Billionaire founder hoping for a Trump pardon sets sights on space
Billionaire founder hoping for a Trump pardon sets sights on space originally appeared on TheStreet.
Justin Sun, the billionaire founder of the crypto firm Tron Inc. (Nasdaq: TRON), recently made a spaceflight aboard the Blue Origin, the Jeff Bezos-owned aerospace company.
"A childhood dream from thirty years ago has finally come true," Sun wrote on X on Aug. 4.
The crypto entrepreneur's spaceflight is among the most spectacular phenomena in the tech world, as it marks a unique intersection of crypto, fintech, and the space race.
Naturally, the crypto community was piqued as to who else from the industry will board the spaceflight next. When an X user asked if Changpeng "CZ" Zhao, the billionaire founder of the Binance crypto exchange, will be the one, CZ said he might try but only after Elon Musk.
"I am not an early adopter in this area," CZ remarked.
Founded in 2017, Binance has been the world's largest crypto exchange by trading volume for years now. Notably, the exchange invested $500 million in Musk's acquisition of Twitter, later rebranded to X, in October 2022.

Musk, the world's wealthiest man, is the leading tech mogul who leads companies like the space tech firm SpaceX, the electric car maker Tesla (Nasdaq: TSLA), and the social media platform X.
While SpaceX sends human spaceflights and it even sent the first known Bitcoiner, Chun Wang, the co-founder of the Bitcoin mining company f2pool, to space on March 31, Musk himself has never been aboard such a journey.
The space tech company, along with Tesla, also holds Bitcoin on its corporate balance sheet. Musk himself once talked highly of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Dogecoin.
