For smart contracts, the cost for each contract call is very cheap when compared to Ethereum and <a href=\"https:\/\/tronstation.io\/calculator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">can be calculated beforehand<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, it would be a very good move to tokenize both Bitcoin and Ethereum on the Tron Network.
