Tron virtual machine (TVM) is here  

After mainnet launch, another big day for the Tron community is here with TVM launch. Built by Tron foundation with the aim to make its ecosystem bigger and better, this will be an upgraded version of TVM. As defined by the Tron Foundation on its official blog,

a Virtual Machine, “is an operating system (OS) or application environment that emulates a computer system (dedicated hardware).”

Tron Virtual Machine is compatible with the VM of Ethereum that will allow Ethereum developers to compile and adjust their existing codes so that smart contracts in Ethereum can be ported to Tron easily.

After DApps testing, they will be uploaded to Tron Mainnet and run on its SR nodes’ TVM so that public can access it. Tron is also planning to make it compatible with other VMs like EOS as well.

One of the most important features of TVM is that it will use bandwidth, unlike EVM that depends on gas. This means transaction and smart contract operation are free on Tron platform. It will also offer “much larger flexibility” to developers while solving the shortcomings of other systems that will ‘attract a lot of developers into TRON”.
