Meanwhile, Tron just announced it will host a livestream called “A Call for Independence” to celebrate the occasion.

The team has also released a rundown on how the coming mainnet launch fits into Tron’s timeline, and exactly when TRX will no longer be an ERC20 token.

After the mainnet upgrade, Tron has promised its blockchain will be hundreds of times faster than Ethereum.

The company is making a big push to convince developers to create DApps on the new network, offering a virtual machine to port Ethereum projects over, as well as offering $100,000 loans to developers who use the Tron blockchain.

Tron also recently unveiled an updated roadmap outlining its post-mainnet launch plans.
