The crypto whiz kid who paid $4.6 million to have lunch with Warren Buffett asked Donald Trump and a slew of crypto bosses to join them.
Justin Sun - the founder and CEO of Tron, which operates the 15th largest cryptocurrency - can bring up to seven companions to the lunch with Berkshire Hathaway's billionaire CEO. He has invited executives from Ethereum, Litecoin, Binance, Circle, Huobi, eToro, and other crypto firms to attend, but not all have accepted.
Sun is working to reschedule the meal after postponing it in July, a move that sparked conspiracies he was in trouble with the Chinese government. However, finding a date that fits everyone's diaries has proven challenging.
"It took about two months for us to get all nine people to come to San Francisco and sit in one room for five hours with Warren Buffett," Cliff Edwards, Tron's communications director, told Blocktv. "We are in the process of corralling all of those nine people again to get it back on track."
Here's everyone Sun has invited to his lunch with Buffett.
