Title: Some fundamental questions about the Blockchain technology.
Post by: hack3rcon on May 13, 2021, 07:31:07 PM
Hello,
I have some questions:

1- A cryptocurrency like TRON or EOS is like an operating system that lets developers to make their programs on it? For example, TRON is like the Windows or GNU/Linux OS and developers can make their applications on it.
Am I right?


2- Why are some of these networks sometimes busy? Is it because many programs were running on them at the time?

3- When a cryptocurrency network like the Ethereum become busy, then people switching to the other networks like TRON. Does that mean that applications that running on the Ethereum network changed their network to the TRON network?

4- How a developer can use Ethereum or TRON network to making an application?



Thank you.

Thank you.

1. Yes, its somewhat similar to the operating system where all the other applications can be run. You need to know what is the coin and token and how they are running to get better idea.

2. Network is busy for two reasons, one is due to the drop in the hash rate of the miners or the network is congested with lot more transactions than usual so the network will be busy and you may have to wait more longer.

3. People can switch their project to another blockchain, if they want and its already happening with Ethereum price hike and Binance smart chain launch.

4. You need to have technical knowledge and idea to create a project and also the real usecase.

Thank you.
Can you give me a brief information about the coin and token and how they are running?

In simple words, token is something which is using other blockchains for their use so they don't have any native blockchain while coin is a project with their own blockchain.

What is the difference between Coins and Tokens?

Thank you.
With which programming language, a developer could write an application on the TRON or Ethereum network?

Thank you.

The founder of Ethereum Vitalik Buterin along with his colleagues developed a new programming language called Solidity from scratch. It is designed to best serve the requirements for smart contracts. There is tons of material on the internet to learn about it. This guide can give you a little overview, but there way more detailed sources out there.

Thank you.
Is there a better technology than Blockchain? Is that Crosschain?
