Overview
The Tron Protocol aims to host entertainment applications and digital content on a decentralized platform fuelled by the TRX token economy. Developed originally on the Ethereum protocol, Tron has invested significant development effort to create their own, scalable protocol and launch their main net in June 2018.
Generic, open-source,  blockchain based distributed computing platform for applications to be built upon.
Modular Blockchain Platform, released by Hyperledger and championed by Intel.

Generic, with DApp and Smart Contract support for wider applications
Modular Architecture. Incorporates IoT Sensors that can broaden the use case.

Scalability
Currently supports 15 TPS as it is on the Ethereum platform. Will be able to support up to 1000 TPS once main net launches
limited by PoW

currently supports a maximum of 15 TPS
1000 TPS. Built to be scalable in the way that consensus algorithms can be changed, applications are separate from the core system, and transactions can occur in parallel.
