Buffett’s Dinner Date Clashes With Devotees of Steemit Website

Controversial Chinese cryptocurrency entrepreneur Justin Sun, who paid $4.57 million for a charity dinner with Warren Buffett, is facing a revolt over a niche company he recently purchased.

In the past few weeks, the 29-year-old Sun has been called “a dictator” and worse on Twitter and in more than 1,500 comments. A boycott of the blogging company Sun acquired is in full swing, and a number of its employees have resigned. Two of the world’s largest crypto exchanges are distancing themselves from Sun. That has the crypto sphere debating the growing role of exchanges, and whether some types of digital ledgers called blockchains are secure enough.
