Tron [TRX] is writing blockchain history with over 2 million transactions & 700,000 registered accounts, says Justin Sun

Justin Sun, the Founder and CEO of Tron Foundation, recently announced the new milestones crossed by Tron, on his official Twitter handle. This comes in the wake of Tron Arcade, the Foundation’s $100 million investment in the game industry for the next three years.

The month started with Tron “writing blockchain history” by crossing 2 million transactions and over 700,000 registered accounts. Sun declared that this is the beginning and that there will be more exciting news during Tron’s first event, niTron 2019.

Justin Sun said on Twitter:

“New record 2.39 M! 4 times than #ETH. We should celebrate! #TRON”

Ethereum has always been the top competitor for Tron, with Justin Sun claiming that Tron will soon surpass the now third biggest cryptocurrency and the leading smart contract platform. Additionally, Sun recently called out all the Ethereum developers to shift to Tron. This is taking into consideration that Tron Virtual Machine is completely compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine, with developers empowered to shift from the EVM to TVM at almost no cost.

Sun also has previously stated that Tron’s network will be 200 times faster than that of Ethereum’s, adding that Tron will be able to execute over 2000 transactions per second as opposed to Ethereum’s 25 transactions per second.

Matt Reynolds, a Twitterati said:

“@APompliano just another day of #TRX smashing #ETH in daily transactions. Tron is only operating at around .01 % capacity with no pending transactions unlike Ethereum which is @ 100% capacity with 70,000 transactions pending. Don’t get left out. Tron is clearly the new Ethereum.”

Moreover, Justin Sun and Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, had a face off on Twitter, with Sun calling out a statement made by Buterin.

During an interview with Smart Valor, Vitalik spoke about the current price trend of the market. He stated that the next wave of cryptocurrency adoption is going to be through actual application of the technology, and is not going to build on hype.

Sun said on Twitter:

“Vitalik: next wave of crypto is not going to be built on hype. @VitalikButerin admits that #ETH lead the 2017 bull run built on hype. #TRON will lead next bull run built on massive adoption dapps and @BitTorrent . #TRX $TRX“

Vitalik retaliated by stating:

“Heuristic #103: anyone who puts a dollar sign followed by a ticker symbol in their tweet is basically a self-identified shill and not worth listening to.”

This was followed by Sun stating that they can discuss about the dollar sign after Ethereum reaches 2 million transactions per day, adding “which I think will never happen”.
