Bitcoin Forum

Hi all,

total newbie here but I would like to learn some more about your opinions about TRON (TRX).

I read some nice articles about them and heavily believe in their goals and ideologies. One of them:

https://www.techbullion.com/blockchain-based-entertainment-company-called-tron-improve-artists-lives/ (https://www.techbullion.com/blockchain-based-entertainment-company-called-tron-improve-artists-lives/)

I am curious about the true potential of these ideas and your stance on the future of Asian/Chinese markets.


Also I was curious why there is no link from Coinmarketcap to here, no hyperlink 'announcement' to this site? May be a dumb question, but as I said, new here.

I invested in it.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2250552.0

it's great that newbies create such themes. I also just started working and dealing with this. so throw more links for people like us

Just found this: https://support.bit-z.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004140293--Announcement-TRX-Launch-Soon (https://support.bit-z.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004140293--Announcement-TRX-Launch-Soon)


And TRX going up up :)

I am hoping on a great platform and $1 in about 2 years, that would be amazing.

I got dropped some by binance exchange so i'm just holding them for now to see what happens with them. I think there ceo is very well connected and was a prodigy of Jack Wu (owner of aliexpress) so he may have some good connections to get the ball rolling on this coin in the future. Oh and also there is a coinmarketcap for tron btw. here's link : https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tron/

Thanks for the answer! Yeah, their network is huge and when that ball starts rolling it will be incredible!

I know there is a coinmarketcap link (looking good btw :)), but sorry I wasn't clear. Normally there is also a link 'announcements', linking to bitcointalk. I was curious why tháts not there...

Tron was at a high price. From what I remember, there was a coin that was named the same thing and it was kind of confusing.

This project have quite big capitalization stack. It is about 160 million dollars. Experts predict that in 2018 Tron coins will get the price of 0,1USD. Humble result seeing the perspectives and potential of the platform.

As I've just read the Tron project is about a free distribution of the intellectual property. Such kind of things are pretty hard to monetize in 21 sentury. The project by itself might be good but I dont think that in future it will be so successfull go keep growth (backed by the success of the project) as fast as the crypto market usually grow. Anyway their chart look good. They have a pretty good pump that increased value of the coin multiple times. Imho now is the good time to sell the coin, not to buy it.

The TRON Union Core Member Peiwo APP Won China’s National High-tech Enterprise Qualification!

https://medium.com/@Tronfoundation/the-tron-union-core-member-peiwo-app-won-chinas-national-high-tech-enterprise-qualification-cee912b6e7c0

Recently, the parent company of Peiwo APP which is core member of TRON Union, Peiwo Huanle (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd. entered the list of “Beijing’s third batch of high-tech enterprises to be identified in 2017” which means that Peiwo APP and the online entertainment forms and technologies of its audio content community have been recognized by the Chinese government, and its market will expand.
The National High-tech Enterprise is a policy set by the Chinese government to promote the rapid development of high-tech enterprises. There are strict standards for inclusion. After being included, companies will enjoy a series of concessions in technology research and development, tax relief and personnel policies so as to help enterprises devote more energy and ability to independent research and development and to enhance their core competitiveness.

Peiwo APP is the largest audio content community in China and even in the world with more than 10 million registered users and over 1 million active users each month. The users are primarily youth aged between 17–25, located in first-tier and second-tier cities in China, as well as North America, Australia, Japan, Western Europe and other regions.
Justin Sun, founder of TRON and Peiwo APP, said: “Peiwo APP is a leading application of online audio content community and a core member of the TRON Union. This access to the national high-tech enterprise qualification represents significant recognition of the long-term persistence of Peiwo APP. Recently, we also noticed that the popularity of online audio entertainment has been on the rise, and the market is constantly expanding. For Peiwo APP, we can only make progress steadily and provide better Service, so as to live up to everyone’s support.”
Tron is a decentralized content protocol that aims to establish a global free content entertainment ecosystem through blockchain technology. It allows each user to freely publish, store, and own data. The content creators will be empowered through the free creation, circulation, and trading of digital assets under decentralized self-governance.
Tron was founded by Justin Sun, the former Greater China chief representative of Ripple. Justin was featured in 2015&2017 Forbes China 30 under 30, 2017 Forbes Asia 30 under 30 and was a member of the first cohort of entrepreneurs at Hupan University, an elite business school established by Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba Group. According to coinmarketcap.com, Tron is among the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market cap, with a total market cap over 10 billion USD.


