Justin Sun wishes he could travel more. However, he feels overwhelmed by the workload in the cryptocurrency field.

“There are too many exciting things happening in crypto every week,” he said in a December interview with CoinDesk at home in Hong Kong. “I don’t really take vacation time. It’s hard to get away for a week.”
Translation: Sun highlights the dynamic nature of the crypto industry, making it difficult for him to take a break from his responsibilities.

If Sun did take a vacation, he would prefer a trip to Mars, but only if it was a round trip.

“I think the only thing [that] may change my mind on crypto is Mars exploration,” he said.
Translation: Sun expresses a unique perspective, suggesting that space exploration could divert his focus from cryptocurrency.

He finds the idea of trading crypto on Mars comical due to latency issues but reminisces about early trading experiences on platforms like Coinbase.

“In 2013, if you wanted to sell Bitcoin on Coinbase, they made you wait a week to find out if it sold… It was like being on Mars.”
Translation: Sun compares his past trading struggles to the challenges of trading from another planet.

Establishing himself as a key figure in Asian crypto since founding TRON in 2017, Sun boasts 3.7 million followers on X and 125 million active users on the TRON network.

Justin Sun is known for his significant influence in the cryptocurrency sphere, embracing challenges and opportunities as they emerge. Currently, he is preparing to speak at Consensus Hong Kong on February 19.
