"Fake the KYC" hehe. That could could be troublesome if they encounter future investigations.

@Dave1. I am not certain if everything is real in this article too, however, why would the Verge publish such an article if the story in there is fake. It will give them a problematic lawsuit from Justin Sun and his lawyers. Is this a parody article and the Verge assumed that the readers will also assume it as a parody?

He and his lawyers can try. Media organizations tend to get away or win libel cases filed against them when they make statements in third person like "according to..... ". I believe they are also protected not to reveal their sources.

Everybody appreciates a good underdog tale, and Justin Sun is one of the best. Justin Sun has made a name for himself on the strength of his own dreams and wits. Of course, he did not accomplish this without making a few enemies in the process. However, I believe that the majority of people understand Justin Sun's story, and everyone should wish him success in all of his endeavors. I admire Sun and everything he has accomplished, and I hope he continues to do so.

Justin as an underdog? What are you on mate? He started off his project with plagiarism and you call that "wits"? Maybe you've drunk too much of Sun's Kool-aid.

No God or Kings, only BITCOIN.

I yet to read the article but everyone can take a propaganda to a person these days, but I could be wrong as well. I wonder why he stepped down from being Tron CEO and that isn't explain everything to why he chose another role as an ambassador. Can't say for sure but is he one of the best con in the crypto space we've seen?

Justin Sun reportedly got out because he was trying to overtake once again. Dude is one of the weirdest characters in the crypto space. But when you take some nerdy kid who had basically nothing (I mean not nothing, but nothing close to his wealth now) and make him rich, you get even weirder people. Tell me Elon Musk doesn't seem weird to you, he is the weirdest person I have ever seen, all his speeches, all his moves, all his facial reactions, they are all weird and to be fair even a bit annoying. Same goes for Mark Zuckerberg as well, and even Jeff Bezos too.

The only "normal" wealthy person I know is warren buffet, and he made it via stocks, a very boring thing. So all in all I would have to say that Justin being weird is not unexpected.

I used to like Justin Sun more in the earlier days of Tron launch but things changed when he started handling Tron TRC20 as a centralised project, I expected more from Tron because Justin and CZ are like a father and son I guess I was wrong, anyways I wish all the best.

The part of the article where the people surrounding Sun have lost track of what is right or wrong has made me concerned about the other things that we don't know yet. If he can go and do something like that, what else is he hiding? The man is good at being hyped and being talked about, and he is still having fun, and I probably think he would be caught into something. Of all the things he allegedly did, it would eventually go there if it was true.

I hope that Netflix or any documentary producer would focus on Sun's life story and let people see and understand who he is and see if he is right or wrong. It would probably be interesting.

I don't think it there is some semblance of truth in this story or not, or probably just a click-bait article. Anyhow, we've seen Justin pulling stunts after stunts in the crypto space, the Warren B. dinner, his supposedly quarrel with CZ and others. I don't know where they got the monicker "shill God", but most of the time I hear this describing Justin. So who knows, maybe this is real because of his personality, Lol.

I reckon Justin Sun's story in the cryptospace deserves to be recreated into a tv series or a Netflix series hehe. This is a very long article where the truth would appear to be a comedy because everything you read is unbelievable. However, if everything is 100% true, I respect Justin Sun's work. He is one of the best scammers in the cryptospace hehehehe.

Justin Sun might do the same tactic that CZ did on Forbes and also buy shares of the Verge hehe.

BitTorrent’s C-suite executives, just in from San Francisco, were ferried from Hotel Shangri-La in Beijing to a coworking space and led into a glass-enclosed conference room. Sun took the head of the table and read a typed speech, calling himself “Chairman Mao,” telling the C-suite executives they were “his generals” and that, together, they would massacre their competition. “People were feeling uncomfortable and incredulous at the euphemisms and metaphors,” a person who was present said. When Sun finished, BitTorrent’s CEO made a key observation: “Weren’t all of Mao’s generals killed?” To which Sun supposedly confirmed, “Yes, yes.”

Also, this is funny hehe.

Everywhere else at Poloniex, token listing requirement approvals slackened — a return to “YOLO Polo,” as one employee described it. Sun also began impatiently bulldozing Poloniex’s KYC rules, which were slowing Poloniex’s user adoption in China to a crawl. A former employee said the logjam enraged Sun. “Fake the KYC!” he screamed at one meeting. “Fake it!”