#Tron San Francisco Office Confirmed! Great news for $TRX!

https://twitter.com/THECRYPTREAPER/status/948554984517488640

TRX is a very good and strong project you can research more for you to see,partners and investors are big and it will be more massive this year.

Thats great, invest in Peiwo.

Some posters on reddit are claiming that tron is not a legit project and is hyped just to make money by selling at top, im not sure if it is true or just fud but tron has definitely created big hype and fomo in the markets.

Nice piece, thanks for the post!

TRX: Seeing through the FUD, FOMO & to the Facts.

https://medium.com/@kevinsteele_69114/trx-seeing-through-the-fud-fomo-to-the-facts-b912dec545f9

.....But at what reasoning would someone so publicly doubt and accuse TRX of being an exaggerated pump and dump of epic proportions? Many reasons come to mind, however the most major factor in my mind is the fear of missing out, or rather, fear of already having missed out. With the current state of the cryptocurrency market it can be very time demanding (as well as expensive) to keep up to date on each and every new project, while also investing within them as you see fit. Many people begin to feel left out of the train of success of a specific token or investment, and turn to negativity to justify their own non-investment, or to further cause a dip in price to allow for a more achievable price point entry.

Reddit, while sometimes a good source of general information on project updates, can be at times extremely biased towards a few main projects, be it whatever is currently popular within those subreddits. While you will find each subreddit is moderated with differing methods and demeanor, censorship does in fact happen at a political, financial and emotional level across many boards.

Secondly, many Whales, or rather investors holding significant amounts of currency (enough to sway exchange markets) are aware of an increase in Fear, Uncertainty & Doubt, and manipulate this to their advantage. Many times this is referred to as a Shakeout. An investor may want to accumulate a large portion of currency in a token that has previously trended strongly. They accomplish this by placing buy orders in the pool to chase the token up significantly higher. The biggest factor utilized is buying into weakness. New token investors may lack the traditional financial market skills to track a tokens past and present status. A Whale can then start a trend, and monopolize off of it to further increase their holdings.
   
While a shakeout can occur to simply exit the market, many times it is monopolized upon to transfer the token holdings of weak hands, to the stronger, larger investors for a larger return.

So what does this mean for TRX?

In my opinion, TRX is still a very worthwhile project with an ambitious, but achievable, roadmap. Justin Sun has brought together, and continues to add to, a massively talented team with experience in many fields necessary to construct a successful, long term project such as this.
For anyone that asks where to further research, I always advise,
Much like your portfolio, diversify your research methods and sources. Come back with a general consensus, and never negate your own gut instinct.....

Thanks for posting this one! Nice insights in times of FUD!

Yeah thanks for that piece.

Really sums up my feelings and what I think is true about all that FUD(ders).

We #TRON are proud to announce the partnership with Baofeng group. Baofeng, aka Chinese @netflix, boasts more than 200 million users as a video portal giant and has achieved 8 billion CNY listing in Shenzhen stock exchange (300431.SZ).


Baofeng and TRON — Opening a New Era of Blockchain-Based Online Entertainment

https://medium.com/@Tronfoundation/baofeng-and-tron-opening-a-new-era-of-blockchain-based-online-entertainment-63fd6c97ca4d

Recently, bfc.baofeng.com has reached a blockchain technology cooperation agreement with TRON, with the signing of Blockchain Consensus Network (BCN). Bfc.baofeng.com and TRON will cooperate in the deployment of full nodes in the blockchain network, the integration of blockchain with online entertainment industry, the building of open source community of blockchain and so on, opening a new era of blockchain-based online entertainment.

Since its inception in January 2007, Baofeng has been committed to providing Internet users with the easiest and most convenient Internet audio and video playing solutions, with its world’s leading video decoder and audio decoder technologies. Currently, Baofeng.com boasts more than 200 million users as a veritable video portal giant. Baofeng Group Co., Ltd. [300431] has achieved the aggregate market value of over 8 billion CNY since its listing in March 2015. As a pioneer of Baofeng Group to enter the blockchain field, bfc.baofeng.com gained extremely high attention upon its launch, with more than 500,000 reservations. The BCN service is a global first and can help the blockchain business quickly deploy massive nodes.

In the future, Baofeng BFC hardware devices will support TRON and run the full nodes of the TRON’s main chain. This will undoubtedly provide a sound infrastructure for the TRON main chain’s launch and operation and lay a solid foundation for blockchain-based online entertainment’s development.

