Is Justin Sun The Bezos of Blockchain?
Woke up this morning to a tweet by @kinakomochi that Steemit and Tron are merging. Still don't quite know the details, but I have known for a while that Tron is trying to position itself as a multimedia based blockchain. Pretty smart considering most are either trying to be a better bitcoin or Ethereum killer. I am completely neutral about all of this, being pretty much a Bitcoin maximalist when it comes to money, everything else is up in the air.

So I got to thinking about Justin's thinking or rather Silicon Valley's thinking, grow fast and break things. Which led me to wonder who Justin reminded me of. Bezos came to mind. As Amazon started out selling books. Focused on one market. It took a long time for Amazon to turn a profit, but along the way it started gobbling up competition and expanding into other areas. Is this what Justin is doing with Tron? I don't know, but out of all the blockchain people out there, he keeps buying projects, establishing collaborations and integrating them into Tron - see BitTorrent, Dlive, now Steemit. 

Maybe he's just a great marketer and all of this will fail spectacularly. Who knows? I'm sure people said that about Bezos too. I am open to Steem/Steemit moving to Tron. Let's see what happens.

Thank you @mariannewest . I was rushed before the live stream, but I thought it was interesting he keeps pushing forward with his "Media" blockchain, regardless of what people think of it. I see lots of people on the stream are not happy about it. I say let's see what happens. Reminds me of the 80's & 90's mergers.

Hope you are doing well!
