The decentralized blogging and social media platform, Steemit, forged a strategic partnership with the foundation TRON and will migrate its services on its blockchain.

The TRON foundation announced to collaborate with the development teams of Steemit in order to transfer its platform and other DApps based on its blockchain on the network TRON.

The old native token of the platform, the Steem (STEEM), will be replaced by a new token built on the blockchain TRON.

We are happy to welcome Steemit in the ecosystem TRON. Together, we will create a new era of decentralized social networking, ”said Justin Sun, founder of TRON, in a statement.

Founded in 2016 by Ned scott and Dan Larimer (creator of EOS), Steemit is a social media platform based on the blockchain on which users can create content and be rewarded with digital tokens (Steem).

Since its creation, I have enjoyed working on the development of the platform. Now, I'm thrilled to see a partner trying to take him to new heights, "said Ned Scott.

Last month, the blockchain live video broadcasting platform, DLive, merged with the software BitTorrent, acquired by TRON in the summer of 2018, and will also move to the TRON blockchain.
