Anyone seen Justin's tweet, Lol, I mean no offense to him, but this is very clearly just a marketing ploy on is end. We all know how Justin Sun is a 'shilling god' for f**k's sake, but this is too much. How can he take advantage of the situation and posted this kind of tweet?

Another one marketing tweet from him as usual. He likes to do that

[NeuroticFish]

A bit vague about what they'll actually do, too focused on shilling Tron, quite late. And by this I mean that CZ/Binance did it much faster, better and clearer.

[Javi_Anibarro]

If you think it is bad enough, then what do you think about doing marketing when someone passed away?



Justin did that when we heard a news about the crash that happened with Kobe Bryant, look at the picture above. He has no shame, he will do everything for his own sake.
It might be good for visibility, but seriously. Do we need to go that far in order to promote our project?

Is he really taking an advantage, though? I mean, on one hand, yeah this could be a PR stunt 'cause he could've made an anonymous donation or something else without using the name TRON. Plus, we all know Justin is well known for being a genius when it comes to marketing.

On the other hand, what if the guy simply wans to help? I bet 90% of those attacking him for doing this haven't donated a single cent :/

Btw, Binance’s CZ also donated money a few days ago, is he also taking advantage of the situation to promote his exchange?

Both CZ and Justin are taking the advantage. In other thread about CZ donation, I had mentioned the same- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5221407.msg53731268#msg53731268
I think this is a common practice, most of the company takes the opportunity of a trendy issue all the time. It's not that CZ or Justin have done. In real life, a lot of busineses do this practice. Social responsibility is something a part of any business but this too is a big marketing at the end.

[sorrros]

Every his move is a marketing strategy and it works! Justin is not the only one person who takes the opportunity to become visible. Binance more than once helped within voluntary donations.

People's perspective can't be easily changed particularly on somebody who exploits each circumstance, but isn't it helpful? especially realizing that numerous individuals have been enduring a direct result of the infection that gives huge negative effect on their well-being. Why not see the positive side? it will be valuable and accommodating for individuals who are in need. Perhaps it's an incorrect method for helping because he's simply attempting to promote his exchange yet at the same time he was able to do his part in spite of the criticism that he's getting. It will be much better if he doesn't ask anything in return because that is the genuine meaning behind helping.

Atleast he is doing something. What about those who wrote negative comments here, what have you done for those people in China?

I am sure some of you would be very eager to know what I did? I am fighting against those medical bills that are being generated by American companies on social media who are taking advantage of this situation.

[Coyster]

If he's contributing or donating to assist those who have been hit by this virus, then don't you think he's not doing anything wrong, even if he's doing a veil and subtle marketing through that process. It not really ethical to advertise with something as serious as this, but the help rendered is enough to overshadow that.

Popular people cannot really do something and it'll go unnoticed, even if it wasn't intended, maybe sun actually didn't have any intentions to market his coin, or maybe he did.

[knuckey]

I think that both Justin Sun and CZ have done a good thing in the assistance or donations they have given and their actions can trigger others to do the same. But it will have a good impact for both of them, because it will indirectly attract the attention of the public to find out who they are and will freely promote their business.

Apart from that, it is natural that they provide assistance, because their business is both based in Asia and has many users in the region. If we hate someone, then whatever they will do will always be wrong in our eyes, therefore we must always be positive thinking to anyone.

It's normal to have his foundation and name attached to the aide that he'll send there. We know the style of Justin and likewise, CZ also helped already not just with the coronavirus but with Australia's bush fire too.

Let's look at the positive side of his help.

i agree with your point of view. even if they are using the situation to further their agenda, lets just thank them for their contribution. at least they are helping people on their own way. people who happen to hold TRON know exactly whats in it for them. so long they are helping and giving their share to the public, i dont see anything wrong about it. lets use the power of crypto to help someone in need.

[btc_angela]

Btw, Binance’s CZ also donated money a few days ago, is he also taking advantage of the situation to promote his exchange?

But Binance did it quietly though, without and @NeuroticFish have said, much clearer.

As compare to Justin with his picture with mask on taking a selfie? He can simply says that he is also going to donate and help without that image of his plastering all over. On the serious note, there have been reports that in our country that the virus is already here and it's a bit scary.

There's a positive and negative impact of showing that, he is showing that Tron is a caring company, on the other hand, he is taking advantage of the opportunity by promoting his coin, but many companies are doing this helping people in a time of disaster and at the same time promoting their company or projects.

It really depends on how someone will look at it.

(1) If this is a marketing stunt on Justin's part, then too bad
(2) If this is a genuine gesture on his part to really help the Chinese government then good for him

So yeah, it's two-fold, really up to the eyes of the people here. Someone could see it as a pr stunt and shun away because of Justin's personality. Personally, good move in his part.

[Bohr256]

Let's be honest here, he's a weasel. I wouldn't trust him with my garbage.

It's both a marketing stunt and goodwill it's kinda two birds with one stone there are people who critisize him, he should have sent funds and don't mention Tron, there is a time to market your project and there are time to genuine in giving this one is definitely a marketing stunt and people are noticing it.

[isaac_clarke22]

It could be just a bad thing in my perspective if there was no support that happened.
It seems like it could go either way, bad or good.
I even remembered those opportunist that made Kobe Bryant's merchandise price higher due to expected high demand. It could've gone good if it was donated to his family.

[minairia3]

I dont get shocked seeing this move by Justin Sun as he completely seize all the opportunity for his tron project to enter any scene. Wuhan China is infected by now hopefully Justin doesn't do it for show but really go there and take action.

Binance move on Corona Virus was shown in some articles this news is spotted on his tweet. Meaning more people are interested on Binance action than this show off stunt made by Tron.  Totally dupe!
