Have you ever heard of a blockchain whose name is inspired by a movie? Let me introduce TRON and its native token, TRX. 

TRON and TRX

TRON is a decentralized blockchain-based operating system that was launched by Justin Sun in 2017. The TRON Foundation was established in the same year, while the TRON mainnet was launched in 2018 after migrating from the Ethereum network. 

On its website, TRON shared that one of its goals is to create a “decentralized internet” by using blockchain technology and smart contracts. This could be made possible by allowing content creators full ownership rights, direct interaction with their audiences, and eliminating intermediaries such as streaming services, app stores, or music sites.

Basically, TRON claims to allow content creators to sell their work directly to their audience on the platform; this will lead to higher rewards for their efforts, as per the developers. 

Tronix (TRX) is the native currency of the TRON network, which is used for transactions, governance, and benefits on the platform. Technically, content creators and their audiences must use TRX to pay for the content and dApps on the platform, and in return, they can also receive TRX as rewards, such as voting rights and airdrops. 

In terms of transactions, the network also offers cheaper but faster fees. It is said that TRON only charges $0.000005 per transaction while processing up to 2,000 transactions per second (TPS). This is much faster compared to Ethereum’s 15 TPS.
