Why Tron's Sun Paid $4.57 Million Lunch?

[CryptoBry]

Justin Sun, the TRON & BitTorrent CEO, is on the news because of the huge amount of money he paid to have lunch opportunity with Warren Buffett. Because many are asking why he did it, here are the reasons behind such a move, according to an interview with CNBC.

3 reasons behind the bid:

1. Show of gratitude for Buffett’s inspiration
2. @GLIDEsf charity in San Francisco
3. Want to become bridge between institutional investors & crypto

Update: Justin Sun invites the founders of #Ethereum, #Litecoin, and #Binance to lunch with Warren Buffett.

So what do you think?

[bitcoin-shark]

first he did it to get media publicity , secondly to try together with the others to convince him to invest in the altcoins...

[JeffBrad12]

Or he was trying to give a massive advertisement to the tron platform. I thought that it's worth to pay millions dollars and then the whole of media around the world will try to make him as the main news and put his face in the various sites and not forget to mention
#tronplatform, right?

I just thought if this another kind of his effort to promote tron platform.

[mindrust]

Why did he pay for a lunch with the most successful stock trader and investor ever?

Because he can.

Mark my words now: If you had the power, you would do it too.

There are some things in life which you can't put a price tag on. This is one of them. In the end it still had a price but... not for everybody.

It is only justin sun that will make announcement of another announcement,  this is just for a publicity for his trons coin, he actually got a lot of attention from the crypto community due to this agreement.

[Simple_Plan]

I only know that TRX's price pumped insanely after Sun's lunch with Buffet. That tells everything. He's advertising his TRX. $4.57 million is a huge number to a normal person but it only costs him a fraction of his TRX.

[pynetx]

so that he can wear his tron branded t-shirt while having lunch and lure people to multiply the amount he used to buy that lunch.

3 reasons behind the bid:

I wanted to write 3 times "advertising", but here's a better list:

1. Because he can.
2. Because he wants advertising.
3. Because he hopes he can talk business too.

[Little_king]

Making such huge move is an exception for crypto space and I believe he did this to make name in crypto space and also to make buffett see hiw wonder the blockchain industry can transform the world .

Inviting other CEO of great coin is a great move but I think we have many other that can join that launch with those he invite in this crypto space.

Good luck to him and the member of the tron foundation for also contributing to the charity for helping others in need .

[Vinalians]

Popularity will also boost in his act. The TRON's popularity is now increasing and it will be more if he manages to convince Warren to like cryptocurrency by giving him the best speech about this altcoin (TRON), it can also be that he wanted to prove warren that cryptocurrency is not what he thinks and also it is for the modern people.
I think he can do it with the help of those people he invited.

Sometimes money changes people very quickly. As far as Sun comes from a wealthy family, but popularity is something new. Someone with a bad personality in Justin Sun.

Yes, Justin Sun is the founder of TRON, It's the world top 15 crypto network and web 4.0 blockchain dapp platform, $4.57 Millions paid for have a lunch with Warren Buffett, I think most of the people will said that too crazy and worth it? I think it's a good opportunity to advertise TRON platform, most important is Justin Sun have a lot of $4.57 Million

[z21770179]

I think he wants to advertise for his project. And that's what he's always been doing for the TRX project, it's simply giving up a lot of money that people think big. But for him, it helps a lot for TRON

[timmmers]

Everything what Justin Sun do is about marketing. Thanks to this he will became popular in medias. They will write about him. He only needs to bring attention to his glorious project Tron.

So what do you think?

The reasons are great for theory and for records. But I see it as a sweet revenge against Buffet because he is a known and probably the most influential crypto hater. With the additional invitees for the lunch from the crypto businesses, I am sure the revenge will look even more sweeter!

Sun should offer to pay the amount in cryptos only!

Why would he have to spend this huge amount for someone who is against Cryptocurrency, this is rubbish maybe he is thinking to convert Buffet to cryptocurrency, but I doubt if you can teach an old dog new tricks, after this dinner this old idiot will go back posting negative against cryptocurrency.

[siddartha1492]

Justin Sun is just trying to get a new achievement to his name, i.e. "Harbringer of Buffet to the Crypto World" (during a buffet)!! Jokes aside, he just wants more acceptance as a crypto influencer. Right now, well he is just known as a shiller. Pretty uncommon for founders of top crypto projects. So he wants to bring more seriousness to his image. And of course bring more publicity to Tron.

[el kaka22]

I guess it is a nice gesture considering warren buffet is the godfather of all great investors, dude is a saint and a god in investors world plus it goes to a charity not to him. He doesn't need money and he just uses this opportunity to get some charity money so we are talking about a lunch with Warren Buffet that also supports a charity as well which is win-win for Sun since he likes to donate as well.

Plus, we know Warren is not really interested in crypto but with this lunch and this much money Sun will have a chance to explain crypto a lot better to Buffet and show him why we like it, he may still dislike it as an investment option after this lunch but at least even if its a bad investment in his mind he will realize why we like it and why we use it since its a lot more honest and fair then banking system we have and we all know Buffet hates banks as well even though he invests in them.

[aioc]

I don't think he can change Buffet's position and turning him into a crypto believer, that's not going to happen he is wiser than Sun and more experienced and he will lose his reputation if suddenly he changes his position about Cryptocurrency and become its supporters, the old man is very rich you can't bribe him with that $4.5 million lunch.

[asbak66]

Cause he's attention seeker?
I don't get it why he pay for $4.5 million just only for dinner with Buffet.
Dos he think he can chenge buffet mind so easily? Buffet is a master and I don't think with only dinner he can do that. Just waste of money.