CEO of bfc.baofeng.com, former COO of Baofeng Group — Tianlong Cui
Bfc.Baofeng.com’s CEO Tianlong Cui said: “After communicating with the TRON team, we find that TRON already enjoys a huge global community and market and that TRON is essentially a complex network composed of an integrated blockchain settlement system and a P2P data engine system that offers smart contracts large file services and that allows intelligent cache and deployment. As a large-scale P2P network operator, we know how difficult this network is and how great the technical challenges are. We look forward to the TRON team overcoming the difficulties and launching the network.”

TRON’s founder Justin Sun said: “Baofeng Group is one of the best Internet companies and a prominent public company in China. This cooperation reflects Baofeng’s clear understanding of the Internet’s future and its high recognition of TRON project and team. For TRON, 2018 will be a year of rapid growth. Launching the main chain will be the top priority. Baofeng’s BCN service will pave the way for TRON’s sustained development. We both look forward to opening a new era of blockchain-based online entertainment.

According to coinmarketcap.com, Tron is among the top 10 crypto currencies by market cap, with a total market cap over 10 billion USD.

Very good news, if it's true of course. I still hold TRX in my portfolio, despite the losses. I hope this doesn't disappoint me.

What advantages does TRON have against ETH, ADA, NEO, EOS in theory?
Where is implementation/wallet?

I’m not invested in it but it looks like a solid project. Should be a good long term hold.

Tron was said to be a scam, their white paper was plagiarism, etcetera etcetera. But it's hard to believe that someone who already has a name in this technology would do something like this. And someone like Jack Ma would not back a fraud. It looks like Tron has a great market and will be successful in the near future.

Personally I think TRX is a great project dont let fudders scare you away. It is a solid project backed by big companies and chinese government might embrace TRX too that would be big :o ;D

I have invested on it but I am not sure if it is a good choice.
Always there are new announcements but the price is keeping going down.
Perhaps it is a scam project..

people love and hate tron.. i think it might climb based on silly things like connections to the big industries in China (Jack Ma, etc)...

 :)hi as my opinion is it's a good project and I personally invested on that,   but its all up to you to take your own decision, do some research and go through the news and stuff. as I feel that it's a strong project which I can invest with the minimum risk.that's why I invested on that. good luck!! :) :)

I think TRON just was bumped, look at the market now. Price just falling down with each day, it's not corrections imho.

I have invested a small amount of my capital on TRON because I think the project is good...price is going down deeply but I hope it will rise in 1-2 months...... I don't think it's a scam project...

It's hard to believe they didn't have a github repository until Dec 1, months after ICO, but there you are.  The white paper has been pulled from their site now, but the evidence is out there, the plagiarism is explained away as being due to translators.   ::)

TRON have conceived a great idea and now they are simply doomed to success. I think they will succeed.

TRON — (TRX) Coin! Actual potential or just another “shill” coin?

https://medium.com/@TwentySumCrypto/tron-trx-coin-killing-fud-rumors-a-presentation-of-counterpoints-1ae14629821d

Now it`s a little bit risk to buy Tron , because it can go down after such big pump , and , as I know , bad news was coming for it.

Its not even an original idea, theres a number of other projects - some with code in the field - that offer similar.  There may be an idea at its heart to be different from those others, but theres now a massive weight of expectation.  Should have built a product and team first, not sold a dream.

Don't purchase any coins, the project is just there so people can dump money on the ones who purchase Tron.

well, they have a great idea, great team. I will continue to HODL and make profits after 2-3 months once the big announcements are made.

The big pump passed and many people stayed with coins, which were bought very expensively. Probably the majority even managed to fix the losses and sell coins cheaply. And what does it show? It indicates that soon there will be another pump)))

What would be that expert source that can predict cryptocurrencies value? I am intrigued. I hold some TRX but I don´t put both feet into this river.

i believe that TRX will bet back to its ATH price in a month or two, it need more time and more new buyers, which cant come to the market because of the account creation issues

Maybe he will grow up in a few months, but now I think he will only fall because the pump was very strong

Hi,

Looks fine, lets wait for breakout.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Tronix/comments/7pgbvc/i_was_asked_my_opinion_about_baofeng_news_and_you/

