Justin Sun and Tron\u2019s legal battle with Bloomberg just got a lot bigger and a whole lot more complex. Here\u2019s what\u2019s next in the Tron founder\u2019s legal dispute.<\/p>\n
A federal judge\u2019s order and a fresh salvo from Justin Sun\u2019s camp have escalated the TRON founder\u2019s fight with Bloomberg over the disclosure of his crypto holdings.<\/span><\/p>\n TRON founder Justin Sun\u2019s legal dispute with Bloomberg deepened this weekend after his representatives accused the news outlet of breaking a confidentiality promise.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The statement came days after a Delaware federal judge rejected Sun\u2019s request to block Bloomberg from publishing details of his personal wealth.<\/span><\/p>\n The update was <\/span>posted<\/span><\/a> on Sunday on TRON DAO\u2019s Medium page. Sun\u2019s team said the case is about \u201caccountability\u201d and claimed \u201csome of what [Bloomberg] published was blatantly inaccurate.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n On September 22, Judge Colm Connolly<\/a> denied Sun\u2019s bid for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction. The court said Sun had not shown a strong chance of winning or proof of irreparable harm.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Sun\u2019s legal team stressed that Judge Colm F. Connolly\u2019s denial was based only on the high bar for early injunctions, not on the strength of their case. They argued that Bloomberg \u201cbroke a contractual promise of confidentiality\u201d in publishing details of his holdings.<\/span><\/p>\n In his <\/span>order<\/span><\/a>, Judge Connolly said Sun had not shown enough proof that Bloomberg agreed to keep the information private. He also pointed to Sun\u2019s own prior disclosures that weakened his claim to confidentiality.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The ruling cited Bloomberg\u2019s reported numbers: more than 60Bn TRX, about 17,000 BTC, 224,000 ETH, and 700M USDT.<\/span><\/p>\n The court decision came the same week <\/span>Bloomberg ran a prominent feature<\/span><\/a> on Sun, detailing his growing profile in US political circles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The coverage highlighted public interest in his wealth and influence, underscoring why the dispute over confidentiality has drawn so much attention.<\/span><\/p>\n Such a quandary! Justin Sun wanted to sound rich for the Billionaires list, so he divulged to Bloomberg proof that he owns 60 billion TRX. Unfortunately the supply is only 95 billion. So he freely admitted that one guy owns almost 2\/3 of Tron \ud83d\ude02What Asset Figures Reported by Bloomberg Were Highlighted in Court?<\/h2>\n
