User Info

  Justin Sun is the founder of Tron and CEO of BitTorrent. He has become quite possibly the most renowned figure in the blockchain space, known for his intricate advertising strategies. He is an ambassador, Permanent Representative of Grenada to the WTO, and a Geneva-based Chinese-Grenadian negotiator, business visionary, an business chief.    He holds a graduate degree in East Asia studies from the University of Pennsylvania and a B.A. in history from Peking University. He studied at Human University and turned into the cover figure of Yazhou Zhoukan in 2011 and Davos Global Youth Leaders in 2014. In 2015 he was named CNTV's most essential new business person and was named in Forbes China 30 Under 30 from 2015 through 2017.   He put the record-breaking $4.6 million bid to have a private lunch with Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett in June 2019, before dropping it to a far-reaching surprise. The lunch with Buffett ultimately happened in January 2020. On 11 March 2021, Sun was the underbidder on the notable $69M auction at Christie's New York of the Beeple non-fungible token (NFT) assortment Everyday: the First 5000 Days. In October 2021, Sun took part in a $65 million financing round in Animoca.   In December 2021, Sun declared he was the victor of the New Shepard closeout with a bid of $28 million to be the principal paying traveler to fly on the Blue Origin vehicle in July 2021. He couldn't fly on this July 2021 mission because of a booking struggle. Anyway, he bought (probably with the $28 million sale bid, which he paid to Blue Origin in 2021) secretly a full trip of New Shepard for him and expects to choose five different members to fly with him into space in late 2022. In December 2021, Justin Sun resigned as the CEO of TRON to turn into a negotiator for Grenada.
