Boosty Labs, a blockchain infrastructure developer, has introduced a comprehensive design for a Tron Settlement Batching Layer.
The proposal was unveiled on the CTDG Dev Hub on Nov. 14, inviting validators, developers, and community members to review it publicly.
The core concept of the proposal revolves around consolidating multiple transactions into a single on-chain submission.
This approach not only eases the burden on the mainnet but also reduces fees for high-volume users, ultimately aiding Tron in scaling as more enterprises rely on it for stablecoin transfers.
Given Tron’s significant role in global USDT circulation, the proposal holds strategic importance and is timely.
If approved, the design will be implemented in phases, starting with the deployment of the settlement contract and fee module on the testnet, followed by security audits, integration of aggregator nodes, and a public verification library, before being rolled out on the mainnet post community approval.
How batching will operate

The design introduces an off-chain processing layer that collects, verifies, and compresses transactions before committing them on-chain.
All settlements remain linked directly to the Tron mainnet without the need for new bridges, separate chains, or additional tokens.
This methodology provides an advantage over conventional Layer-2 models that rely on external infrastructure.
Transactions are accumulated off-chain until they meet a certain threshold. They are then verified and consolidated into a single batch with cryptographic proofs.
Only this batch is submitted to the blockchain, which validates the proof and finalizes the settlement.
This process minimizes redundant work on the mainnet, enabling it to function more efficiently while managing a higher volume of economic activity.
To cater to diverse user requirements, Boosty Labs suggests three fee tiers based on urgency. Instant mode offers immediate settlement at a premium rate.
Delayed mode provides moderate waiting times at standard prices.
Batch mode targets exchanges, payment processors, and other high-volume users who can wait for the next batch in exchange for significant fee savings.
Targeting high-volume entities

An integral aspect of the proposal is an automated system that identifies users who can benefit the most from batching.
It assesses transaction frequency, transfer amount, and distribution patterns to ascertain batch eligibility.
Accounts conducting over 50 stablecoin transfers daily, moving amounts exceeding $10,000 regularly, or distributing funds to more than 25 recipients weekly could be included in a whitelist managed by a smart contract.
The proposal aims to reduce fees to approximately 0.05 TRX per recipient in batches.
For exchanges and enterprise platforms conducting thousands of transfers daily, the savings could be substantial.
Significance for Tron

Tron currently hosts more than half of the global circulating USDT supply.
Its network has emerged as a favored settlement layer for exchanges, payment processors, and users seeking predictable, cost-effective transfers.
Native batching bolsters this position by reducing unnecessary on-chain load and streamlining network activity.
This translates to operational efficiency for high-volume users, a more scalable system for validators in the long run, and consistent fees for everyday users.
For Tron itself, batching paves the way for increased transaction throughput without altering the underlying consensus model.
