On September 29, 2018, TRON had a global livestream event to update the community about the progress TRON is making.
First, in the spirit of competition, Justin Sun, CEO of TRON, noted that the TRON network now has more unique addresses than EOS and that TRON gained more unique addresses in the first 95 days than Ethereum in the same time period when it was launched.
Two upgrades are scheduled for the TRON mainnet before the end of the year. The first on November 15 and the other towards the end of December.
TRON’s most recent upgrade, version 3.1, has been updated by about 90% of nodes.
The team also gave October 8 as the estimated date of launching the TRON Virtual Machine on the mainnet.
Below is a pictorial preview of version 3.2 that is estimated to be on the mainnet by November 15.
Project Atlas is the codename for the integration of TRON with BitTorrent. This will entail the creation of a TX-20 token designed to incentivize users to share files.
This change will not be mandatory as users will still be able to use BitTorrent the way it currently is. However, the token features will be there as options on any device used to access BitTorrent. Also, BitTorrent will stay free.
