Can Anyone Explain STEEM to Trump?

A funny meme tweeted by beardtraveller to Trump

Gradually, it appears to me that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are becoming a threat to world financial system and are putting a challenge to the dominance of USD in the world trade.

In past, HNWI people like Warren Buffet whose business interests are tied to the value of USD had famously taken a stance against cryptocurrencies.

Now it has reached to a level that the President of United States of America has to give a statement against cryptocurrencies to defend United States Dollar. Today, POTUS Donald Trump tweeted:

Trump on Bitcoin -2.png

I don't know whether Trump himself is ignorant of the truth of Bitcoin and his false claims about USD or this statement is politically motivated but one thing is obvious that this is an opportunity to talk about cryptocurrencies to the world as whole world is watching his statement on crypto.

But not many influential people from crypto space took advantage of this golden opportunity except the charismatic leader of Tron blockchain. Immediately after this tweets, Justin Sun replied to POTUS as:

With this tweet, Justin Sun is targeting two birds with one shot - Warren Buffet & Donald Trump. But more than Trump, this tweet was for the others to read and applaud for Sun.

However, perhaps in a hurry, Justin Sun forgot to mention TRX or BTT in this tweet. Some tried to push the case of XRP here.

In my opinion, it would have been great if someone from Steem Witnesses or STINC had taken this opportunity to put a daring reply to Trump for a case for STEEM vis-a-vis Libra or even SBD vis-a-vis USD.

I'm sure Trump is not going to join Sun for the lunch with Buffet but such a response from Sun is bound to create ripples in favour of Tron in the media. So I think this was an opportunity for free publicity which could have even been used by Steem in some way.

Steem has no dearth of talented and creative people in its community. Won't someone like to capitalize on such an opportunity that could give a good exposure to STEEM?

UPDATE:


And finally I found Steem tweeting this:

A big round of applause for Steem!

Haha, imagine that, he gives the canned Wall Street response to crypto and BTC. If you are wealthy in the current fiat model and literally have all the power in the world you could ever want, you probably aren't the biggest crypto hawk in the room. Too funny, thanks for sharing xyashu!
