Hello @stellabelle! Excellent write up! What is your professional background please? Is it in the financial or investment sector? Do you have any predictions on how the proposed partnership will impact TRON? Follow me@ senseicat

I bought a ton of Tron a month ago. I’m glad I did. Your article definitely helps me to understand what TRON is about. Now I’m going to have to try TRON out just for fun.

I heard you can buy Trx puppies already. I heard English site coming at end of week

Tron have no working product (just great teams and promises). There is only an idea behind this coin and the implementation is still a long way off. Although the intentions and technologies are described in great detail in the respective whitebooks, in my opinion this does not justify a billion-dollar market capitalization for a long time.

Whenever I saw TRON's token, I just keep thinking of that Disney movie LOL

tron to the mooon ;) ;)

It is not more since TRON is one of the top cryptocurrencies and I was always curious about the project so thanks for the information

Another steemian rok-sivante just mentioned TRON less than an hour ago as one of the coins he missed out on during ICO but still got in on after the ICO. It looks like a pretty interesting coin. I would like you to do a dummy version of Cardano (ADA). Could it be all hype? Hard to tell.

I saw Dan Larimer's opinoin on Cardana, and he said the tech is a piece of crap, or something like that. I am thinking it might not be a good coin.....I have not looked into it yet though.

He may be right, and I am always careful of overhyped coins.

Ok, I’m Ready To Buy, How Do I Get My TRON Tokens?

In all fairness, many crypto newbies act on impulse and fomo, and ignore disclaimers. Respectfully, if you've known for a while, wouldn't it be better to post this before Tron goes up 120% in a 24 hours per coinmarketcap (or not exactly during/after)?

It's generally not wise to buy something right after such a vertical move, and a post like this could inadvertently be an advertisement for dummies to jump right in and go weeeee.

I feel that while educational and helpful, guiding people how to buy it now feels like it has the potential to be a short-term bagholder generator.

I spent 8 hours researching it 3 days ago when it was 5 cents, and as an entrepreneur myself, I am busy. I usually have to research for days in order to get the article out in the right way. I am giving information here, because many people have asked for it. There's no reason to hide information. If TRON succeeds, it will be way above where it is right now, and that's because no one even knew what it is about...

Completely understood. Info is wonderful and I have no doubt that you put in the effort to generate a nice article. My point is more of the ilk that the potential reader is a "dummy "> reads your informative post > and is then guided at the end with encouragement/direction how to buy, presumably being ready after reading it. Much more research like you did could be called for, but not everyone does their due diligence during a fomo phase to jump on the train. Just looking out for people for the potential risks as much as you're looking to help them not miss an opportunity.

This is just how it came across to me when there wasn't any fair language to be careful buying into a 4x+ price pump and to be prepared for a pullback. As we both said, short-term is the relative risk in discussion. Long-term it'll likely work its way out if one buys now or after any potential correction, etc.. Thanks for the quick response.

Ugh binance isn’t allowing any new accounts right now! :(

Thanks for the tips, I’ve been hearing about it for a week and very curious to learn more. Kudos for the future/sexy crypto treatment.

what??????? Are you serious? That's insane!

yeah they put up the temporary block this morning. It's not good times. Need to grab accounts on all the exchanges for "just in case I need it" before they shut down new accounts.

Maybe we should start some sort of coin exchange on Steem where people go out and buy these coins that are only available on one exchange where people can't get accounts. End user sends BTC/ETH to an account on the exchange, we buy the token and transfer it to the MyEtherWallet of their choosing.

It's going to come to that soon with some of the small caps I have a feeling.

i don't know where else one can buy TRX....i think Binance was it.....maybe some other Asian exchanges?

You can get it on Liqui and HitBTC, but Hitbit is currently an outlier, so their wallet may be "down"....funny stuff going on over at hitbit...lots of wallets are "down".

is it true there is a Steem debit card in Liqui?

Hmmm...I dunno. I should look into it!

I was thinking to ask my cousin to do that!

Same thing bittrex... :-(

Yup.. you are very much right.. no new binance registerations for now.. i was lucky that i just registered 2 days ago to get myself some EOS..

Nice, but can you do another post on peiwo? is it a pirated music/video site in China? The legality of peiwo might matter a bit in the end here.

it's not a pirated app or anything like that.

Thank you for explanation

Tnx for sharing. Founder is amazing. This token definitely going into my watchlist.

Oooh am off to learning more about Tron and even buy some hehehe.
This year is for diversifying crypto investments.
Those 10 m users will this coins massive growth,thanks for the update .

OMG THAT PICTURE!!! I haven't even read the article yet... but I am DYING!!! Stella that's hilarious!!

there is absolutely no reason to make photocollages boring!

people have been asking me on Twitter for Tron For Dummies, so i finally got it done today....8 hours of research later.....

I'm glad to hear your research kept you in on it! I haven't had time to do that sort of analysis, but what I did have time for suggested that taking $100 in SBD value to sock in to Tron was not a bad idea.

My problem is that I want to be in on so many things right now and don't have the liquidity to do it! I'm looking at my poor 10.86 ZCL sitting there waiting to pump and dying to bulk that up before the snapshot. But it is hard to buy parts of a $100 coin when the same money can buy 500 penny coins. ungh! Decisions are hard yo!

Research is my first love! Without the ability to go off into long reading, for days, I would hate my life. Steemit gave me that....my love of research and the freedom to learn.

Stellabelle, hi, do you have any good recommendations for discord channels where there's more than just trading? Desperately want to find good live conversations that aren't filled with pump bs. thanks, alx. Came to my feed to look for that, but reading about tron after i post my question, since i actually didn't know what it was.

