Fork TRON into Custom Chain

Job ID: 40572676

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I need an engineer who can take the current TRON code-base and fork it into a clean, standalone network that runs on just three validator nodes, using Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) as its consensus. The goal is to have a lightweight but fully functional chain that preserves TRON’s performance advantages while letting me control every aspect of the environment.

Key capabilities I want built in from day one are smart-contract execution (Solidity-compatible), on-chain token creation/management, and a governance layer so stakeholders can vote on upgrades or parameter changes. I do not have a rigid block-time requirement; please recommend the most practical interval for a three-node DPoS setup and be ready to justify the choice from a throughput and finality standpoint.

I expect the work to cover:
• Forking the TRON repo and adjusting chain-id, genesis parameters, and configuration for three super representatives.
• Deploying and hardening the three nodes (Ubuntu servers) with full monitoring, auto-restart, and secure key management.
• Verifying that smart contracts compile and deploy without modification.
• Demonstrating token issuance and a sample governance vote on the new chain.
• Delivering clear documentation so another engineer can reproduce the environment on fresh machines.

Provide a rough milestone plan, indicate the toolchain you prefer (Java, gRPC, Docker, Kubernetes, Ansible, etc.), and flag any licensing considerations we should keep in mind. I’m ready to start as soon as I see a concise proposal that shows you have already performed similar forks or core-chain modifications.
