Here’s a response to Sun’s tweet: “market consolidation, same happened in the tech bubble…you want to be invested in the platforms that are acquiring tech/platforms/users. Most other platforms will run out of money trying to build and compete. #TRX #TRON.”
Ned Scott, former CEO, chairman and founder of Steemit, stated the following about the partnership:
“Steemit is the original conception of forums meeting cryptocurrency to achieve mass adoption — where cryptocurrency could be distributed as easily as ‘likes’ and ‘upvotes’ and this high powered distribution mechanism would bring adoption and appreciation to the currency and the social network.”
