Founder Justin Sun is set to add to the collections of projects he has at hand, as a report claims the CEO is set to purchase content distribution platform Steemit.

Tron is about to expand by bringing in blockchain content platform Steemit into its family, a Chinese new platform has said.

Chinese news platform Mars Finance claimed it was informed by a familiar source that Tron is about to add Steemit to its stream of networks in the blockchain industry. Previously in early December, Justin Sun hinted on an acquisition to strengthen the potency of Tron and BitTorrent ecosystem.

The proclamation was followed by a partnership with KuCoin-incubated POOL-X PoS Mining pool which will allow Tron to work on the network of the acclaimed next-generation PoS mining Pool network. Yet there was no clear indication that the partnership is the acquisition deal Sun was talking about.
