Original Title: Justin Sun Exclusively Responds to Space Journey: Will Have Crypto Easter Eggs for Everyone
On July 22, Blue Origin, the private aerospace company owned by Amazon founder Bezos, announced the passenger list for its latest flight mission codenamed NS-34, which included a very familiar name, Justin Sun. The specific time for this mission has not yet been announced, but generally, once the passenger list is published, the departure time is likely to be soon.
In other words, in a few weeks, this Chinese crypto entrepreneur born in 1990 will sit in the rocket seat he bought for $28 million in 2021 and enjoy a brand new experience.
Regarding this, BlockBeats also chatted with Justin about everyone's most concerned question: "How will Justin promote TRON in space". After all, TRON has been shining this year, occupying half of the stablecoin market and buying a US-listed company to successfully list on NASDAQ. If he could leave a mark in space, it would undoubtedly be a perfect year for TRON and Justin Sun. Justin clearly stated that there will be no logo on the rocket's exterior, but those active in the crypto community will definitely find the Easter eggs.
6 Passengers of NS-34
BlockBeats: You booked this seat in 2021. What preparations have you made for this space journey during this time?
Justin Sun: Yes, I reserved this space journey seat as early as 2021. At that time, many people thought it was just a distant dream, but for me, this was a long-term investment in the future - not only a trust in technology but also a belief in human exploration spirit.
I have made comprehensive preparations for this space journey. Physically, I underwent high-intensity training, including adapting to zero-gravity environments, simulating spacecraft operations, and physical enhancement to ensure I can handle the extreme conditions in space.
Psychologically, I spent a lot of time studying the mysteries of space science and contemplating humanity's meaning in the universe, which further strengthened my belief in combining this journey with TRON's spirit of pushing boundaries. I have closely collaborated with the mission team to ensure this adventure reflects our vision of a decentralized internet. It's a challenging but exciting process, and I'm honored to represent the crypto community in reaching for the stars, hoping to encourage more people to think about the future boundaries of humanity. TRON has always emphasized "decentralization reshaping the world", and space is one of the largest "boundaries".
BlockBeats: Musk once printed the DOGE logo on a rocket. Is it possible that the TRON logo will be on this flight's rocket, or will you wear a TRON cultural shirt in space?
Justin Sun: Regarding whether the TRON logo will appear on the rocket, many friends have been asking. To be honest, Blue Origin considers safety and standardization, so it's impossible to print external brand logos on this rocket, which is understandable since this is a very rigorous space mission.
As for whether I will personally bring TRON elements to space... I'll keep that a mystery. The spacesuit I'll wear on the flight day is a custom blue aerospace suit made by Blue Origin for each space passenger, which cannot be easily changed. However, during the training period, including some daily activities in the astronaut village, there might be some "Easter eggs".
As for whether there will be other surprises during the flight, I won't spoil too much. I'll leave some mystery for everyone. When I return, everyone can look for these hidden "TRON and Crypto moments" together. Perhaps in one frame, you'll find a familiar red logo or an unintentional crypto signal. After all, I've always believed that the spirit of "decentralization" will eventually enter a broader world in various forms, including space.
BlockBeats: As the youngest Chinese commercial astronaut in history, how do you think Crypto and the space field will have a closer integration in the future?
Justin Sun: As the current youngest Chinese commercial astronaut, I'm very clear that this space flight is not just a personal breakthrough, but also a symbol representing a new generation of Chinese entrepreneurs moving from blockchain and AI to higher-dimensional technological frontiers, such as space.
I've always believed that Crypto and space will ultimately merge into the same human civilization upgrade movement. Why? Because they share a core commonality: decentralization and boundary breaking. Crypto reconstructs traditional finance, and space exploration challenges Earth's boundaries. They are both redefining rules through technology.
In the future, I can boldly imagine several directions:
·On-chain space asset management: Such as space satellites, minerals, communication frequencies can be confirmed and distributed through on-chain methods;
·Inter-planetary financial system: In the era of space colonization or deep space exploration, traditional financial systems cannot extend, and Crypto is a natural inter-planetary value medium;
·Blockchain + Space Data: Blockchain can become a trusted record carrier for space station, satellite network data, preventing tampering;
·Web3 community-driven space crowdfunding: Future rocket launches and satellite plans may be funded and governed by global DAO communities.
In a sense, Crypto is the first step of technology driving social structure change, and space is the next step. I will personally use this flight as a bridge, hoping to bring the crypto community's spirit to space and bring space's broad vision back to Crypto.
