• A TRON developer has proposed energy efficiency improvements for TVM opcodes, specifically targeting SUICIDE and VOTEWITNESS.

  • The proposal aims to prevent issues like unfair resource modeling and DDoS attacks by adjusting opcode energy consumption.

  • Despite potential backward compatibility concerns, the proposal is favored for its overall benefits to TRON’s protocol and TVM efficiency.

In a significant move towards optimizing energy consumption, a TRON community developer has proposed adjustments to the energy efficiency of TVM (TRON Virtual Machine) opcodes. The proposal has been detailed in TIP-653 and shared via TRON’s official Twitter account.

Objectives of TRON’s Initiative 

TRON’s initiative targets two specific opcodes: SUICIDE and VOTEWITNESS. The current energy consumption for these operations does not accurately reflect their true resource usage

According to experts, this can potentially lead to issues such as unfair resource modeling and susceptibility to DDoS attacks. However, they believe the project will continue upgrading as the crypto market evolves.

To initiate the voting request for implementing this energy adjustment in TVM, developers can use the command `CreateProposal 81 1`. This process underscores TRON’s commitment to a democratic and community-driven approach to protocol enhancements.

However, it’s important to note that such adjustments may have backward compatibility implications. Contracts that rely on fixed energy costs could be affected by these changes. 

Despite this, the proposal advocates for the adjustments, citing that the affected opcodes are used in a limited number of contract types. Moreover, the overall benefits to both the protocol and TVM are deemed to outweigh any potential disruptions.

By continually seeking improvements in efficiency and security, TRON solidifies its position as a forward-thinking player in the blockchain space. While TRON is performing well, this latest development will position it for more growth.
