TRON founder Justin Sun has had his personal Weibo account shut down by Chinese authorities. This comes about a month after the official TRON account was banned, as BeInCrypto has previously reported. It appears that China will continue to promote blockchain but clamp down on actual cryptocurrencies.
The news came to Twitter via Dovey Wan (@DoveyWan), who announced that the account was offline and added that she was “not surprised,” as Sun has been very vocal about his company and the recent lunch he was supposed to have with Warren Buffet, though the meeting never took place. Click here to read the full newsOh well, here goes another Justin Sun news!After Weibo shuts down the official account of TRON, Justin Sun was their next victim after a month. China has been pro on the disruptive blockchain technology, but may never be in actual cryptocurrencies like TRON. For me, I think for sure that China would be “truly left behind” in the 4th industrial revolution if they do not start adopting or embracing Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. I can sense that within the next decade, we will be going cashless. However, China can ride the wave only in a centralized way. But decentralization is the future (especially for those who are unbanked), as people like us are seeking to take control on what we own rather than the central banks controlling it. For sure, China will suffer and regret in the future about not embracing Bitcoin, TRON and other cryptocurrencies in the market.

That's not 100% accurate, China is already like 70% Cashless, China isn't against the Blockchain industry, China i simply against anything that make it it unable to trace your transactions, that's all. It's already Big Brother i watching you since decades, they won't let it go for Blockchain or anything else, it is what it is.

Is this the facebook in China? Cause I overheard that they don't have a facebook in China, it's a different social media. Anyway, I don't really know the reason why China can't accept the fact that they have a lot of business-minded people and they're dumping them. Why don't just tax them? Get some revenues out of their own businesses? In that way, their country could have spare money for governments projects.

I still not totally sold though, I mean Justin Sun has so many aces up his sleeves, after all he is what we call a Shill God, lol. Because he really knows how to put some spin and drama so that he can stay relevant and of course to pump his Tron again. So I don't know, news coming from China are not to be trusted anyways.

Yes, I agree on this. They already have alipay and wechat pay which is already being used by most in China. I even saw a story that there's a beggar that asks for money and you know what? she wants people to send money over either of the two payment method. Weibo is like the facebook or one known website on China so that's why it's a big account loss for him. The gov't might just want to see him go quiet despite of the attention he's already getting.

Justin Sun’s Weibo Account Has Officially Been Shut Down
He posted that DigiByte block chain is a scam and delisted them from Poloniex. In his last speach president of China Xi Jinping was clear that calling a blockchain a scam is against Chinese regulations and laws. Justin Sun should know better then to oppose Mr. President. Noobs will be noobs. Long live the President Xi!!!

China was always against actual cryptocurrencies. It is promoting Blockchain because it wants to promote its own cryptocurrency to curb negative interest rates.
China is one of the most controlled governments in the world, why will it allow actual cryptocurrencies?

Perhaps Justin Sun is too comfortable with China just because he is already popular and he is Chinese. He must have forgotten the kind of government he has and he is in. He cannot feel comfortable while he is inside their territory. China is not joking against cryptocurrencies and other projects. They are letting them operate but they only need one false move and they are out. They need to be reminded that there is really no freedom in its real sense in China.

It just seems that China doesn't want any competition if they really planning to release their own crypto which is just rumour as of now or just don't want any decentralized platform or currency disrupt their economy. Considering that China is really strict in this kind of thing more specifically financial and economic things they have a big chance to take this action and maybe in the future we'll see more decentralized crypto being prohibited despite people could still illegally access it.

I believe major countries will be cashless in the next few decades including China. The Chinese government wants full control over its constituents that's why they keep on rejecting decentralized cryptocurrencies and create their own brands to be utilize by their people. I guess they will not be left behind in terms of this kind of changes it just happen that their government is hands-on every innovations that they are dealing with.

It's quite unfortunate that china has chosen to clamp down on cryptocurrency with so much pressure on both the projects and her founders. I'm not certain of what they want to achieve, but I know that the Chinese government must have a reason for such move. I do hope to find out more about the issue.

I won't be much concerned about this particular incident, but I am definitely bothered by the huge losses being accumulated by various TRX investors. This was a currency which had a market capitalization of around $15 billion two years back. Now this amount have been reduced to less than $1 billion. And rather than taking up the development tasks with TRX, Justin Sun is busy wasting his money on useless things (such as the well publicized $4.6 million lunch with cryptocurrency hater Warren Buffett).

This is a bit confusing I guess China will not lose that market easily, we know that Chinese exports are very high, even rumored to beat the USA and become No. 1. even if they don't want to adopt bitcoin and alt, they won't be immediately ignored due to many factors. but if it is decentralized and digital currency is developing in the future, they should reconsider adopting bitcoin.

Why do you think they suffer from that? They are doing what ever they want, anything decentralized enough don't fit in Chinese totaliarism while they want total control, and that's the only reason they want the blockchain based traceable currency, It has nothing to do what people or unbanked want. And any nation who truly understands permissionless decentralized currencies surely don't want to adopt them, as they (cryptocurrencies) are a threat to the very core of their old status quo.

Why does this come as a surprise?
The government over there has been quite consistent with their attitude towards crypto. Some mistook the message of Xi as a supportive one towards decentralization, but obviously they've got their own projects in mind from local developers or even a national crypto.
Weeding out these decentralized coins from the scene is just a part of the process. No surprises here.

I actually support these words where not only China but also other countries that do not adopt bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, I want to see in the next few years, if they come for bitcoin and others, I'm the one who will bully them, try if of course they dare to get out of the safe zone of course they will get full support from the crypto community in the world not only coming from their country, it's great for CEO Tron to continue to focus on developing his crypto, whoever part of crypto will get full support from the community even though his Weibo account is on shut down

I think shutdown the Weibo account owned by Tron and Justin Sun is just a small thing done by the Chinese authorities. We know Justin is an influencer who is quite well known in the crypto industry, but some of his statements and actions are often controversial and many people get lost and trapped by it.
Everyone knows that China is a big country and is very advanced in any field, in the case of crypto or blockchain China must have other plans to become winners and possibly become the center of crypto, just like now that almost controls the world economy.

Weibo is one of the largest social media platforms in China. Well, facebook was blocked in mainland China. And Weibo is like a twitter or facebook version from China, so yeah. I thought China has already adopted blockchain, so does that mean thay China's goverment only support their own cryptocurrency but not cryptocurrency in general? I guess what they want is something they could have full control over it. With the largest population in the entire world, China's eventually should embracing bitcoin and other cryptoccurency. How far will they go with this shutting-down, banning and all.

In China they have the Chinese version of everything the Westerners use as social media. Here is a useful guide: Top 10 Chinese Social Media: Table of Contents WeChat: Not Just the Chinese Facebook Sina Weibo: Twitter of China Tencent QQ: Popular Instant Messaging App Tencent Video: The King of Online Video in China Baidu Tieba: A Search Engine Forum Douban: Lifestyle Discussion Platform Zhihu: The Quora of China Meituan – Dianping: The Chinese Versions of Yelp Toutiao: The Hottest News & Information & Entertainment Platform DouYin (TikTok): The Short-video App Taking the World By Storm https://www.dragonsocial.net/blog/social-media-in-china/ I don't really know the reason why China can't accept the fact that they have a lot of business-minded people and they're dumping them. Why don't just tax them? Get some revenues out of their own businesses? In that way, their country could have spare money for governments projects.
You can't do business freely without any intervention of the Chinese government. Most people see China/Asia as a new opportunity to make huge money and most of them leave the country right after they start working there. Watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrzJcnK_c-4
