I totally agree with you, though not in terms of outdated but in terms of Justin sun promoting the coin hard back in the days but still, the coin ended up as a shitcoin, this is one thing with overhyped coins, they tend to grow or do well in the period they are being hyped, and the unsuspecting ones or those looking for quick profit will always buy into such hypes but as soon as reality hits, they all come crumbling on the floor, those who are lucky enough to get out of that market on time will always be happy and think themselves super wise, tron remains one coin I hated most and never bought even a single one of it, happy that people are beginning to see that the coin is just shit.
Yes, it is Justin Sun and his marketing how he was always promoting instead of getting an interesting product, like Ethereum developers have achieved.
I don't think Tron will ever get outdated, I agree that Justin Sun just shill openly but that's the trend in crypto. I am not supporting his shilling but sometimes it is necessary to keep standing in the market, especially in a bear market. Most of us use either XRP or TRX when we want to transact, it's literally no fees compared to what others ask. If we see some good developments or collaboration with real-world investors then we can surely say that TRX will be very good in the future.
Tron is already outdated, bro. Now, we have so many promising products and Tron will be abandoned step by step.
No one cares about Tron now. Back in 2017, when Justin Sun first created it, there was a lot of hype and it managed to achieve a capitalization of around $18 billion within a few months. But after that, everything went downhill for Tron, mostly because of the incompetence of Sun and the other developers. They were accused of plagiarism. And although it was originally designed to assist digital media sharing, TRX is hardly used for this purpose nowadays.
The fault lies with Sun himself. He received huge amount of funds from the ICO and the subsequent coin offerings. But rather than using these funds for further developing the coin, he wasted most of it on silly expenses. For example, this idiot spent $4.5 million for getting an opportunity to dine with one of the most rabid opponents of cryptocurrency (Warren Buffet). In the end, nature took its due course and took away money from those who didn't deserved it.
Some even say that Justin paid some celebrities to promote Tron. The hype that Tron created back then has been fade away because of poor management and strategy. Now Tron network is mostly used in gaming platforms and its smart contract is not that popular as other networks even it charges low cost than them. I think Justin could do better with Tron in the future.
Yes, Justin Sun is all in form marketing and I can believe you are right here. Justin Sun has really a very bad reputation.
