Altcoin News: First CZ and Now Antonopoulos Refused to Meet with Warren Buffett. The Names of the Guests Remain Unknown

Andreas Antonopoulos, a famous Bitcoin fan, refused to attend a charity lunch with Warren Buffett.

CEO of Tron, Justin Sun, recently acquired the right to dine with Buffett and invite several guests with him during last week’s auction for $4.57 million. In a conversation with CNBC, Sun said that he plans to invite several prominent representatives of the cryptocurrency industry, including Binance CEO, Changpeng Zhao, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin and Litecoin creator Charlie Lee.

In connection with the latest events, Antonopoulos wrote in his Twitter: “My twitter mentions have become unusable, flooded with thousands of messages of people “volunteering” me and others to go to a lunch with an investor, as PR shills for crypto. (no thanks) If you had an important message for me, you might need to try again in a week.”

Earlier, CEO of Binance stated that he would not attend the event, as it passes “very far” from him. Then community members began to propose the candidacy of Antonopoulos, based on the fact that no one can talk about Bitcoin as intelligibly as he did.

Others criticize Sun for another marketing trick funded by the project’s investors. While the names of the guests remain unknown, one of the possible candidates is the co-founder of the company Morgan Creek Digital — Anthony “Pomp” Pompliano, who himself had previously shown interest in meeting with Buffett.
