TRON Founder Backs Trump’s vision for U.S.Blockchain Leadership
Justin Sun, teh founder of TRON, has shown his support for President Trump’s goal of making the U.S. a global leader in blockchain and cryptocurrency. Sun attended a private dinner for holders of Trump’s meme coin, expressing his belief that America can become “the hottest region for blockchain and crypto.”
He vowed to do everything in his power to help achieve this. Sun shared his thoughts on social media, highlighting the management’s recognition of the country’s potential in this field.
The dinner, held at Trump National Golf Club in virginia, hosted the top 220 investors of the TRUMP coin. Notable attendees included executives from major crypto firms like BitMart and wintermute.
However, the event has sparked controversy. Trump used a podium adorned with the presidential seal, raising questions about potential federal law violations. Legal experts cited Section 713 of Title 18 of the United States Code, wich prohibits unauthorized use of the presidential seal.
White House press Secretary Karoline Leavitt clarified that Trump attended in his personal capacity, not as part of an official government event. Yet, both Democrats and Republicans are concerned about the perceived conflict of interest.
Sun, who once faced legal scrutiny in the U.S., now owns $23 million in Trump’s memecoin. Some critics see this as hypocritical, given Trump’s past accusations against the Biden family over business dealings.
Zeteo News editor-in-chief Mehdi Hasan commented, “Nothing Hunter Biden did comes even close to this level of open corruption.”
