After Justin Sun, the founder of Tron (TRX), carried out a significant transfer of TUSD tokens and deposited them on the Binance exchange, Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the CEO of Binance, released a statement on Twitter warning Sun against any attempt to take advantage of the upcoming Launch Pool SUI token airdrop on May 1.
This move by Sun garnered a lot of attention from cryptocurrency investors and traders, who speculated that Sun’s significant staking of TUSD could potentially dominate the launch of the SUI tokens. CZ’s warning is seen as a proactive measure to prevent unfair market manipulation and ensure a level playing field for all traders and investors participating in the airdrop.
Sun explained that he took action in the TUSD network to enhance liquidity requirements and ensure the asset’s price remained stable across exchanges. He aimed to boost TUSD’s performance by carrying out strategic activities that would benefit its users and stakeholders.
CZ expressed in his tweet that Binance LaunchPool is an airdrop opportunity for all retail users and not just for a few whales. He emphasized that the platform was designed to be inclusive and accessible to all users, regardless of their financial status or market influence.
By providing a level playing field for retail users, Binance LaunchPool aims to foster a more equitable and inclusive crypto ecosystem where everyone can participate and benefit from the network’s growth.
Changpeng clarified that any attempt by Sun to sell SUI tokens from the airdrop would be detected through blockchain data transfer. He assured the community that Binance was closely monitoring the network to ensure the integrity of the airdrop.
Over the past 24 hours, the TUSD price has increased by 0.49% and is currently traded at $1.00. The trading volume has also significantly increased by 145.91% to $1,933,547,664.
