Look at binance, dudes spent maybe 100 million dollars total on launchpad and for their BSC, if you spend 100 million dollars on a shitcoin, you will still get a top 50 coin for sure, it is just how the world works, it is both a bit of manipulation because binance supporting something means it goes up, but it shouldn't because binance "may" support something bad, but it is also support financially so it does actually turn out to be good too. At the end Tron is a shitty blockchain with Justin Sun doing nothing about it, hence it will stay there forever.
That's certainly true, mate. It's all about aggressively promoting your project in order to help it reach new heights. Binance has done its part in helping Binance Chain reaches the masses with an aggressive marketing/promotion strategy. If TRON wants to succeed, it's going to need to copy Binance's model. Otherwise, it'll slowly fade away as its competitors gain traction in the mainstream world.
Based on current price per coin, I'd say TRX is pretty cheap. You get blazing-fast transactions and ultra-low fees, at a much cheaper entry cost than Ethereum. I think TRON is even cheaper to use than Binance Chain these days. What the project needs is a solid ecosystem of dApps and services around it in order to challenge its competitors. Imagine how big TRON will become if developers started building serious dApps onto the platform itself. TRX might become the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap after Ethereum and Binance Chain (BNB). You'll never know when this will happen, so it's best to buy and "hodl" TRX while it's still cheap. If it goes to $1 in the future, you'll be able to reap large profits. But if it doesn't, you can still make money by participating in TRON's "De-Fi" ecosystem. Time will tell us whenever the TRON project will become a huge success or a failed experiment altogether. Just my thoughts
