Justin Sun

Justin Sun fascinates me less as a technologist than as a showman. The Peking University graduate who built TRON is a master of attention, self-promotion and controversy in equal measure, and opinions on him split sharply down the middle. But provoking that much debate is itself proof he can't be ignored. Whether you see him as a visionary or a hype machine, the nerve required to shake up global crypto at such a young age is undeniable. I stay skeptical of the spectacle, yet I won't pretend his impact is anything other than real and outsized.
