By The founder and CEO of TRON (TRX) Justin Sun recently made a statement, claiming that the TRON platform will “officially collaborate” with Ethereum (ETH) this year. Sun’s comment was made during an interview on The Crypto Chick podcast on April 6th.
Sun specifically stated that he thinks “even within this year we will see Tron even collaborate, officially collaborate, with Ethereum.” In reply to a question on Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin’s recent tweets about Tron, Sun asserted that he believes “competition brings a better product.”
Sun went on to add:
“I think in the future we will even collaborate with lots of Ethereum developers and also the enterprises built on Ethereum before to make the industry better.”
Furthermore, Sun also announced that a second layer scalability solution for Tron, which the CEO claims will increase transaction throughput by at least 100 times as well as drastically reduce fees, will be deployed by the team in the second quarter of 2019.
Sun also recently tweeted about the scalability upgrade which has been named the Sun Network, but the CEO failed to mention a launch date for the upgrade.
Sun, during the podcast, also stated that the Tron-based version the stablecoin Tether (USDT) is ready to launch on Tuesday the 9th of April. In addition to this, Sun argued that his Tron-based version of the controversial stablecoin would allow for faster and cheaper transactions than that of the Bitcoin (BTC)-based Omni protocol USDT.
That’s not all, Sun also claimed that during Q2 of this year, Tron will also reveal “new network with a privacy option,” which is based upon the privacy-centric tech behind the altcoin Zcash (ZEC).
Two major crypto exchanges, one based in Singapore – Huobi Global and OKex based in Malta have already announced their support of the Tron-based version of Tether.
