TRON devs propose TIP-6780 upgrade to strengthen EVM alignment with Ethereum

TRON’s core development team has unveiled a strategic proposal, TIP-6780, aimed at modernizing how the blockchain handles contract destruction while ensuring long-term alignment with Ethereum’s changing standards.
Announced today, TIP-6780 builds on the earlier TIP-652, which discouraged dependence on the SELFDESTRUCT Opcode and signaled impending restrictions.
The innovative update mirrors Ethereum’s EIP-6780, reflecting TRON’s commitment to ensuring that builders working across different EVM-based ecosystems interact with consistent behavior.
That’s crucial as on-chain interoperability continues to expand in the growing blockchain industry.
Meanwhile, the TRON platform will enjoy top-notch compatibility with Ethereum, simplifying the integration and migration of cross-chain systems, decentralized applications, and developers.
Further, creators will access enhanced contract security.
The announcement added:
This change encourages developers to adopt more robust and predictable contract design patterns, moving away from opcodes that are considered unstable or are planned for future deprecation.
What does TIP-6780 change?
SELFDESTRUCT allows contracts to erase themselves and offload remaining assets for years.
Meanwhile, the proposed upgrade aims to change that approach.
TIP-6780 reduces the circumstances that trigger full deletion while directing developers to harmless contract lifecycle patterns.
The proposed system will remove contracts’ data, including its storage, code, and account, if users opt for SELFDESTRUCT during the transaction creation.
On the other hand, the contract remains unaltered in all other circumstances.
The opcode will suspend execution and move assets to a designated address without deleting structural data.
Moreover, no burning happens when a contract chooses itself as the specified destination for the transferred tokens.
Also, the proposal increases SELFDESTRUCT’s energy cost from 0 to 5,000 to discourage unnecessary usage. The team stated:
The fixed Energy cost of the SELFDESTRUCT opcode is adjusted from 0 to 5,000. This raises the execution cost to further deter misuse.
Enriching TRON-Ethereum consistency
Mimicking Ethereum’s evolution is more than a technical choice.
The move is strategic. With EIP-6780-like behavior, TRON aims to simplify the work of developers building wallets, applications, and infrastructure designed to run across several chains.
Teams can port tools meant for Ethereum smoothly, while ensuring predictable developer expectations on different ecosystems.
Moreover, TIP-6780 promotes a more transparent and clear smart contract model.
Without the randomness of SELFDESTRUCT capabilities, developers will enjoy bolstered contract security and reduced attack surfaces.
TRX price outlook
The altcoin mirrored broader declines today. It is trading at $0.2862 after a slight 0.68 slump in the last 24 hours.
The nearly 40% decline in daily trading volume indicates substantial selling pressure after TRX lost 5% the previous week.
Bulls should hold above the key support zone of $0.29 to fuel short-term stability.
However, failure to do that might catalyze continued slumps and consolidations until broad-based recoveries.
