use it all, then after 24 hours, you will have 1,000,000 ENERGY again, which can be used once more, and this cycle repeats every day.

To sell ENERGY, log in to the website using your TronLink wallet. Always read the message in your wallet carefully before clicking confirm or cancel. On unfamiliar websites, always click cancel and do not log in. If you fully trust the site and want to log in to your account via your wallet, then proceed with authorization. Your coins and ENERGY will not be deducted during this process. After logging in, find the best order for selling ENERGY. Look at the Price field and the price in SUN; the higher the number, the better the price for us. For example, it’s better to sell ENERGY for 70 SUN than for 60 SUN, and even better for 100 SUN or more. Everything depends on market conditions and demand. Prices change frequently, and you should always choose the best offer at that specific moment. Don’t confuse things; when buying ENERGY, always look for the lowest price, and when selling, aim for the highest. Also, pay attention to the period for which you are selling ENERGY. This could be 10 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours, 1 day, 3 days, and other options. For example, if you sold 64,400 ENERGY (1 slot) for 1 day, after 24 hours, you will get your slot back, but it may be completely empty or partially restored. So, you will not receive 64,400 ENERGY back, but a lesser amount. This could be 0 if the buyer immediately spent the ENERGY right before the rental period ended, or it could be a number close to 64,400 if the client spent the ENERGY only once right after the purchase, and it has already started to restore in their wallet.

The mechanism for selling ENERGY is simple: the more ENERGY you have and the more you sell, the more you earn! Try starting; it's not difficult at all! There are also “secrets” that allow you to optimize the process and earn even more; this comes with experience. Some points will be described in other articles.

Great! Now we’ve learned how to save on transaction fees when transferring USDT TRC20 on the TRON blockchain! You can explore more interesting materials in the "How It Works?" section.
