Ok I just watched the live stream and what I saw was a 20 y old kid that hyped that their will a partnership with big names , none of that was announced! I am skeptic about how this kid can be a developer , only think I can find on him is an app he build witch was not very successful.

At points during the live stream it looks like he was trading and completely loosing focus, why do I see a kid making money on our backs , why did he fail to announce big partnership , why did the coin fail 15% during the announcement Huh

Well he is not just any 20-year-old kid.

Firstly, he's late 20's I believe, but he is also an extremely talented entrepreneur and if you think building an application with 10 Million users in the first 2-years is not very successful - I would love to see your portfolio of work.

He also had a very good position as a developer at Ripple in their early days.

He has been named on the Forbes 30 under 30 list for his accomplishments as an entrepreneur which should give you an idea of how successful this kid is. Nobody's don't make it on the list.

Look at Mark Zuckerberg and what people would have said about him when investing in facebook early on. They will be crying now.

I am sorry but if you can't see that this kid has what it takes, you might want to stop investing in early start-up type stuff, because there is 1 million times worse than him.

since you seem to be well versed with tron, can you break it down for a layman what exactly TRON is/does/promises? Seen a lot of hype around this in the past few weeks, and I'm not much of a fomo buyer, but it has certainly caught my attention. I'm too lazy to dig in on my own, so if you can help to break it down simply, would appreciate it.

Thank you.

I stole this off of their website but I couldn't explain it any better myself.

TRON is a blockchain-based decentralized protocol that aims to construct a worldwide free content entertainment system with the blockchain and distributed storage technology. The protocol allows each user to freely publish, store and own data, and in the decentralized autonomous form, decides the distribution, subscription and push of contents and enables content creators by releasing, circulating and dealing with digital assets, thus forming a decentralized content entertainment ecosystem.
Peiwo App with over 10 million users will become the first TRON-compatible entertainment APP.

If you have any specific questions I would be able to help explain it in my own words a bit better, but hopefully that gives you an idea.

But in short, if Tron have it their way, Facebook, Twitter, google, and those types of companies will no longer own and control all of our data and content. It will be a decentralised world full of decentralised applications and a whole new ecosystem for users and publishes.
