Tron Foundation and its founder Justin Sun, have been key advocates of pushing virtual currencies into the space of mainstream adoption. The multiple updates and developments can support this fact the Tron roster has been putting out with a majority of them being network upgrades and alliances with other institutions.

It is without a doubt that the cryptocurrency market is going through substantial changes every minute, with the performance of most digital assets fluctuating consistently. Tron (TRX) has not been an exception to this trend as the 11th largest virtual currency on CoinMarketCap, is also failing to show significant price surges in the market.

However, as it has become the norm, Tron network updates and developments have kept pace with the weekly report published by the Tron Foundation noting all the significant developmental changes that take place.

Despite the stagnant performance in the past 48 hours, Tron (TRX) has been leading a weekend altcoin rally after the announcements of its plans to incorporate decentralized storage into BitTorrent the file-sharing platform.

According to Tron Foundation, the cryptocurrency company is keen to take advantage of BitTorrent’s superior platform to further boost and decentralize BitTorrent’s user base of 100 plus million. The peer-to-peer file sharing platform will integrate BitTorrent’s file sharing capabilities (BTFS) to allow users to host and receive storage on personal computers with other parties and businesses.

The Tron Foundation has also shown its commitment in topping its closest rivals, EOS, and Ethereum (ETH), with the introduction of Web 4.0 that is taunted to be a game changer in its space.

Tron (TRX) Sets a new Block Height Record

Today, on 4th June, according to the latest information from the Tron BlockChain Explorer, https://tronscan.org, Tron blockchain height managed to exceed the 9.8 million mark to stand at about 9,819,970 currently.
