"TRON"

**TRON** is a Blockchain-based decentralized operating system based on a cryptocurrency native to the system, known as TRX. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockchain https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptocurrency Architecture The TRON protocol, maintained primarily by the TRON Foundation, distributes computing resources equally among TRX holders with internal pricing mechanisms such as bandwidth and energy.[19] TRON provides a decentralized virtual machine, which can execute a program using an international network of public nodes. The network has zero transaction fees and conducts ~2000 transactions per second. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRON_(cryptocurrency)#cite_note-19 TRON defines a proof of stake architecture.[*citation needed*] The implementations of TRON foster minimal transaction fees to prevent malicious users to perform DDoS attacks for free. In this respect, EOS.IO and TRON are quite similar, due to the nonexistent fee, high transactions per second and high reliability, and regarded as new generation of blockchain system.[20] Some researchers defined TRON as an Ethereum clone, with no fundamental differences.[21] The transactions per second rate on Tron's blockchain was questioned because it was far below its theoretical claim.[22] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_stake https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/EOS.IO https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRON_(cryptocurrency)#cite_note-20 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRON_(cryptocurrency)#cite_note-21 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRON_(cryptocurrency)#cite_note-22 Governance The TRON community votes for 27 Super Representatives, who then generate and validate blocks within a 3 second block time, through a decentralized autonomous organization. Super Representatives are re-elected every 6 hours. The 27 Super Representatives also govern the network by proposing and voting for TIP (TRON Improvement Proposal) in the TRON committee.
