Tron [TRX], the ninth largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, took center stage due to recent announcements and developments concerning the ecosystem. The main announcement of the foundation for this year is the launch of the BitTorrent token [BTT] white paper and the launch of the crowdfund on the Binance Launchpad.
The news related to BitTorrent has led to a massive push in the price of Tron, as Sun said that the entire TRX community will get the BTT token via airdrop, adding that both communities have a strong bond. Released this, the exchanges announced that they would support the airdrop, with the latest in Bitbns, a leading cryptocurrency exchange platform in India.
Furthermore, Tron has made progress in terms of the number of developer applications on the network. The number of dApps on the network has now exceeded 100-mark. Justin Sun, CEO and founder of the Tron Foundation, said the network would soon break through the 200 points, with the support of the upcoming summit niTron and Tron Accelerator.
Justin Sun stated on his official Twitter account:
"#TRON has 100+ dapps on @DappRadar and 133 dapps on @dapp_review now! 2-3 dapps launched every day.With # niTROn2019 and #TRON accelerator, we will interrupt 200 very soon! #TRX $ TRX"
In December 2018, Tron Foundation launched the Tron Accelerator, an online contest with a $ 1 million prize pool. The program winner will receive $ 200,000 and the runner-up will receive $ 100,000. The purpose of the program is to encourage the development of portfolios and browser blockchains on the Tron network. By achieving this goal, the foundations will improve the whole ecosystem and will also provide a better user experience for the Tron community.
The first ever Tron summit will take place in San Francisco on January 17th and 18th. The summit will be present to the well-known influencers in the cryptocurrency space and if not, it will also present the best break-through projects. In addition, the Foundation will reveal further details regarding BitTorrent and Project Atlas, one of the highlights of the summit.
