Tron is a profitable investment, if considered for the long term and it addresses the huge gas fees issue of Ethereum.
That was the reason why people adopt and use TRON in the meantime while the ETH gas fee is high.
TRON has already a good name in crypto, and many people believe in the capability and of course, the profitability of this project long-term. However, if we think that this can be the next Ethereum, that sounded off from happening. I'd see XRP before surpassing ETH as 2nd place but never I see TRON got it. It was indeed a good project to hold for long-term as the price is growing but this can be changed when the ETH gas fee is back to low again.
