Ethereum vs. Battle TRON intensifies: Vitalik Buterin and Justin Sun collide on Twitter

Justin Sun and Vitalik Buterin clash once again on Twitter. The two juggernauts are back to trigger criticism against the platforms of one such as the Battle of Ethereum and TRON for market dominance.

Today on Twitter, Justin Sun has once again publicized the merits of the TRON platform. In a tweet, he linked an article in which Vitalik Buterin declared:

"… fundamentally the next wave of cryptographic adoption will not be built on hype because the hype has basically already arrived in. It has to come from really useful applications and things that value people."

In answer In Buterin's comment, Justin Sun tweeted the following:

"[Vitalik Buterin] admits that ETH led the 2017 bull run built on the hype. TRON will lead the next bull run based on massive adoption, dApps and BitTorrent … $ TRX [TRON’s ticker symbol]"

The comments are consistent with the usual promotion of TRON by Justin Sun previously clarified several times that TRON would have caused the next "bullfight".

In response to Sun's sneaky commentary, Buterin rejected stating that anyone who uses their ticker symbol in a tweet is "basically a self-identified shield and is not worth listening to".

Sun responded sarcastically by saying that Buterin can criticize his use of the TRX ticker after the Ethereum the platform corresponds to the alleged "2 million transactions per second" by TRON:

We can talk about the dollar symbol after the day #ETH reaches 2 million Tx a day, which I think will never happen. 😊#TRON https://t.co/MnnSFBPtZx

History of rivalry

The tense relationship between Vitalik Buterin and Justin Sun goes back to the origins of TRON. In the past, Buterin has widely criticized Sun & # 39; s brash plagiarism in the TRON white paper, taking extracts directly from IPFS and FileCoin and then using the code without attribution.

In a subtle comment from Buterin (referring to plagiarism), he observed that Justin Sun could have stolen more easily from these projects using the shortcut keys "Ctrl + C / Ctrl + V" to improve the efficiency of his plagiarism.

Buterin even went so far as to call Justin Sun's plagiarism in a meta April Fool & # 39; s joke. In a carefree Ethereum Proposal for improvement (the process that the Ethereum the developer community decides how to make software updates). Vitalik Buterin has plagiarized 20% of the proposal from the TRON website, paying homage to the white paper and code copy incidents.

However, Justin Sun is all but defenseless. He did not let the criticism slip and he increased his own attacks Ethereum, saying that in a bear market, developers should migrate to TRON:

In the bear market, #Ethereum developers should migrate your token to #TRON immediately. 1.0 transaction fee, n gas in #TRX. 2. Compatible with #ETH, 0 migration cost. 3. 2000 TPS. 4. #TRON dex list. You can easily increase the value of the 100% token with high liquidity. $ TRX

Maybe Buterin is right to say that Sun discovered TRON outright for its own gain, implying that those who extrapolate "1000x" earnings encourage "people to act more like Justin Sun".

"If you turn things around like this [saying that the market will experience 1000x price increases] * incentives * people to act more like Justin Sun. "

Or, alternatively, maybe Justin Sun is justified in his promotion of TRON. Assuming that his claims are accurate, TRON could be much better than Ethereum. Maybe it will be TRON by Justin Sun "goodbye" offer to Ethereum as TRX exceeds ETH.

Whatever the outcome, the aggressive marketing of Justin Sun of the TRON project does not go well with the more reserved leadership style of Vitalik Buterin technology. Given these circumstances, it seems unlikely that the two will ever manage to reconcile their disagreements around the two competing platforms.
