TRON (TRX) is a decentralized blockchain-based platform created to develop the digital entertainment industry. Launched by Justin Sun in 2017, TRON strives to decentralize the internet and empower content creators to interact directly with consumers, bypassing middlemen. The platform supports the creation and execution of smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps). TRON uses the Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus model, which ensures high transaction speed and scalability. The TRX token is used to pay for transactions and interact with applications on the platform.
