Justin Sun accused Vitalik Buterin of sponsoring Twitter trolls after being accused of an internal fraud
The drama never stops for Justin Sun, founder of Tron. Recently, after announcing that lunch had finally come true with billionaire Warren Buffett, Sun has accused Ethereum co-founder, Vitalik Buterin, and ConsenSys about hiring people to mess around on Twitter bad for other cryptocurrency projects.
Sun raised the trigger with Vitalik Buterin
Sun joined Block.One Brendan Blumer and announced that the Tron Foundation would never do the same thing. It seems that Tron’s standing on par with Ethereum in the blockchain smart contract battle has made Sun confident enough to fight Buterin.
Agree! @Tronfoundation will never hire community members to attack other friendly crypto projects. We should love and support each other! Shame on you @gitcoin @Consensys @VitalikButerin . https://t.co/glTmjCd2ZH

Buterin recently did not mind speaking out in debates. He argued that the Tron Project’s internal fraud was the reason why they could not hire the best research and development talent.
Interesting. I would rate internal pressure more highly, eg. I’d claim Tron’s scamminess is a huge factor limiting their ability to get top quality R&D talent.

Tron is undoubtedly one of the most controversial projects in the cryptocurrency market. In addition to the giveawayTesla notices only in dreams, Tron – Justin Sun is also known for plagiarism allegations. And it was Buterin himself who accused Tron of copying the whitepaper of Ethereum. This is also something that Sun vehemently denies ever.
Our original version of the whitepaper is in Chinese and we have a very detailed reference to the latest Chinese version. The English, Korea, Japanese and Spanish versions are translated by the volunteers. The translation missed numerous important details not just reference.

After Buterin’s tweet, Bitcoiner Udi Wertheimer came to protect Tron. He wrote that there was nothing deceptive about the project and described Sun as an entrepreneur who continued to make big moves.
Seems to me @Tronfoundation could just buy @Consensys and replace eth2.0 with TRON. Can’t be the only person to think that.

Meanwhile, Blockstream CEO Adam Back even suggested that the Tron Foundation is likely to buy ConsenSys and replace ETH 2.0 with Tron.
