Frequently Asked Questions

Bitvavo makes Tron as easy as possible. Here are answers to common questions to help you make your first steps in the world of digital assets.

Tron is a blockchain founded in 2017 with the goal of changing the way digital content is shared, consumed, and distributed. The problem Tron addresses is the centralization in the current digital content industry. It offers a decentralized solution that takes power away from large, dominant corporations and gives it back to content creators and users. This results in a fairer distribution of revenue and more control for creators over their own work.

Tron uses blockchain technology to create an open, transparent and accessible environment for sharing content and conducting transactions directly between parties.

The project stands out thanks to its wide range of features and products, including decentralized applications (dApps), smart contracts, and the TRX token. Together, these elements form an ecosystem where developers can build and deploy innovative applications. TRX serves as the primary currency within the Tron network, allowing users to pay for access to various services and applications. In addition, users have voting rights by staking TRX within Tron’s governance model.

Who founded Tron?

Justin Sun is the founder of Tron and is known for his forward-thinking vision on blockchain technology and digital media. Before founding Tron, Sun was involved in other blockchain projects and founded the Peiwo app, which strengthened his experience and network within the industry. Tron is managed by the Tron Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to the development of the network. The team consists of experts from a range of backgrounds.

Tron is focused on sharing, consuming, and distributing digital content. The project offers several capabilities:

  • Sharing content: Content creators can offer their work directly without intermediaries, allowing them to be compensated more fairly and have more control over their work.
  • Developing and using dApps: Tron provides a platform for developing decentralized applications ranging from games to DeFi services. This gives developers the space to innovate without the constraints of centralization.
  • Participating in governance: TRX holders can vote on proposals and changes within the Tron ecosystem, actively contributing to the direction and development of the network.
  • Performing financial transactions: TRX acts as a fast and efficient currency for transactions within the Tron network, including payments for services and money transfers between users.

Tron's technical operation is based on a layered architecture, consisting of the core layer, the application layer and the storage layer. Each layer plays a crucial role in the functioning and efficiency of the network.

Core layer

The core layer is the foundation of Tron and is responsible for essential tasks. It uses the Tron Virtual Machine (TVM), which is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). This makes it easy for developers to migrate or build dApps on Tron. In addition, programming languages such as Solidity can be used to write complex smart contracts, allowing for the creation of powerful dApps.

Application layer

The application layer is where developers can build dApps. This layer provides all the necessary tools and interfaces to interact with the Tron network, allowing developers to focus on providing an optimal user experience. Various dApps are available on Tron, ranging from games and social networks to DeFi platforms and more.

Storage layer

Tron’s storage layer is designed to efficiently handle the massive amount of data generated by the network and its applications. Blockchain data (history) is separated from state data (current state of smart contracts), allowing for faster access and processing of data. This contributes to the performance and scalability of the network.

Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS)

Tron uses a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism, which is more efficient and energy-efficient than traditional Proof-of-Work (PoW). With DPoS, TRX holders elect a group of 27 Super Representatives (SRs) who validate transactions and add blocks to the blockchain. These SRs are elected every six hours, which ensures dynamic and democratic network governance. The DPoS mechanism not only ensures high transaction speed, but also the security of the network.

TRX holders receive Tron Power from staking. With Tron Power, they can vote for Super Representatives and participate in network decision-making. The staking process not only contributes to the security of the network, but also gives users the chance to earn rewards for their involvement in the network.

TRX is the primary cryptocurrency within the Tron network. It has various functions, such as payments for transactions, access to dApps, and voting rights within Tron’s governance model. There are a maximum of 100 billion tokens available. Additionally, TRX tokens are used to reward users who contribute to the network, such as dApp developers or users who stake their tokens to secure the network and validate transactions.

The process of securing TRX, also known as staking, involves token holders locking up their TRX in exchange for rewards and the ability to participate in the governance process of the network. In order to stake TRX, users are required to transfer their TRX tokens to a special staking wallet. By doing so, they receive Tron Power, which serves as a proxy for voting rights within the network.

The amount of TRX tokens a user stakes for staking determines the level of influence they have on decisions within the ecosystem. Staking TRX not only helps secure the network and validate transactions, but also provides users with the opportunity to earn passive income. As a reward for their contribution, users receive new TRX tokens from the Tron staking process.

Tron stands out from other blockchains due to several unique features:

  • Specialization in content distribution: With a strong focus on the entertainment industry and digital content creation, Tron is an ideal choice for content creators who need a platform optimized for their specific needs.
  • High scalability and low costs: By using the Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism, Tron can process a large number of transactions per second while keeping transaction fees low.
  • Strong emphasis on user adoption: Tron aims to make participation in the decentralized web accessible by providing user-friendly wallets, interfaces, and a seamless user experience.
  • A dedicated community: The platform offers extensive support to developers, which has led to an active and engaged community.
