TRX

pb__

You were right to be sceptical, they resumed just TRX, lol. "more cryptocurrencies within the next two weeks"

mxpauwer

LINK really needs to kick TRX out of the Top 10

Big_Dick920

What's the cheapest service to sell TRX/USDT for EUR in Europe? Or converting my TRX/USDT to something that Coinbase accepts (like USDC) is good too.

SvReenen

Well I was really unlucky. I transferred a few shitcoins too poloniex the same night the hack took place. It was the only exchange that had listed all the coins I needed to sell since Binance is no longer available where I live. But anyway they opened up withdraws for TRX only two days ago. It was trading 5% above the price on other exchanges but I didnt care about it because I expected it all to be gone anyway. Did it the moment it came available and they processed the withdraw immediatley.

#TRON #TRX for sure.

tldr; The relevant text for the article title "Poloniex prepares to resume withdrawals after $100M hack" is about Poloniex announcing the gradual resumption of deposit and withdrawal services after suffering a $100-million hack. The exchange will prioritize the safety of user funds and start restoring Tron (TRX) deposits and withdrawals first, followed by other cryptocurrencies within the next two weeks. Additionally, Poloniex is working on introducing new listings and conducting an airdrop for users who keep their assets on the exchange. The airdrop campaign is expected to launch in December. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

Looks like they've enabled withdrawals for stables, BTC, ETH, TRX, and a few other alts, however, withdrawals are still suspended for the majority of other assets

Noobie question again pls: How can i buy or get ETH aka gas fee for the Etherium network without having credit card or paypal etc ? i live in a shitty place and i dont have access to any payment option. I was paid for a job i did with TRC USDT and TRX and decided to bridge some amount to ERC USDT but completely forgot about the gas fee and now i cant do anything with my ERC USDT :(

divinesleeper

because TRX is faster and cheaper than all of those when transferring between exchanges

squiblib

TRX seems to be the fastest and cheapest to move USDT.

FordPrefect343

This is a low key shill post for TRX

Feeling-Inside5147

For TRX, liquidity.

poginmydog

Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, most ETH L2 supports USDT and USDC. AVAX also supports it. Why use BSC and TRX when any of the above chains are better?

Yup same with TRX and that coin has performed extremely well.

deadleg22

Any attention is good attention for poocoins, just look at TRX.

Tvmouth

My personal metric says TRX will hit $0.19 and correct to $0.05 before the BTC and *other alt* season really starts. **That's** the liquidity receding into the ocean before the tsunami is visible.

I have some USDT laying around on my TrustWallet which I wanted to sell but I'm missing about 20 TRX to send it to MoonPay. Is there any broker that sells such small amounts without KYC? Ideally if I could buy it directly to my Trust Wallet. MoonPay sadly has a minimal value of 30 EUR.

tldr; Poloniex, a cryptocurrency exchange, was hacked for over $114 million in ETH, TRX, and other coins. The attack was timed to take advantage of the recent market pump. User funds were not affected, but it is recommended to move coins to another exchange or hardware wallet temporarily. Security firms flagged the exploit, and the hackers continued to siphon funds until Poloniex's wallets were drained. The first few minutes during an ongoing exploit are crucial for damage limitation. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

Question is why Poloniex, despite being associated with a wealthy individual like Justin Sun, couldn't ensure better security Justin Sun could have invested his funds to significantly enhance the security of his exchange and none of this could happen in first place. Atm It's the only users' choice to choose trusted exchanges at this moment. I'm still glad I didn't trade any TRX on that exchange, I used Bitget exchange to do all of my trades.

tldr; A crypto wallet belonging to the digital asset exchange Poloniex has been breached, resulting in the loss of over $100 million in cryptocurrency. The incident is believed to be a "private key compromise" and the funds have already been transferred to external accounts. Poloniex has disabled the wallet and is investigating the hack. The exchange plans to fully reimburse affected users and is offering a 5% bounty to the hacker if the funds are returned within seven days. Despite the hack, the price of Tron (TRX) has increased by 20%. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

Beside day trading TRX actually have a lot of inflow and outflow. Its Sun and friend’s Underground Railroad Ngl ive use it a few times to move money. You know Sun is up to something when txn fee out to TRX is Pennies. On the flip side you can Probabaly guess what his current standing is in the crypto world by the cex transfer out fee.

It is impressive with how well it’s held up over time. There are so many other projects from 2017 that seemed better than Tron that are dead projects now while Tron is in spot 11 in 2023. Justin Sun is just too much like a greasy used car sales man for me to be able to take TRX seriously.

Finally managed to sell my TRX at 0.10$ and had a short 0.11$ that was triggered :D Feels like a sin holding TRX, but it makes money

Thanks for sharing this news. TRX is up big today!

