How to use TRON with Ledger

What is TRON?

Tron is a public blockchain network that aims to become the core infrastructure for a decentralized internet. The main focus of Tron is to be suitable for daily use. Thus, it has been built to enable fast, easy, and low-cost transactions. Tron uses a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism to maintain the network's security and provide high transaction throughput and low fees.

Tronix or TRX is the native cryptocurrency of the Tron blockchain. The smallest fraction of TRX is known as SUN, named after Tron's creator, Justin Sun. TRX is used to pay for gas fees on the network and can be staked by token holders to participate in the Delegated Proof of Stake consensus process. Additionally, miners can earn TRX by providing data storage space to Tron's users.

As a blockchain network, Tron allows the development of smart contracts and decentralized applications. Tron Virtual Machine (TVM) enables Ethereum EVM-based smart contracts to be compatible and deployable on the TRON network as such Solidity developers do not have to rewrite their applications.

Since TRON protocol does not rely on proof of work or mining, instead governed by nodes located around the world, it is decentralized while providing high throughput for transactions on the blockchain. This is suitable for dapps that require high speed transactions.

Frequently Asked Questions

When you first buy coin, you’re issued with two keys: public and private.

  • A public key serves as an address that can be shared with other parties to perform transactions.
  • A private key represents a randomly generated number that signs transactions and protects your assets from malicious attacks. If it gets compromised or lost, you won’t be able to access your crypto wallet to spend, withdraw, or transfer your coins.

To safeguard and keep track of your keys, you can use online or offline wallets. Online wallets, also known as hot wallets, store private keys on systems or devices that are connected to the internet. Hot wallets are easy and convenient to use, however, they come with several drawbacks. Besides being susceptible to attacks and a honeypot for hackers, with hot wallets, the custody of private keys is often entrusted to a third party such as a crypto exchange, which means you never have full control over your funds. The safer choice are specialized hardware wallets that store private keys offline. Stealing private keys from a hardware wallet would require physical access to the wallet and corresponding PIN or the recovery phrase. What’s more, with hardware wallet, you don’t need to rely on third party custodians.

Ledger Nano is the industry-leading hardware wallet. With more than five million customers, Ledger Nano wallets have several layers of security that protect private keys, and hence your assets:

  • Your private keys are stored on secure element chips.
  • A PIN code and a 24-word recovery phrase are required to access the wallet.
  • Ledger Nano cryptocurrency wallets have been built using highly durable materials for protection against physical damage.

With full isolation between private keys and your computer/mobile, Ledger Nano cryptocurrency wallets keep your keys secure and give you complete control over your assets.
