Justin Sun, founder of TRON, sold 80-90% of his Ethereum holdings between $3,600 and $4,000, reallocating the proceeds primarily into US technology stocks, including a significant position in NVIDIA and the Nasdaq 100 index. He retains 20% of his original ETH as a base asset and maintains his Bitcoin holdings securely in cold wallets due to concerns over quantum computing and AI risks. Despite holding a large Nasdaq position, Sun expresses a slightly bearish outlook on traditional assets due to capital concentration and rising interest rates but remains optimistic about AI and Web3. This move highlights his strategy of treating Bitcoin as foundational, Ethereum as aggressive, and US tech equities as growth opportunities, signaling a notable shift from crypto to traditional equities among crypto founders.