In America, the internet is available. You can google things, you can find opinions of people you dont agree with. In China, you can't. You've got to VPN, and those get smoked constantly.. and put you at risk.
Little Justin has a solution. I underestimated him. This is a global play by Jack Ma and Justin Sun to decentralize content in China.
Think about it.. the BFC is a NAS.. so what.. oh wait, what if.. we put VIDEO into the blockchain. Then.. you put the blockchain validator on the NAS.. where does the video live?? Yep.. its now a little CDN node. So you can watch the content by paying tron tokens to view blockchain content, but you can also SERVE that blockchain content to OTHER people.
So.. China hasn't figured this out. But I have. Justin and Jack just changed censorship in China, and there will be no way PRC can stop them. Before, you pull off content by ordering the provider to turn off their network access.. Now, you have 511,000 individual nodes.. try to take THAT offline.
Clever Chinese man.. they always find a way. That's why China is keeping it down, they are loading up before this is understood. They really did do something, and you guys are worried about ICO whitepapers.. lol.. get on a plane and investigate the WORLD if you want to make sense of any of this.
Respect little jbizzle........

...its good to read all the coments of Sockeyebtc

Thumb Up this... nice. i also dont understand the concept before this.

You can some videos on youtube about Tron. There are a lot of good reviews for this coin. With good factors like a 10-year road map and a founder who has numerous successful projects in the past. So this actually validates the hype Tron’s been gaining.

Moreover, it is actually just Ethereum token, not the crypto.  ???

TRON = SHITCOIN

Initially I had lot of hopes on it but it's loosing

oBike launches cryptocurrency oCoin that generates value as you ride

https://cyclingindustry.news/obike-launches-cryptocurrency-ocoin-that-generates-value-as-you-ride/


A new cryptocurrency introduced by oBike in partnership with TRON will today go live.

Dubbed oCoin, the latest cyrptocurrency goes on token sale to institutional investors, with four billion oCoins for sale. This was announced today by Odyssey, the oCoin not-for-profit foundation.

Odyssey leverages on blockchain technology. It aims to establish oCoin, its official token and the basic unit of accounts in Odyssey’s blockchain, as an acceptable mode of payment globally without the need for central bodies or third parties. Foundation members include key founding and executive members from global leading transportation sharing companies.

oCoin, which is based on the Ethereum protocol, currently accepts only ETH, Ethereum’s cryptocurrency token. Hence, all participants’ wallets must be ETH ERC20 compatible to purchase oCoins. It has plans to support TRX, TRON’s cryptocurrency token in the near future.

oBike, one of the world’s largest bike share operators, has become the first application of the sharing economy to be compatible with the Odyssey protocol. As part of its strategic partnership, Odyssey will work closely with TRON on cross-ecosystem collaborations which will benefit Odyssey’s sub-ecosystem like oBike.

Investors of oCoins can also use them to purchase online content, or on any applications that are on TRON’s platform. oBike users will be able to use oCoins to pay for their rides as well as top up their oBike wallets using oCoins. oBike users can also look forward to generating oCoins whenever they ride, with the ability to earn more oCoins the longer they ride.

Also announced today, oBike’s mobile app in Asia now offers a delivery service called oBike Flash. Those who sign up to be ‘Flashmen’ can earn oCoins by handling deliveries.

Institutional investors who are keen to participate in this token sale, can contact https://t.me/OdysseyOfficial via Telegram.

More information can be found on the official Facebook page.

Yes, there are a lot of upcoming events. Especially the coin burn I think TRX will hit around 5k sats.

I think it's a very promising currency and I would invest in it.
But I'm not sure how the scandal with Filecoin and IPFS will affect on the coin.

Interesting. How many people invested in this coin? Recently, this coin is not growing, but the fall was not significant. Does it make sense to buy it or is it too late?

TRON.. real Man! ))

Just decided .. and he first went upstairs.
+ 50% one of the leaders of the rise. A very strong coin!

Hi thank you so much for sharing this article. I will buy more tron when it gets dip and gonna hold for a year or 2. Have a great day.

Too many new main stream people are in this already, don't see any growth worth wild to get in this.

This is the dip. Or was.

My favourite project.

TRON will be fly to like a rocket. They signed a contract with the Chinese analogue Netflix which has a very huge base of subscribers, it is very good job on their part. And now i are waiting for growth :)

I really like it because it reminds me of the movie butttt other than thatttt...... Not so much unfortunately hahaha

number of tron supplies is biggest problem.
however, tron is really making deals almost every week and it is really used token.
justin sun is hardworking on it and he is investing on his team as well.

yet, being used as technology by companies is different than being a valuable coin. market supply should be less. waiting burns..

