JUST Foundation issued TRON protocol based Bitcoins, TRON Network’s flagship DeFi wing, and is the foundation’s second successful attempt of bringing major tokens on the TRC-20, the TRC-20 based USDT, which has surpassed 4 billion in supply. This has given more options for the TRON community at large and added diversity in the portfolio, enabling users to choose and trade tokens as per their convenience.
As part of the ongoing TRX-BTC LP, about 500 TRC-20 Bitcoins will be mined each day. In the Medium post, TRON Foundation also informed that renowned crypto exchange Poloniex will now accept TRC20-BTC swaps, and invited other significant exchanges to contact JUST for accepting the swap on their platforms. The TRC20-BTC swap contracts have been audited by SLOW MIST, a third-party code auditing firm.