Steezy_Steve1990

I remember I bought a bag of TRX back in 2017 when I first got into crypto. After seeing his shenanigans and constantly releasing news to pump TRX then turning out to be nothing I quickly got out and sold it all and never looked at it again. The guy is just a con artist.

paulgnz

Funny now TRX is pumping lol

SeriousGains

TRX up big on the news! Gotta love crypto.

Tartooth

Most of the funds went and bought TRX which caused a pump...

SeriousGains

Started out 80% TRX and now I’m at 45% BTC 25% TRX 20% ETH 10% Others.

UnnaturalGeek

ETH, WSM and CHIMPZ (early in prelaunch), though intrigued by TRX if anyone has any decent info on it?

SeriousGains

My top holdings are BTC, ETH, TRX, ADA, and XMR but I only really believe in BTC and TRX and only ever recommend people to buy BTC.

eilchner

I have some USDT laying around on my TrustWallet which I wanted to sell but I'm missing about 20 TRX to send it to MoonPay. Is there any broker that sells such small amounts without KYC? Ideally if I could buy it directly to my Trust Wallet. MoonPay sadly has a minimal value of 30 EUR.

SeriousGains

I buy more. People here have been calling TRX a scam since 2018. I’ve been buying and holding ever since. It is by far my most profitable investment of the past 2 years. During the period from February 2022 to present TRX has gained almost 70% while Bitcoin lost over 25%.

SeriousGains

TRX has historically been the most hated coin on this sub.

SeriousGains

Same with TRX.

pokeholo23

To many to name and think about. But selling those coins months ago and shorting them was a good choice. You can you do, but if I now say TRX and you go buy it won't help you because I know what my plans are and you trade differently from me. Just know that high APR coins and high Inflation coins tend to loose more than the APR such as ATOM. (high apr)

SeriousGains

TRX always undervalued.

roundcomedian61

mehhh.. BitCoke ... besides their stupid name, they are good but only if youre trading one crypto for another. they dont do FIAT or futures, so no good to me usually but when trading a large amount of BTC to TRX they gave me the best price so there is that

piggleii

If we get another alt season, I might (might!) go contrarian and buy some TRX, purely because everyone hates it.

MoonuhXO

Hello is there anyone that can send me 28 TRX ($3) if so please contact me. Please.

Feeling-Inside5147

You need native TRX on Tron Network. You can use Swap Space to get some.

pokeholo23

TRX and Link might do good, but they won't hit those ATHs when interest rates aren't at 0%. The way up is very long and can only be done with the 0%

alltimecards

Worst: FOMO’ed into dogelonmars. Best: FOMO’ed into TRX right before a 10x. Worst again: didn’t sell said TRX until after it went back to the original price

Certain_Lifeguard_31

Is TRX any good? It has one of the best looking charts 👌

One_Pause6446

TRX, that coin doesn't care about the market, it sets his own pace.

SeriousGains

TRX has been extremely consistent since the bear market bottom. Props for including it in your analysis despite it being the most hated coin on the sub.

Dazzling_Marzipan474

I never even heard of FDUSD til now. So that volume is INSANE! That's more volume at 1.65B than: BNB: 273M XRP: 730M SOL: 251M ADA: 105M DOGE: 126M TRX: 137M COMBINED at Total: 1.62B Ya something isn't right.

Ethwh4le

This is so hard to say cause i feel every coin in top 10 is solid and ain’t going away anytime soon maybe TRX

goldyluckinblokchain

I'm sure his time will come or at least I pray it does. He deserves to be locked up just for that cringey video he made of TRX saving planet earth

flarept1

On the top 50. BTC down 60% ETH down 67% BNB down 69% Most of the others are 85-95% down. Only better performers are TRX(62%), OKB(26%) and MNT(40%)

vhanke

This guy just always seems shady af to me. I can't believe TRX is stil top 15 after all these years...

alltimecards

I would’ve sold TRX at the peak in 2018

photog623

It's baffling how $TRX is being traded at almost 50% down from ATH. Can we say the same thing about any other crypto?

Curatole

If you don't count stables then TRX. Don't know how this coin still in the crypto, let alone top 15 as Justin is the biggest scammer in the cryptoverse.

