Justin Sun Makes History as Youngest Chinese Astronaut Aboard Blue Origin’s New Shepard
TRON founder Justin Sun is blasting past earthly constraints—literally. The crypto entrepreneur just secured his spot as the youngest Chinese commercial astronaut aboard Blue Origin’s New Shepard spacecraft. Move over, Bezos—there’s a new space cowboy in town.
From blockchain to zero gravity
Sun’s pivot from digital assets to space tourism proves one thing: when you’ve got crypto wealth, the sky isn’t the limit—it’s just the starting point. The New Shepard mission marks another milestone for private spaceflight, with Sun joining the elite club of paying passengers who’d rather burn money on rocket fuel than hodl.
The ultimate moon shot
While most crypto founders content themselves with Lambos and private islands, Sun’s celestial ambitions put his peers’ earthbound extravagance to shame. Critics might call it a vanity project—but when your net worth fluctuates more than a SpaceX trajectory, why not literally reach for the stars?
