Another major step made by TRON was its availability on CoinFlip. Being one of the most renowned digital currency ATMs that are used by investors and traders in a global-range, CoinFlip’s ATMs have been delivering various cryptos to users in many terminals. On 2nd of April, CoinFlip started supporting TRON along with its previously existing list of Litecoin, Ethereum, and Bitcoin. This phenomenon is likely to increase the accessibility of TRX to its users considerably, eventually increasing its circulation and popularity.

Tron already has decentralized apps on it platform as can be seen on the project’s website. The most notable is Peiwo which is an audio-based post-95s social software.

Additional trading against BTC lifts the share of Upbit above 50%.
