Bio
"He studied at the University of Pennsylvania and was hand-selected to attend Jack Ma’s Hupan University. Prior to starting TRON, Justin worked as the head of Ripple in China. Ripple’s model, similar to EOS,’ is what we at Two Prime refer to as a Continuous Token Offering – an ongoing sale of a token in public and private market concurrent with the use of raised funds. Knowing this, it seems to me Justin has taken his Ripple experience and applied it to TRON, seeing the token as a financial instrument before a technical one."
