## Source summary

CoinDesk reports that Polygon Labs added TRON to Open Money Stack, offering payment and remittance businesses a single integration for USDT funding, transfers and cash-out. Polygon says it also supports transfers between TRON and supported EVM networks. The cited USD 94 billion is USDT circulating on TRON, not investment raised or newly processed payments. The integration does not remove payment firms' licensing obligations.

## Why it matters