The protocol allows each user to freely publish, store and own data, and in the decentralized autonomous form, decides the distribution, subscription and push of contents and enables content creators by releasing, circulating and dealing with digital assets, thus forming a decentralized content entertainment ecosystem.

Tron was founded by Justin Sun, the former chief representative for Greater China of Ripple. Justin was featured in 2015&2017 Forbes China 30 under 30, 2017 Forbes Asia 30 under 30 and was a member of the first batch of entrepreneurs at Hupan University, an elite business school established by Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba Group.
According to Coinmarketcap by January 5, 2018, Tron is the 6th among the top 10 crypto currencies, with a total market cap over 15.3 billion USD, daily trading volume of 4.6 billion USD, there are at least 350,000 TRX holders around the world.

I remember that about qtum project's history when so many people are saying that as a big scam caused by it's running by patrick dai that already accused by so many people caused by he was scamming bitshares.
But the fact that qtum grows a lot in this time or is this the same as tron project? I was feeling curious about where will we go.

maybe something to look up to for TRON holders.

Does anyone here have a skeptical opinion on TRON?

i bought some, and they just launch tron dogs
Dubious about this coin

https://twitter.com/TronCommunity/status/954683167952207872

SORRY! but i don't think so! tron is just full of hype and people are getting crazy every time JUSTIN make an announcement, as of now all i can see TRON in the market is just PUMP and DUMP! sorry! but this is my observations!

Read WhitePaper there is a pretty strong technology and idea, the pump at the end of the year was associated with a specific action and a rally of the car among traders. Therefore, a strong fall after hyper growth is normal

I honestly don't know why there are so many people watching Tron.
Almost all Chinese friends know that they are a fraud team, and the software created by the founder is only used for pornographic services, which is not allowed in China.

https://twitter.com/gelert/status/953540076163678209

TRON is quite an interesting project, which has recently been pumped up very seriously, but after some decline in the market, TRON has started to fall rapidly, I can not say more precise information because I did not buy TRON coins. Therefore, there is simply no more accurate information.

tron is unbelievable project i think enlarge at the small time  and this syringe a nice project to invest

We need to wait to see what will happen to tron in the future because now it's hard to find a logical and unbiased comment about it. Some people keep talking shit about it without any proper evidence and some people act like tron is the next big thing. Instead of getting caught in the middle of that argument you can try to take advantage of it. It is very wavy so it is possible to make money by doing buy and sells in a daily basis.

Tron.Live had an interview session with Game.com CEO — Xu Le. We talked a lot about blockchain and how the future of blockchain gaming will be.

https://medium.com/@TronDotLive/tron-live-had-an-interview-session-with-game-com-9e09e0b36e17


TronLive: Hello Xu Le, although we already know each other, can you give us a brief introduction of yourself, so that our readers can have a better understanding of you?

My name is Xu Le, an entrepreneur from China. I started entrepreneur activities since I joined Tsinghua University in year 2000. I paused my studies in ’02 so I can stay focus on my entrepreneur journey. So, this is my 18th years in entrepreneurship, with 10 years in Internet business and 8 years in gaming industry. One of my most memorable event is during 2012–2014 which I led my development team and move towards the global mobile gaming field. We made it to the Top 5 in casino gaming field worldwide. We are known as “TOPGAME” that time and I believed a lot of Australia, US, UK and Canada mobile gamers have played the game we made before, it’s called Titan Slots.
In fact, during these years, I have also invested in around 30–40 companies. An example is a company called verlocal.com which is based in San Francisco, US that empower local experts to offer activities, classes, events, services, workshops, and handmade products on a single platform.
We also made friends with a lot of partners along the way, this also includes our good friends’ companies and companies in the gaming field that we came across during those years. This eventually resulted in long mutually beneficial business relationship. So, the business we are practising is on a global level, not focused or limited to any specific countries at all.

TronLive: Your company and the projects you invested in sounds interesting! I’m sure a lot of people would like to get to know about you and learn what you have in store for us.

