After some small delay, Tron Tokens are now live on SteemitsteemCreated with Sketch.

You can now earn Tron tokens in addition to Steem / Steem Power / and Steem-Backed-Dollars, for posting, commenting, and voting.

You will see something like this:

Although these do not directly increase your steem voting power, you may still wish to claim them to accrue over time so that you may trade them, or begin developing your power on the Tron blockchain without even trying.

In order to start claiming these, you will need to manually confirm that you have your Tron keys, even if you have autoclaim. This will be done by downloading the single-copy PDF provided when you attempt to claim them for the first time. After this, it is removed from the server and you must keep track of the keys in one form or another.

If you have an account attached to supreme-verdict and wish to ignore this, that's fine too, because the tokens will remain pending until it is done from either side. If you're using an account that you created, you will probably want to download the keys immediately after the next time you claim SP.

As an additional detail, setting posts to 100% powerup will give you double the amount of Tron tokens, as the TRX payouts are directly based on the amount of SP earned, rather than dollar value, and 100% powerup diverts all rShares from incoming votes directly into SP.

This is now the most efficient style of posting:
(which implies less Steem/SBD tokens in circulation)

. . .
however,
steem-backed-dollars are currently worth 3x more than USD.
If you wish to speculate that this will remain until 1-week (7 days) beyond your post/comment, you may wish to avoid 100% powerup. This should only be done if you are able to reach the previously mentioned market in time to sell into this above-peg value, or if this rather extreme ratio outweighs your interest in gaining double TRX.

If you currently have SBD in your wallet, now would be an above-average time to learn how to sell it. You can see more details about that - HERE


at time of writing, I am able to gain 100+ SP from ~5 SBD



edit: This new feature is a little glitchy. You may have trouble creating TRX wallet in certain browsers (infinite loading ring), and you may have trouble claiming any reward that was pending before it was created. Do not allow either of these things to drive you too far into insanity, but the second among these two problems implies it may be ideal to create the wallet sooner rather than later, depending on how it's resolved.

So what are tron tokens and why do I want them?

TRX are the tokens for another blockchain, deeper down the rabbit hole.
( or further out depending on how you think ^_~ )

It is often equated to ethereum, for being a kind of a decentralized operating system hosting and processing smart contracts and attempting a branching ecosystem of decentralized applications which share the same chain.

However, the most simple answer is that it is another form of cryptocurrency which you may eventually trade/sell supposing it lacks any utility for whatever you're doing at the time. In the last 24 hours, TRX has had about $850,000,000 in trading volume on listed exchanges alone.

Okay, thank you. I just did my tron transactions and I guess I'll just continue to watch my crypto currencies grow

Yay just when I thought I'd figured out all of steemits nonsense lol.

I sold some this morning..

I still don't understand Steemit, I'm just here for the chess forum.
