Tron is a public, programmable layer 1 blockchain, known for very low transaction fees and high execution capacity. The network relies on a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) mechanism where 27 validators (Super Representatives) take turns every 6 hours to validate blocks and transactions. The blockchain is based on the TRON Virtual Machine (TVM) for the creation and execution of smart contracts and uses the Solidity programming language, making it compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM-compatible).