Since the beginning of this year, TronLive has been collecting unanswered questions and doubts from users on numerous online communities, forums and chat rooms. The user base includes TronLive supporters, tweeters, discord players, Tron and Game.com supporters as well as one of the fastest growing cryptocurrency community — Tronix subreddit, which has over 53,000 members and growing. TronLive has also collaborated with Tronix subreddit mods and compiled some questions that may be extremely useful for the community members. We hope you can clear these questions for us, so more people will get to know Tron and Game.com better. Do you want to have a word with your supporters before we move on?
First of all, I am really thankful, grateful, and appreciate all of this, and I am really happy that we all get along well in this new era. A futuristic era of cryptocurrencies and we are all early explorers of this new world. There are many talented individuals in this field who are brave to march, strive and work to achieve all of these. We can look back at our first generation cryptocurrency like bitcoin, or later generations of cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, EOS or Tron. These are all great in itself. However, I think that this new world still lacks content and entertainment. This is the reason why we bring in game.com so that we can provide gaming and entertainment services to everyone, and add vitality to this field. More interesting content and activities will be introduced in the blockchain field....

TRON’s First Beta Version — Exodus Will Be Launched on March 31



Today, TRON officially announced the latest progress of the project development, showing that the main network functions were all set and it will be launched on March 31. This should be the second important upgrade after the open source on December 29, 2017.

We also learned from Chen Zhiqiang, the leader of TRON’s technical department that during the R&D of main net, it integrated the advantages of multiple blockchain systems and proposed and realized the following core functions:
1. With UTXO-based trading models, history transactions can be transparently tracked through the public ledger. UTXO boots concurrent processing capability and enhances network performance. Create the concept of transaction account that is in consistent with real-world application through abstraction based on UTXO technology.
2. Achieve over 1 thousand transactions per second with PoS-based TBFT consensus mechanism which adjusts the account takers of a transaction according to the speed and delay of the block.
3. Support ultra-low fee transfer (10e-6 TRX per transfer).
4. Provide a secure execution environment for smart contract byte-code with TRON virtual machine (TVM). TVM has following advantages: lightweight, fast loading, resource isolation, high scalability etc.
5. Support smart contracts written in programming languages such as Java. Compile them into TVM byte-code with TRON compiler for high execution performance.
6. Provide common ABCI (Application BlockChain Interface) with consensus engine and Blockchain state machine loosely-coupled architecture.
7. Provide distributed network management and monitoring utilities. Visualize TRON operations and performance to easily track the status and potential risks.

The founder of TRON, Justin Sun noted that, “First, I would like to express my gratitude to all of you, for your attention and support to TRON and for your trust in our team; and to our developers as well, for their strenuous development work. With unremitting efforts of TRON’s technical team, the test for TRX main network is about to start. The launch of main net this time will be a vital node in TRON’s development history. But this won’t be an end. TRON is a blockchain operating system we built to bring the original intention of Internet and to realize decentralization. We believe in the three major values, which are also the foundation for Internet 4.0: trustworthy decentralized applications, block chain enabled smart contracts and digital values that everyone can access and distribute.
Centering on TRON, people will obtain a global-scale free-content entertainment system, from which the entire decentralized Internet ecosystem will be stretched out. We will continue to upgrade and optimize our main network from security, scalability, privacy, user experience and other aspects and finally provide better services to our partners and developers. We welcome TRON’s believers and supporters worldwide to join us and witness our future together.”

Do you have concrete evidence or is it just words?
Why did you decide that the TRON is a bad project that is made by scammers?

An Inside Look at TRON (TRX) Founder Justin Sun

https://theindependentrepublic.com/2018/01/26/tron-trx-founder-justin-sun/#mobile-site-navigation

TRON (TRX)–Adapted from his recent interview with Tron.Live, here are a few insights from Xu Le (CEO of Game.com, a major partner of TRX) into the tireless, and at times controversial founder of Tron, Justin Sun.

Overcoming TRON Skeptics

Le admits that when he first looked into Tron, predating the partnership with Game.com, he was skeptical of both the project and its outspoken founder, “When Justin introduced Tron in China, I’ve actually seen his whitepaper. That time, I’m quite ignorant and thinking that isn’t this just imagining things out of thin air? I couldn’t see how these pieces will come together.” Le’s initial impression of Tron is in line with the criticism many have towards Justin Sun and the TRX white paper: an outspoken founder who has made bold claims that seem too large to fill. The white paper, in particular, has drawn controversy in its English translation with claims of plagiarism.

It’s worth remembering that Tron is in its nascent form, having only come online since August 2017. The white paper could be a rushed effort, it could be a limitation of proper translation to Western business, or it could be the source of evolution. Tron and Justin Sun have made big claims. But so has every cryptocurrency. The goal of Bitcoin is to create a currency as ubiquitous as government fiat that it could be a replacement. There are many advantages to Bitcoin: decentralization, security, deflation, etc. that have drawn excitement to the tune of a 200 billion USD market capitalization. But if you asked any politician or Wall Street banker if Bitcoin can replace US dollars (insert your country of choice here), you would get a resounding no.

