TRON Founder Justin Sun was attending the TWN2019 conference in Amsterdam on Friday, and was interviewed by Nodeunlock Founder Elliott Calendar on the topic: 'Justin Sun as a human'. During the interview, the TRON Founder was also asked about his controversiol Twitter marketing.
Sun is never shy of trying to pump the price of one of this projects, TRX or BTT, when he gets the chance. This has given him a very enthusiastic and hyped community, but also a very dubious reputation within the cryptocurrency space.
Asked about his marketing strategies, Sun claimed he was responsible for pushing the price of Bitcoin up following the Binance hack. After news got out that 7000 BTC was stolen from the exchange, the cryptocurrency market tanked, but a tweet of Sun saved the price. At least, that's what Sun said.
"I definitely know I have a great impact on the community and the cryptocurrency price", Sun said on the TNW stage. "When Binance got hacked the other day, the Bitcoin price dropped from $5900 to $5700. Then I posted a tweet in which I said that I would send $40 million (the amount that got stolen from Binance) in USDT to support Binance. And the price went back up right away", Sun said about the tweet in which he mentioned that he would buy BTC, BNB, TRX and BTT with that USDT once on the Binance exchange.
Asked about if it's right to speak out on crypto prices as an influential player in the space, something that would not be possible in a more regulated space, Sun said: "I genuinely wanted to help, because CZ (Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao) is my friend. I believe in him and I believe in Binance. I don't want people to lose confidence because only 2% of their total holdings got hacked."
Dubious Tesla giveaway
The conversation went on to other dubious tweets by Sun in the past, such as the Tesla debacle giveaway. Sun got accussed of rigging the giveaway because of a glitch in the 'random picker' video, in which the 'winner' was already revealed before the actual giveaway took place.
"I promised to give 1 Tesla, and at the end of the day I gave two", Sun responded to that. On the question if there was proof of that, the TRON Founder said: "We already gave the Tesla to the two winners
