The decentralized finance (DeFi) sector is rapidly growing but still faces significant challenges. For example, one of the biggest issues DeFi must address is Impermanent Loss (IL).

TRON TVL Hits $11B Amid Preparations for BitTorrent’s Launch
The TRON (TRX) DeFi ecosystem counts another milestone in terms of total value locked (TVL). Justin Sun, its founder, made an official announcement on Twitter that TRON’s TVL has surpassed $11 Billion.
In an open letter he wrote on September 4, he mentioned how proud he was of TRON. He also acknowledged the growth that the project has seen since its launch in 2018.
TRON Evidently Grows
Recently, TRON has hit the $11 Billion mark because of the general positivity and optimism surrounding the project.
The blockchain can handle up to five times the daily transfer volume of PayPal. Through this, it demonstrated great potential in becoming a future worldwide settlement layer.
Recently, TRON and BitTorrent also came together to develop a project that will launch on October 30. The project, BitTorrent Chain (BTTC), will be the first scalable heterogeneous cross-chain interoperability in the blockchain network.
In the open letter by Sun, he detailed what BTTC means for TRON. TRON created the project to power an era of interconnected chains. It will act as a Layer 2 scaling solution. It means that it will tackle TRON’s NFT, Dapp cross-chain, and DeFi issues.
Over the launch, TRON will form a closed loop of layer one and layer two networks with a strong connection. With this, users will transfer assets seamlessly with the advantages of low fees and low latency. In the long run, the project will bring in more public chains to establish a connection.
That’s not all. BTTC is also compatible with Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). Users can easily migrate the apps based on Ethereum Network onto BTTC for superior scalability.
