The Tron Network can be seen to be a major contender to Ethereum and many other blockchains that allows Developers create their own projects using the infrastructure of the parent ecosystem. The major reason to this is because of transaction costs which is a near zero cost as long as the user has enough coins frozen for that purpose. I myself prefer the use of Tron specifically for it's Transaction fees as they are feasible for use in my locality in sending transactions. Although there is low adoption for use of this coin for making payments because it's major usefulness was for Developers to create their own projects under it's ecosystem using the infrastructure provided by the Tron Network. I Being more of a Crypto trader, my focus on Tron was on its price and I can say, Tron isn't a good coin for long term holders but the Volatility in it's price is good enough for trading. The mining model for it's coin is a good option for the environment and might be one of the reason the project will stand the test of time.
A major reason to why Tron is being antagonized today is due to the way it's Creator shared the supply of the coin which appears to be more of being centralized rather than following the tenets of Decentralization of cryptocurrencies. Also the supply of the maximum supply of the coin (which is one thing many holders Look into) doesn't make the coin to be seeing good price movements in the future but is still good for the staking rewards it provides for freezing the coins. Am not a fan of the Tron coin or it's project in general, but it all the same stands out among many other Crypto projects out there today and might still be a good option for nascent investors and traders
