At 35, he holds a fortune of 43 billion, building a business empire in the chaotic crypto sphere. How many unknown operational secrets are hidden in Sun Yuchen's story?
This young man, a graduate of Peking University’s history department, made his first pot of gold while studying at the University of Pennsylvania by investing in Tesla and Bitcoin. But who would have thought that when the Bitcoin bear market arrived, he would turn around and acquire the social software "Accompany Me" to profit from gray area services to survive?
The key leap in 2017 was even more insane: on the eve of the domestic suspension of token financing, he accelerated the issuance of TRON (TRX) and raised 70 million dollars overseas. In the face of scandals involving white paper plagiarism and code reuse, why did he dare to bet on "breaking through the traffic barrier" when TRON plummeted?
Acquiring BitTorrent for 140 million dollars, spending 4.56 million dollars to win a lunch with Buffett, and even high-profile helping OFO users get their deposits back — can these seemingly absurd operations really support a crypto empire?
When the NFT concept heated up, he spent tens of millions to purchase virtual avatars; when regulations tightened, he became the WTO ambassador for Grenada; when Trump coins became popular, he invested 75 million dollars; now he has even poured 28 million into space — is this way of dancing on the wind purely luck or is it a carefully laid plan?
With the TRON public chain, TRX tokens, USDD stablecoins, and two major exchanges forming a closed loop, he earns 2 million dollars in transaction fees every day. But can such a capital game of borrowing virtual currencies to take control of a NASDAQ-listed company with 100 million dollars really last?
From the constantly controversial entrepreneurial youth to a crypto tycoon worth 10 billion, Sun Yuchen's story continues. But when will this empire myth built on traffic and capital face its true test?
