Rent vs burn: what one USDT transfer costs
Burning TRX pays the network for the same amount of energy. Renting pays the 1 hour price in the table. The saving is the burn price minus that rental. A recipient with a zero USDT balance needs 131,000 energy instead of 65,000, so the fee is about twice as large. Why a new recipient costs more.

Why this is the lowest price
gasrent does not sell energy itself. Every 15 seconds the crawl walks energy aggregators and keeps the lowest sample. The order is filled at the cheapest price available when you place it. Payment comes from TRX already on the account. Renting does not remove the need for that balance.
A supplier that only sells fixed packs may deliver more energy than you asked, and only when that pack does not cost more than burning the energy you wanted. How the minimum is chosen is in how a rental price is chosen. Fixed packs are in what if a seller only sells fixed packs.
Which duration to pick
15 minutes is the rental for one transfer you send straight away. 1 hour is the usual length. 1 day and 3 days are for the same address sending again while the energy is still there. A longer rental usually costs more in total, though each duration is priced on its own, and energy you have not spent at the end is gone.
The table shows 65,000 and 131,000 energy for all four energy durations: 15 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day and 3 days. Other sizes, up to 4,000,000 energy, are priced the same way when you quote or order them. Read how long a rental should last and how many transfers fit in one order. Bandwidth is a separate rental, from 5 minutes to 7 days: rent TRON bandwidth.