That doesn’t make Bitcoin any less compelling.

If anything, the loftier the goal and expectation, the greater the excitement created. Justin Sun has a similar sentiment with Tron. For every naysayer and reputation-smearer TRX has, there is another investor motivated to support the project. So while the current manifestation of Tron may be out of proportion with realized expectations, that could all change within the next six months. Xu Le is willing to give Justin Sun the benefit of the doubt, content with the idea that he doesn’t have to understand the broader picture of Tron or have a definitive road map. Instead, he is interested in investing in a partner he finds to be highly motivated and potentially visionary: i.e. Justin Sun.

Impressed by Justin Sun’s Determination

When asked about his initial impression of Justin Sun, Le gave this response, “After [the China Ban], an ordinary person just won’t know the pressure that Justin has gone through. Despite this, Justin was able to revitalize Tron in a global market and in such a large scale, getting Tronix listed on so many exchanges, doing a lot of PR, and so on. So, no matter how Tron will perform in the future, what we are seeing today is how determined a person can be and how one is able to cope with such a tremendous pressure and do it well.”

Tron presents a bit of an anomaly in the world of cryptocurrency. Many investors and enthusiasts are spurred by the idea of decentralization–the lack of any singular or collective controlling authority. Many people think the technology should speak for itself. This camp finds Tron an enterprising project, but one muddled by the peddling of its founder. However, this concept of crypto-backers wanting a lack of authority is unfounded in the history of cryptocurrency. Bitcoin benefited tremendously from the input and direction of Satoshi Nakamoto, so much that he has developed cult status in both the cryptosphere and general public in solving the mystery of his identity. People treat Satoshi’s vision for Bitcoin with the same dogma and reverence they would the U.S. constitution, which has led to a heated debate and division over hard forks. Bitcoin Cash is held entirely in the vice grip of a handful of players, the most vocal of which is Roger Ver. Ver has become the primary arbiter for the promotion and continuance of Bitcoin Cash, an occurrence few BCH holders seem to mind–even going so far as to promote Ver’s heavy-handed antics. Litecoin has also suffered the withdrawal of Charlie Lee’s dramatic exit from Litecoin, leaving many LTC fans reeling in the aftermath.

Cryptocurrency does not have to be beholden to a central player, but it’s hard to deny the market craves a figurehead for news, direction and assurance for the coins they are investing in. Many projects in the space have suffered, at least in terms of monetary capitalization, from the lack of a consistent place to feel “the pulse” of what’s going on with the currency. Even the top 100 of market capitalization is littered with coins that may or may not be dead in the water–it’s hard to tell without an authority figure to gauge upon.

Think of cryptocurrency investing like angel investing: each coin presents an interesting, potentially novel technology that is attempting to solve a problem. You should research the tech, the problem, and the potential wealth that could be generated, but you should also be looking at the team. Justin Sun has the credentials. He has proven to be a determined and tireless advocate for his currency. He has built an impressive number of partnerships for a company that has only been in operation for less than six months. You can bet, even with the price of TRX plummeting, that this will not be the end of Justin Sun’s commitment to growing his product. If there is any reason to be bullish on the price of TRX it’s this: Sun will almost certainly find a way to bring the price of TRX back to its previous ATH, which constitutes a gain of over 300%.

Ability to Grow TRONIX

At one point in the interview, Le is asked candidly his opinion of Justin Sun. His response tells volumes on the future of Tron and the value of Tron partnerships, “When a person is able scale something from scratch to a global large scale, we can gauge one’s ability form this. Tron went from a market cap of $2 billion to an all time high of $16 billion market cap after partnering with us…What we should focus on is this young man’s determination, endurance, and execution of tasks under pressure.” Le comments upon the plunging market capitalization and price of TRX but also contends the point with the overall dip in the crypto marketplace. Instead, as he says, it’s more important to look past the fluctuations in TRX valuation and instead focus on what Justin Sun was able to accomplish: scaling a company from the ground floor to 10 billion+ in five months. Now we realize: it’s crypto. Billion dollar valuations are a dime a dozen, and market capitalization has less meaning when compared to the traditional stock market. But, the sudden rise of Tron proves two things: Justin Sun can drum up enough excitement to draw significant media attention and investor dollars, and there is now a nucleus of followers with a significant stake in seeing Tron flourish. Both bode well for Tron’s long-term price and ability to bounce back from the recent drop.

