TRON (TRX) is a blockchain platform founded by crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun in 2014. It is focused on changing the landscape of the media and content creation industry. TRON helps media and content creators retain ownership of their work while being rewarded directly by consumers. With TRON, creators do not need to sell their work rights to big corporations to reach a large audience. The TRON blockchain does not charge any fees for the use of the network. The network still supports as many as 2000 transactions per second despite the lack of gas fees. The blockchain is maintained through a consensus mechanism called Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS). In TRON's case, 27 Super Representatives are nominated to validate transactions and secure the blockchain. To reduce the possibility of such a small number of people conspiring to take down the blockchain, the Super Representatives are changed every six hours. The TRX token is the native token of the TRON blockchain and is used to reward media and content creators.
