Distinct features of TRON

By making use of peer-to-peer (P2P) network technology, TRON’s content creators can directly connect with their audience. In other words, it ensures the elimination of middlemen, thus making content less expensive for consumers.

Further, the platform uses the delegated proof-of-stake consensus model. Here, its token holders can freeze their coins so as to help Tron to get power and the right to vote for super representatives.

These super representatives serve as block producers, who get TRX rewards in exchange for verifying transactions and, in turn, distribute the rewards among their voters. Thus, this process helps TRON to achieve higher levels of throughput.
