Inconsistent foundation date

The established/founded dates are confusing. The article starts with:

> It was established in March 2014 by Justin Sun

And later in the History section we see:

> TRON was founded by Justin Sun in 2017.

I believe 2017 is the correct date. Roman.kashitsyn (talk) 09:42, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Inconsistent architecture section

The second paragraph states:

> The network has zero transaction fees and conducts approximately 2,000 transactions per second.

First, the linked source page (https://web.archive.org/web/20201124011525/https://developers.tron.network/docs/vm-introduction) doesn't contain any information about fees or transaction rates.

Even worse, the very next sentence claims:

> The implementations of TRON require minimal transaction fees in order to prevent malicious users from performing DDoS attacks for free.

Which contradicts the previous sentence. I suggest removing the first claim about the fees and transaction rates. Roman.kashitsyn (talk) 09:48, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

apparently they have an anthem or theme song now

TRON 'History' Section Update

Need an update for the history section: On October 31st, Tron DAO confirmed that it will discontinue support of WinkLink, its previous oracle provider. Tron’s decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem will move to Chainlink Data Feeds for its pricing data.

cited by "https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/news/tron-replaces-oracle-provider-with-chainlink/ar-AA1tfUOK?ocid=finance-verthp-feeds&apiversion=v2&noservercache=1&domshim=1&renderwebcomponents=1&wcseo=1&batchservertelemetry=1&noservertelemetry=1" Shimakazego1998 (talk) 20:21, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That source is republished by MSN from CoinTelegraph, which is not a reliable source. The article doesn't currently mention WinkLink, so adding this detail would be more confusing than helpful to readers. If this detail is encyclopedically significant to the cryptocurrency, please propose a reliable source to explain why it is significant. Grayfell (talk) 20:29, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
