TRON Continues to Push Updates and Partnerships

The platform which aims to build an ecosystem for the development of D’Apps and promotion of blockchain solutions has been at the forefront of the ecosystem with major milestones since its launch in 2017.
The acquisition of BitTorrent in 2018 has seen the platform become a major player in the p-2-p file transfer sector. In addition, the recent acquisition of Steem is yet another great potential for the TRON ecosystem.
