Tronscan provides a way for Super Representatives to publish their information right where the voters are, on Tronscan!

Super Representatives can use this template to build a static page which will be shown on Tronscan. The link will be placed in the voting overview page right next to the name of SR.

The Super Representatives can manage their content by editing files in the Github repository.

This guide assumes that you already have an account with Super Representative (candidate) status.

Voting

Every account in TRON’s network can vote for the Super Representatives they support. Voting requires TRON Power (TP), 1 TP = 1 staked TRX.

Users can use Tronscan or Tronlink to stake, vote or obtain reward.

e.g.

freezebalance password 10,000,000 3    // 10 TP for 10 staked TRX
votewitness password witness1 4 witness2 6    //4 votes for witness1 and 6 votes for witness2
votewitness password witness1 3 witness2 7    // 3 votes for witness1 and 7 votes for witness2

The final result of the above commands is three votes for witness1 and seven votes for witness2.

stake/Unstake Balance

Why are Tokens staked?

The balance stake mechanism is set up out of two considerations:

To prevent malicious spam transactions from clogging the network and causing delayed transaction confirmation.
To prevent malicious voting.

Stake/Unstake Mechanism

Once the balance is staked, the user will receive a proportionate amount of TP and bandwidth. TP represents voting power, whereas bandwidth points are used to pay for transactions.

Staked assets are held in your stake account and cannot be used for trading.

The fixed stake duration is three days, after which you can unstake your balance any time you like manually. Balance unstaked will be transferred back into your current account.

The stake command is as follows:

freezebalance password amount time
amount: the unit of stake balance is Sun. The minimum stake balance is 1,000,000 Sun or 1 TRX.
time: stake duration lasting from date of stake and date to unstake is three days.

e.g.

freezebalance password 10_000_000 3
Unstake command:

unfreezebalance password
