Tron founder Justin Sun recently invited another prominent figure from the crypto community to be a guest at his upcoming lunch with Warren Buffett. Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire has now agreed to join the party.
Sun won the chance to sit and eat with Buffett after paying $4.5 million in a charity auction. The lunch is an annual tradition organized by the billionaire in order to raise funds for causes he deems to be worthy. This year's event could see a more heated debate than usual, as the strongly anti-Bitcoin entrepreneur, who has described the top crypto as 'rat poison squared' will be face-to-face with one of the crypto space's most prominent promoters.
The lunch is due to take place on July 25, and Sun has already reached out to a number of influential crypto figures to join him. Although tech expert Andreas Antonopolous and Binance head Changpeng 'CZ' Zhao have both declined, Litecoin founder Charlie Lee has confirmed that he will be in attendance. Replies from Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin and former The Apprentice host Donald J. Trump haven't been received yet.
Hi Justin, I would be honored to join you and @WarrenBuffett next week to discuss crypto!! Count me in. Crypto is now a major global policy issue and there is a great deal for Mr Buffet to understand and for us to learn from him as well. https://t.co/PGY8bXQBcZ

Jeremy Allaire has now announced that he will be getting in on the Buffett lunch action. The head of crypto payments firm Circle claims that he is "honoured" to be part of this historic meeting of minds, and he wants to bring the world's third-wealthiest person in the world up to speed with the latest developments in crypto, as well as getting some valuable advice from an 88 year-old man.
