A Crypto Pioneer To Have A $4.6-Million Lunch With Warren Buffett

Justin Sun is a celebrity in the digital money community, who has founded the crypto platform TRON and is the CEO of BitTorrent. According to a recent announcement, he disclosed that he's about to spend a whopping $4.6 million to have lunch with the legendary investor Warren Buffett. While Buffet is an outstanding of traditional investing, the young guy is on behalf of new-era investors.

As we know, Buffett is often considered as a Bitcoin skeptic because of several speeches against not only Bitcoin but also other digital tokens. Back in February when he had an interview with CNBC in the "Squawk Box" show, the multi-billionaire also showed his opposed opinion to criticize the idea of cryptocurrency. One of the main reasons is that a digital currency like Bitcoin simply doesn't have a unique value at all. Buffett had also called bitcoin, "rat poison squared," a "mirage" and "not a currency."

Sun, meanwhile, is expecting to change the mindset of Buffett about cryptocurrencies as well as support for his community. To date, Buffet once said about the technology behind a cryptocurrency, even said he saw potential in the blockchain. Thanks to this, Sun may have a chance to make clear about the world's hottest investment trend to Buffet.

The announcement of this winning bid has however garnered a lot of arguable comments across the digital money community.
