Still, the token dropped 36% to decline to a low of about 0.027 in the past three days.<br \/>\nHowever, as of writing this article, Tron had risen by about 50% to trade at $0.05 or 680 Satoshis.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the advantage which Tron holds against other cryptocurrencies, particularly in the field of gambling and entertainment, a tweet by Justin Sun announcing a rapid rise in the number nodes in the past 48 hour period has triggered a rally.<\/p>\n<p>Tron is currently depending on the ERC20 TRONIx token or the Ethereum network as of no. A migration to mainnet means Tron will have 100 million customers straight away. Tron enables content creators to generate revenue, while avoiding middle men. The content is also protected by the blockchain network. The company is confident of achieving its 2018 goals, making it the most attractive dApp platform for developers.<\/p>\n<p><center><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">It took <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TRON?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TRON<\/a> just two days to go from 126 to 253 nodes in 5 continents!
