TRON vs Uniswap FAQ
- What is Tron?
- Tron (TRX) is a proof-of-stake blockchain launched in 2017 (mainnet 2018) focused on high-throughput token transfers and dApps. It uses Delegated Proof-of-Stake with 27 "Super Representatives" producing blocks — faster and cheaper than Ethereum but more centralised.
- Why is Tron so popular for USDT?
- Tron hosts the single largest supply of USDT because its fees are a fraction of a cent and transfers settle in seconds. This dominates remittance and P2P trading flows in emerging markets where USDT is the de-facto dollar.
- What is Uniswap?
- Uniswap is a decentralised exchange launched 2018 by Hayden Adams, pioneering the automated market maker (AMM) model. UNI is the governance token, airdropped to early users in September 2020. It gives holders voting power over the Uniswap DAO treasury and protocol parameters.
- Where does Uniswap run?
- Uniswap V3 and V4 are live on Ethereum mainnet and every major L2 (Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Polygon) plus several non-EVM chains via Uniswap X. V4 introduced "hooks" — customisable pool logic — enabling dynamic fees, on-chain limit orders, and MEV capture at the pool level.
