UC Browser vs. Google Chrome – Best Design, Features and Compatibility

If we were to ask Internet users from Europe and the US which is their favorite browser, many would say that Chrome suits all their needs. However, Asian countries seem to be keener on the UC Browser, because it is their first choice when it comes to search software.

The comparison between them would highlight Chrome’s advantages over the UC Browser. The latter seems old-fashioned, but it’s rapidly catching up, as many other Asian releases seen nowadays. In order to form an opinion, let’s analyse the differences and similarities between the two browsers.

Design

In terms of design, we notice that Google Chrome is more developed than the UC Browser. This performance is due to the fact that, since it has been used for a longer time, Chrome has had more time to work on its design and other features.

Features

Speaking of features, we should mention that these browsers have equal specifications, but this doesn’t mean that they are identical. Although they balance each other, the UC Brower has a very useful page loading and media downloading system which performs every process with amazing speed.

Compatibility

Thanks to its versatility and adaptability, Google Chrome rules the compatibility area. Its main gain is given by the possibility of being used on any type of device (mobile, tablet, laptop or PC). Meanwhile, the UC Browser is only available for mobiles and this can be inconvenient for computer users.

With all things considered, Google Chrome seems to be leading the chart. However, the future might hold some surprises, because there are many possible ways to improve the UC Browser. Its incredible speed is a first step in the right direction, but, most likely, other amazing features will come as soon as it becomes popular in more parts of the world.

TRON Locks 33.25 Billion Tokens Until 2020

The TRON Foundation launched its own mainnet on June 25, but no one knew what it was going to be used for. Fortunately, we don’t have to speculate anymore since the TRON Foundation made a shocking announcement today! The company let everyone know that it locked up more than 33.25 billion tokens in 1,000 addresses which are located on the TRON mainnet.

TRON Locks 33.25 Billion Tokens

The company announced that more than 33.25 billion tokens are going to stay hidden away in 1,000 addresses until January 1, 2020. The reason why the TRON Foundation is doing this is quite simple, the company wishes to reduce the token availability.

There were 100 billion of tokens when TRON launched and one billion got burned right after the mainnet arrived. Justin Sun who is the founder of TRON announced that he felt “distressed to witness the burn of $50 million worth of tokens, the TRON Foundation had no turning back for the better development of TRON community”.

Developing a Query Tool

We should mention that out of the original 100 billion tokens, there are only 65.75 million in circulation while 33.25 billion are going to stay locked away. Nonetheless, the developers of TRON announced that they are currently working on a query tool which TRON investors can use in order to check the 1,000 mainnet addresses where the 33.25 billion tokens are locked away.

“In order to let Tronics search these addresses more conveniently, we are also making the query tool for these addresses. Thanks for your support to TRON, TRON and TIG will keep the TRX safe and build a free, decentralized economy” said the developers.

From the looks of it, the TRON Foundation was inspired by Ripple, the parent company of XRP which holds more than $55 billion worth of tokens in a secure escrow account.