TRX and Doge

#TRON Con-Arguments Below is a TRON con-argument written by CreepToeCurrentSea. > TRON is a decentralized, open-source blockchain-based operating system with smart contract functionality, a proof-of-stake consensus algorithm, and its own cryptocurrency, Tronix (TRX). Justin Sun founded it in March 2014, and it has been overseen and supervised by the TRON Foundation, a non-profit organization in Singapore founded the same year. It began as an Ethereum-based ERC-20 token before migrating to its own blockchain in 2018. > > # CONS > > **Whitepaper Plagiarism** > > In January 2018, Tron's developers were accused of plagiarism after many sections of the Tron whitepaper appeared nearly identical to IPFS and Filecoin technical documentation. IPFS is an acronym for InterPlanetary File System. Juan Benet, CEO of Protocol Labs, which develops IFPS tools and services, revealed on Twitter in early January 2018 that Tron's whitepaper authors did not properly cite references and that the document was "mostly copied" from other projects. Even the equations and formulas mentioned in the first version of Tron's whitepaper were identical to those found in IPFS documentation. Sun claimed to have a "very detailed" reference to the most recent Chinese version of the Tron whitepaper. He also claimed that the Tron paper was translated into other languages by volunteers who may have overlooked important details. Just as Vitalik had also sarcastically said in twitter regarding the teams copy-pasting abilities, this just goes to show how un-genuine their team appears even making the most basic of mistakes. > > **Question of Vulnerability** > > A barrage of requests sent by a single PC could be used to squeeze the power of the blockchain's CPU, overload the memory, and perform a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack, according to HackerOne. "Using a single machine, an attacker could send DDOS attack to all or 51 percent of the Super Representative (SR) node and render Tron network unusable or unavailable," the claim goes. While TRON is somewhat better in marketing compared to other cryptocurrencies, it falls short on one of the most important pillars for an effective one, that of which is security. To hinder a blockchain with just one computer is the polar opposite of what you want a cryptocurrency to be. > > **Un-Stablecoin** > > TRON's native stablecoin "USDD" de-pegged to the US dollar earlier this year, falling to as low as 91 cents. Its design is uncannily similar to Terra's stablecoin, UST, which lost its price peg and imploded a month ago, wiping out $40 billion in market value. If it continues to follow UST's path considering how similar they are in function and structure, one could assume they also have a ticking algorithmic time bomb in the making. > > **Final Thoughts** > > It seems that TRON has a knack for idolizing (to the point of almost copying their work) other projects both in and out of the crypto-sphere. What I do hope is that they also know what not absorb. Else, they have nothing but a mushed up bowl of their favorite things and just decided it would stick together with glue and duct tape. > > Sources: > > [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tron\_(cryptocurrency)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tron_(cryptocurrency)) > > [https://cryptoslate.com/justin-suns-controversies-plagiarism-teslas-warren-buffett-kidney-stones-and-a-deleted-apology/](https://cryptoslate.com/justin-suns-controversies-plagiarism-teslas-warren-buffett-kidney-stones-and-a-deleted-apology/) > > [https://www.inverse.com/article/40050-tron-trx-cryptocurrency-plagiarism-scandal](https://www.inverse.com/article/40050-tron-trx-cryptocurrency-plagiarism-scandal) > > [https://www.zdnet.com/article/tron-critical-security-flaw-could-break-the-entire-blockchain/](https://www.zdnet.com/article/tron-critical-security-flaw-could-break-the-entire-blockchain/) > > [https://fortune.com/2022/06/13/algorithmic-stablecoin-usdd-loses-peg-justin-sun-tron-decentralized-usd/](https://fortune.com/2022/06/13/algorithmic-stablecoin-usdd-loses-peg-justin-sun-tron-decentralized-usd/) ***** Would you like to learn more?

I mean if the plan is to pump TRX, isn't it a good move to go long on it?

spamohh

I wonder if he has some type of insider info, or if he just needs the money. Could be all going to pump his TRX while dumping ETH as well

spamohh

He's been doing it for a while now, wonder if he's just waiting for a small exit pump to cash it all out. Being Justin Sun I wouldn't be surprised if he had some insider info. Could also be selling to then pump his other scummy project (TRX) while dumping ETH

pokeholo23

bought a lil TRX i hate the coin, but it might have a lil upside to about 0.089$ cents Don't think it will be break that price and then fall back again, but you never know because the Coin and everything around it is so corrupt

mochi_ball223

Which alts surprised you by not getting rekt during the bear market? Mine was Tron (TRX), that one kept kicking in the green for some reason

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Huobi Wallet, now iToken, was exploited on October 3, with funds being divided and transferred multiple times. There is speculation that this may be another inside job, as the platform has a history of deploying Trojans. The exploit resulted in the loss of approximately 263,000 USDT and 92 TRX. The bad actor swapped the stolen funds for approximately 2.9 million TRX and transferred them out. Some users allege that it was an inside job, as Chinese police have previously arrested internal employees of Huobi for setting up Trojan viruses to steal from user accounts. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

You people don't understand Tron. Let's you make free transactions by staking TRX. Tell me another chain that does that?

ieatmoondust

Is this why TRX has had such unusual staying power? Lol

lovelybittabusiness

That title is wholly different from insinuating that TRX is a scheme used by drug cartels. USD is used to fund drug deals every day, does that mean that it's a scam too? .. wait

pokeholo23

TRX do's it

IlIlllIIllllIIlI

Buy TRX, because you can’t go wrong with Top10 /s

pokeholo23

I already gave enough tips recently on shorting BTC, TRX, XRP, SOL all of them fell as expected. Gonna take time later in the week to research again :c
