❔ Is There a Deployment of CreateX on TRON?

[sebastiantf]

Tron is EVM compatible, altho CREATE2 and the hex addresses might differ. Docs:

• https://developers.tron.network/v4.4.0/docs/vm-vs-evm
• https://developers.tron.network/v4.4.0/docs/account#address-format

Is there a deployment on Tron for CreateX contract?

[pcaversaccio]

It's not possible to deploy CreateX on Tron due to this:

• Contract address prefix created by CREATE2 is different from EVM: TVM chooses 0x41 as the prefix, the formula is keccak256( 0x41 ++ address ++ salt ++ keccak256(init_code))[12:]

If you deployed CreateX to Tron, all of the computeCreate2Address and computeCreate3Address functions would return wrong calculations (meaning that also the deployCreate3* functions would not work as expected, for example here).

[sebastiantf]

Yeah but still can have deterministic addresses on tron. Altho will be incompatible with any other evm chains. Guess its safer to not have a deployment there to avoid any confusions from assumptions?

Also wonder why they couldn't choose the same prefix as Ethereum

You can have deterministic addresses on TRON, just not via CreateX, which requires EVM equivalence for the contract code to function correctly.

Also wonder why they couldn't choose the same prefix as Ethereum

I don't know and to be fully honest, I also don't give a fuck about TRON 😄.
