The cryptocurrency holdings of Sun Yuchen have been made public! He is suing Bloomberg: Will it cause irreparable harm?
In August 2025, a highly publicized legal battle erupted between the cryptocurrency world and traditional media giants. Sun Yuchen, the founder of TRON, a highly influential figure in the global cryptocurrency realm, has officially filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, suing the globally renowned financial media company Bloomberg. The core of the lawsuit targets Bloomberg's plan (and eventual decision) to publicly disclose his extremely confidential personal cryptocurrency holdings. Sun Yuchen's side believes this action not only seriously violates Bloomberg's previous commitment to 'strict confidentiality' but also places him and his family's safety at 'significant and irreparable' risk.
This case is not merely a legal dispute between a celebrity and the media; it is more like a magnifying glass that starkly presents the profound contradiction between the inherent 'transparency' of blockchain technology and the privacy of personal assets and personal safety to the public.
Absolute confidentiality According to the content of the complaint submitted to the court, the origin of this turmoil stems from an 'active invitation' from Bloomberg earlier this year. A Bloomberg reporter proactively approached Sun Yuchen's team, hoping to include him in the media's highly authoritative online 'Bloomberg Billionaires Index'.
