Vitalik Buterin: My Praise For BitTorrent Had Nothing To Do With TRON, Justin Sun acts cheeky once again

Vitalik Buterin, the founder of Ethreum[ETH] can be seen in a video talking and praising about the new BitTorrent protocol in an early Vice video. Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, who also owns BitTorrent was quick to point it out.

According @beatscrypto, BitTorrent is one of the best acquistion by Tron as it will help increase mass adoption of Tron token. And the industry believes that. BitTorrent Token’s ICO was over within 15 minutes. The succesful ICO was a result of clever marketing and a good perception about the project.

The tweet bu Justin Sun was retweeted by @Tron Dapp, saying Vitalik Buterin is obsessed by Bittorrent and Tron. To that Vitalik pointed out the interview was from Aug 2017, while Tron acquired BitTorrent in Jul 2018.

“That interview was from Aug 2017. Tron acquired bittorrent in Jul 2018. My praise for bittorrent had nothing to do with Tron. This is like implying that because I like avocados, I approve of everyone who has ever bought an avocado.”

To which Justin Sun, was quick to pull Vitalik Buterin’s leg,

Blockmanity’s Take

The war between Vitalik Buterin and Justin Sun continues.  Vitalik is  like Nikola Tesla, a hardworking innovator whose technology is going to change the world, while on the other hand Justin Sun is like  Thomas Edison, who contributed something big but all subsequent inventions were taken over by force, and didn’t miss out on a chance to undermine Nikola Tesla. Justin Sun, like Thomas Edison is a marketing prodigy.
