Now a top 10 crypto and worth $14.6 billion you might be wondering, what is TRON?
It’s a blockchain-based decentralized protocol that aims to construct a worldwide free content entertainment system with the blockchain and distributed storage technology.
So with TRON every user can freely publish, store, and own data. And content providers will no longer have to pay high channel fees to centralized platforms like Google Play and Apple’s App Store.
Here’s TRON’s roadmap for how they’re going to accomplish this:
Exodus – Data Liberation (Aug 2017 to Dec 2018) – will provide users with a completely free and reliable platform for data publication, storage and dissemination.
Odyssey – Content Empowerment (Jan 2019 to Jun 2020) – economic incentives for content creation, distribution, and dissemination.
Great Voyage – Personal ICOs (Jul 2020 to Jul 2021) – TRON adds income measurement, dividend payment, and management of supporters to go from the ‘fan economy’ to the ‘fan finance.’
Apollo – Free Movement of Value (Aug 2021 to Mar 2023) – decentralized token trading of user-issued tokens. Establish a DEX.
Star Trek – Traffic Monetization (Apr 2023 to Sep 2025) – Online gaming platform w SDK.
Eternity – Traffic Conversion (Sep 2025 to Sep 2027) – Same as Star Trek.
Looks to me a lot needs to be done and it’s already valued at $15 billion. But many are betting CEO Justin Sun will pull it off.
He’s also the found of Peiwo, China’s Snapchat, which will be the first application on TRON.
Sun also had a stint at Ripple and is a protégé of Alibaba founder Jack Ma.
Many think he will be the next Jack Ma.
Regarding TRON, Sun has been sending out some positive tweets recently, like the one below, which has helped spur the recent rally.
TRON native asset is the TRX token. You can buy it on Binance, Liqui, HitBTC, EtherDelta, and Qryptos.
Me, I’m just watching from the sidelines. What do you think of TRON?