Or anyone else who has knowledge of steemit/crypto/city-zen sourcing/AVR Discords. ALX#3690 I also have a TINY channel that's got a couple very bright/poetic forward looking Idea People. https://discord.gg/RU6HMq Sorry for utilizing steemit to network like that, but getting to know people over the time it takes to get a following of not bots, when not a long form writer, is difficult. Alx

I don't know

Sorry to bother. Comment sections can be good but I get super annoyed by contentless comments and the space they take. I’m in the Steemit world 24/7 and I simply need to expand channels.

TRON sounds like the coin to make dreams come through. I'm buying and keeping and I intend to see the end of it, if it ever comes. Thanks for sharing.

I love my TRON bought it for 50 satos each and it looks like they will make me a very happy man this year :)))

Already grabbed my bag. I dont know if it deserves to be where it is on the coinmarketcap right now, but Im sure by the end of this year it will deserve to be there if they do the things they have on the roadmap!

i love it when we all refer to it as our 'bags'. it still cracks me up!!!!! I grabbed a bag too, one day before Binance crashed from the TRON flock!

Thanks for the great read Stellabelle. I guess I should stop selling some of my Tron every time it goes up 20%. Looks like a good long-term coin.

TRON the next Currency this will be a great coin to invest in ;)

Up 100%, I could handle that kind of one day action, Yikes !!

I like your way of writing.
Impressive thoughts and much appreciated efforts.

stay blessed

thank you for taking the time to explain it for us! I don't synchronize with the idea behind it. So it might be a good coin, but i am not sure about its values. And I am not so much in agreement with the Chinese industry so I have some fixed ideas :))

And to answer your question: CARDANO. Would u make an article for dummies about it? :)

Great post I've been wanting to learn more about this one. Just tweeted, resteemed and it will be added to tonights Daily Dood!

Ok, thanks! There's so much to keep up with! I heard TRX 3 times a few days ago, so I set aside an entire day of 8 hours of studying.......this is only a very short list of features. The blockchain tech is what I still don't know about with TRON.

So many people talking up Tron, how can it not be in your portfolio? I bought about 300 more last night to add to my portfolio (bringing me to around 800) and they have already doubled in value overnight. Still looks like a cheap buy in at $0.22. Will keep buying as I am able to for as long as the price stays down in this range.

Great things, Awesome Name, Love the movies (plural, the second one was good too, if misguided), excited about the token!

TRON captures the imagination like no other. The young founder with his business chops is ready to TRONify the world. We're in!

I feel that even if the tech isn't good, this team will be able to buy off the best talent, or just copy Dan Larimer. That's the way bubble gum goes...

A friend I got into crypto a little while ago has been talking about Tron to me for awhile now and finally decided to check it. Was looking for something to add to my portfolio and after reading a bit about it I think I might’ve found the right thing. Might wait for yhe euphoria to calm a bit and buy on a healthy dip.

Tron 🚀💪

I bought 7k tron when it was about 7 cents, so here is to hoping!

Good call man :)

Sign me up for the "lazy silly adults" part. I sure know how to work, but damn if I don't know how to play :D

TRON tokens might also be the new thing around now. This post has given me an insight too into what it is about. You are always helpful, really.
In my appreciation post, i wrote something about you. If you have the time, you can read through.

Protege of Jack Ma? I'm in!

I saw binance gave people some free TRON. I haven't touched it luckily :)

great info, i will do my own research and get in on trx, looks promising

100% in the last 24h. It's simply insane!

Tron was one of the few coins that survived when I culled down the too many coins in my personal portfolio. I thought the name was coincidental with one of my favorite franchises, but was glad to see the naming was intentional.

Yes, uber, futuristic, even just their website.

This sounds great, I will make my own research about it.

Is their any association between it and steemit?

Nice post

I was really feeling lazy for researching TRON... XD That was helpful, thanks!

The first picture is so funny hahahah))
Very productive and well written!

So you say to take a look at Tron?
Hmm, after reading I think it's worth a try.
Thank you for sharing lady Stella.

Hello @stellabelle, I'm also crypto newbie here. Many thing to see and briliant idea to see and learn with crypto. onething I know we should learn anything!

We aren't dummies speak English or at least human.

I bought when I was barely 200 Satoshis but only 1500 coins, but something is something not? ;)

Loading...

Love it! Will share this with my women's group, I know some of them were interested in tron and have started to invest small amounts.
When I tried to download a wallet and subscribe to their newsletter, I only got Chinese versions :) Maybe that has changed in the meantime?

How about doing Verge or Bitbay next, since you're looking for suggestions. Unless you already did them. Wouldn't be surprised if had done Verge already. Will check your blog again :)

By end of next week, site should be in English.
As you know, I speak Japanese, so when stuff is in Asian languages, it doesn't phase me. I used Reddit to translaste how to get an account on TRON. I heard they will airdrop coins to the first milion accouts, but not sure of that really, I got an account anyway.
I'm thinking of Bitbay next. Thanks for tip.

I really like bitbay - I've had it for almost a year. I think it's solid, they regularly update their subscribers, the price grows steadily and if only moves "out of order" when the rest of the market is doing the same. its like they are quietly and diligently working behind the scenes and hopefully reveal something epic one day.

The best thing about crypto is that i have a very short attention span plus an inexhaustible amount of curiousity about new things....this makes me the ideal blogger....in crypto! What used to be a problem, is now a positive.....this is actually why i love crypto so much. It moves like lightning!

Ha, yess! That also makes you one of the (supposedly) minorities who used to be excluded (from "success") in the old paradigm and can now flourish with their individualism and creativity - by the power of blockchain!!
We will seen very soon though how large these minority groups truly are, though, when they all come out and dare to be seen.
