How Well is TRON (TRX) Recovering from the Market Crash

Published

on

TRON

With TRON planning on releasing its own Test Net and having its price dizzily dropping while experiencing massive losses, this currency is in the center of attention for quite some time now. We are following up on what is TRON up to these days as well try to predict how this currency will perform in the days to come as the launching of Test Net is approaching, slowly, but steadily.

A Reminder about TRON

Starting with the main idea behind this currency, TRON exists with the purpose of helping the development and easy functioning of the entertainment industry. This term is pretty wide as TRON supports any type of media, including content, games, applications, videos, and even social media.

Although TRON was launched only a couple of months ago in September 2017, this currency has flourished during this short period of time, trading at the amazing price of 0.30$ per short after it was listed as ICO.

The most interesting part about TRON currency is that TRX aims at helping different people dealing with the entertainment industry to establish ownership over their intellectual property. Whether you are making music, uploading videos or dealing with online content, TRX is planning on establishing a blockchain-based network that would allow all TRON users to list their creations and acquire ownership over their intellectual property without having to submit to the policy and rules of any third parties like YouTube for example.

When you are uploading your videos to YouTube, the fact is that you need to oblige to the rules of the website and its policy in case you want to use their services. With TRX platform, all creators that are dealing with the entertainment industry would be able to easily establish their ownership. The only condition to gaining access to this feature is to own a TRX wallet with TRON units in it.

This being said, TRON is actually trying to remove the presence of any third parties, i.e. middleman, that appear in the entertainment industry. Those would be service providers like YouTube or Instagram. Thanks to the blockchain technology and the nature of decentralization, you can now rely on TRON for proving your ownership while being able to directly collect profit from your work without any hidden fees or third parties taking their share.

Test Net and TRON

TRON, a currency with the greatest number of partnerships acquired over a short period of time, is planning on launching its own Test Net.

So far, TRX was hosted on Ethereum’s platform, existing within Ethereum ecosystem and working on top of its blockchain network, but as of the end of the month, TRX will have its own blockchain platform.

The launching of their Test Net was announced to be launched on March 31st and from that point on, TRX will exist and work on its own platform. The fact that this currency is getting its own network says a lot about TRX’s progress as this novelty would leave lots of space for further progress. It is also needless to say that the launching of the Test Net will surely draw more investors into the story behind this currency.

One would think that the fact that TRX is getting its own platform while moving on from being an Ethereum-based token would affect TRON’s price positively, but it seems that the excitement about the Test Net being released has settled down.

TRON: Price

Tron appeared as a massive success when it appeared in September 2017 while dealing at the price of nearly 0.30$ per one unit, rocking the crypto market. However, since those days there have been many changes so TRON managed to lose nearly 80% of its market capitalization.

TRX has managed to drop for 80% from dealing at 0.30$ to trading at only 0.05$ per one unit.

After the latest drop of -8.20% in the period of only 24 hours, TRON is now worth 0.04276$ per one unit. If you think that a bad case of series of drops in price can wipe out a coin, you are mistaken, because although TRX has dropped severely, this currency still has a chance thanks to its technological capabilities and the upcoming Test Net where TRX will exist on its own operating platform.

If you take into consideration that unlike Bitcoin or majority of coins and tokens, TRON is still pretty young, this currency has had an amazing breakthrough into the crypto market.

TRON is still listed as the 14th best coin on the global coin ranking list, and chances are that it could climb up the ladder of success further with the upcoming date of Test Net launching.

On the bright side of the story of having TRON losing 80% of its market cap, TRX is the number one currency in the number of partnerships, which this currency managed to acquire within a very short period of time. The bottom line is not to lose your faith in a coin of your choice just because it’s going through a rough patch with the market breakdown.

Hong Kong, Hong Kong, 25th January, 2021, // ChainWire //

Xeno Holdings Limited (xno.live ), a blockchain solutions company based in Hong Kong, has announced the listing of its ecosystem utility token XNO on the ‘Bithumb Korea’ cryptocurrency exchange on January 21st 2021.

Xeno NFT Hub (market.xno.live ), developed by Xeno Holdings, enables easy minting of digital items into NFTs while also providing a marketplace where anyone can securely trade NFTs.

The Xeno NFT Hub project team includes former members of the technology project Yosemite X based in San Francisco and professionals such as Gabby Dizon who is a games industry expert and NFT space influencer based in Southeast Asia.

NFT(Non-Fungible Token) technology has recently gained huge focus in the blockchain arena and beyond, making waves in the online gaming sector, the art world, and the digital copyrights industry in recent years. The strongest feature of NFTs is that “NFTs are unique digital assets that cannot be replaced or forged”. Unlike fungible tokens such as Bitcoin or Ether, NFTs are not interchangeable for other tokens of the same type but instead each NFT has a unique value and specific information that cannot be replaced. This fact makes NFTs the perfect solution to record and prove ownership of digital and real-world items like works of art, game items, limited-edition collectibles, and more. One of the ways to have a successful…

Should Crypto Projects Devote Resources to Community Growth and Marketing?

Published

on

2020 has been an incredible year for crypto as investors have generated windfall profits and crypto projects have seen their businesses gain the spotlight they’ve been looking for.  While Bitcoin has received most of the attention after major institutional investors announced they were accumulating the increasingly scarce asset, many altcoins have also seen their fair share of glory.  When looking at all the big winners of the past year, the first project that probably comes to mind is Chainlink, having appreciated by more than 550% YTD and now valued at over $4.5 billion.  But, the actual biggest winner of the year is HEX with a YTD return of over 5,000%.

I mention both of the above projects as they have each taken slightly different paths to achieve greatness.  Chainlink has devoted resources toward building a fundamentally sound business with many strategic partnerships while HEX has spent vast sums of money on marketing and promotion.  Both approaches are valid, but one thing is certain, it is absolutely imperative for crypto projects to let the crypto community know what makes them special.  Of course, one of the reasons that makes crypto so valuable is the powerful blockchain technology that most projects are utilizing.

Cryptocurrency vs. Blockchain Technology

It’s important to make a distinction between blockchain technology and cryptocurrency.  Although they are often used interchangeably, they are different.  Blockchain technology and crypto were both created after the 2008 financial crisis, but cryptocurrency…

He also added “This does not mean we will prohibit other types of NFTs from our ecosystem However, it simply means that XENO’s efforts as a company will be targeted into these verticals initially as a cohesive business approach.”

Development and Procurement Lead, Gabby Dizon explained, “Despite our initial focus, we found ourselves with a unique opportunity to host some of the works of Mr. Hiro Yamagata. We are collaborating with Japanese artist Hiro Yamagata to enshrine some of his artwork into NFTs.”