TRON in 2018

Here’s what you should do if you are a current investor of TRX or waiting on the sideline to buy in at the low price: read Xu Le’s take on Justin Sun and that of other CEOs Tron is partnering with. Ignore the negative press and FUD campaign and instead focus on the broader picture Sun has for Tron and what TRX’s valuation could be a month, a year, three years from now. Cryptocurrency has created a horde of myopic traders and enthusiasts. It’s like watching people stuck in traffic. They jump from one lane to the next, hoping to speed ahead. Practice patience. Start studying the market, the technology and what the team behind each company brings. TRX is under a hellstorm of bad publicity, most of which is through no fault of Sun or the Tron project. TRX created an overwhelming amount of jealousy in its meteoric rise to the top ten of market capitalization. It then created an equal amount of animosity in investors spurned by the sudden drop. But the vitriol is largely undeserved. Sun, in his short stint in the spotlight, has proven to be a special founder, not all that dissimilar from a Steve Jobs. He aims big with his project, but he also expects big to occur. So while you can ridicule Tron for its most recent drop in price, you can’t rule out that Justin Sun is exactly the type of founder to steer his project back into the green and to new highs.

Strategic Partnership between TRON and GSC Makes One Hundred Million Users Get Access to TRON Network

https://medium.com/@Tronfoundation/strategic-partnership-between-tron-and-gsc-makes-one-hundred-million-users-get-access-to-tron-a6c58e6a6c9e

Today, TRON announced that it has built a strategic partnership with GSC (Global Social Chain). In the future, TRON will provide GSC with great support in aspects of fund, technology and infrastructure, and GSC will carry out optimization based on TRON Network, in order to jointly facilitate development of blockchain-based social system.
GSC (Global Social Chain) is the world’s first new generation of social network chain that owns hundreds of millions of social users. This social chain is determined to use block chain technology to subvert centralized social networks such as Facebook, WeChat, etc., which plays a dual role as “manager” and “arbiter” simultaneously for the former social networking platforms.
GSC Foundation has a long-term relationship with Mico as the most important Strategic Partner. Mico is a mobile social platform for the global market, which was launched in February 2015. With its original “intelligent social recommendation system based on interest”, Mico has created its own territory in the giant global social market, quickly accumulating hundreds of millions of users and entered the top five social tables in more than 60 countries, becoming the world’s premier open social platform. A social matrix is built around the social platform on Mico, including Mico, Kitty Live, Waka, and YAY.
Mico is the largest social platform among strangers in Southeast Asia and Middle East and owns more than one hundred million registered users. It was once rated as the best App by Google. Kitty Live is one of the most popular streaming Apps in Southeast Asia and owns 20 million registered users. The cooperation between TRON and GSC means that at least 120 million users of social and streaming platforms will get access to TRON Network. This will significantly expand the blockchain-based online entertainment business.

“As a trailblazer that integrates blockchain and social & online entertainment, TRON has made remarkable achievements. Our partnership with TRON is the natural result of our shared goal of optimizing social experience with blockchain. In the future, we want to make more beneficial attempts based on TRON’s main chain, in order to bring young people around the world the best social experience,” said Sean Su, chairman of GSC Foundation.
“Currently, GSC and its partner Mico have owned more than one hundred million global users. In particular, they are very popular in Southeast Asia. Their favorable user base will become the key factor for GSC to outperform its competitors. In the future, TRON will support Mico in aspects of fund, technology and infrastructure, in order to continuously optimize social experience through blockchain,” said Justin Sun, founder of TRON.

Very interesting news about this project. But if this is true, why did the price not react to this? During the week the price fluctuates between 600 and 630 satoshis. I'm still waiting for its growth.

Yup you are right so many people crazy in tron but this is another pumo and dump or full of hype but the best thing that I want for tron is the price are too small and so many exchange site are listed in this project recently trox are listed in bitfines.

So, did TRON remake its whitepaper (that was plagiarized) and its code (that was copy and pasted from ethereum's)? I wouldnt trust a group of devs that claims to be "one of the best in the world" that does shady stuff like this.

Tron has had some negative press and in my opinion are rushing things quite a bit. Justin Sun is a fantastic marketer for his product which I think has great applications. Right now it's more hype than it is real implementation, but once it starts to toll out actual partnerships this will go big. It's a top 20 coin for a reason. It's almost impossible that it wont rise in price being so highly traded in the market cap.
