Crypto Billionaire Justin Sun’s Space Adventure: Is He Really Going to Space?

In a tweet that could only be described as a cosmic coincidence, Jeff Bezos’s interstellar playground, Blue Origin, has hinted that they might just be offering a space ride to none other than crypto billionaire Justin Sun. Yes, you heard it right! It appears that Sun is on the brink of becoming not just the first crypto billionaire, but also the first person from the crypto universe to boldly go where no blockchain has gone before. 🚀

Sun to fly to space with Blue Origin

On May 29, the Tron founder, Justin Sun, decided to drop a tweet that was as subtle as a supernova, addressing Blue Origin with a cheerful, “Hello @BlueOrigin👋Big things coming? I’m excited!” This tweet was accompanied by a delightful image of Sun cozily nestled in a spacecraft simulator, flipping through a Forbes magazine featuring his own dazzling visage on the cover. Because, of course, what’s a space trip without a little self-promotion? 📸

“We look forward to seeing you in West Texas on a future New Shepard flight soon!” Because nothing says “I’m ready for space” like a trip to Texas, right? 🤠

Hello @justinsuntron👋We look forward to seeing you in West Texas on a future New Shepard flight soon!

Back in 2021, Justin Sun participated in yet another charity auction, where he placed a winning bid for the first seat on Blue Origin’s Inaugural New Shepard rocket. The price? A staggering $28 million! Yes, you read that correctly. That money went to Blue Origin’s foundation, Club for the Future, which aims to inspire future generations to pursue careers in STEM and help invent the future of life in space. Because who wouldn’t want to be inspired by a guy who spends millions to go to space? 💸

Sun’s renowned lunch with Warren Buffett

Now, let’s not forget that Sun will have five crewmates joining him on this galactic escapade. Originally, this flight was supposed to take off in 2022, but like many things in life, it got delayed. Sun is also famous for winning a chance to have lunch with the legendary investor Warren Buffett, which cost him a mere $4.5 million in 2019. The lunch took place in 2020, where Sun brought along a gaggle of crypto bigwigs, including Litecoin’s Charlie Lee and eToro’s Yonni Assia. Changpeng Zhao, however, was mysteriously absent, perhaps lost in the vastness of the crypto cosmos. 🍽️

During this extravagant lunch, the crypto influencers engaged in a riveting discussion about the crypto space with Buffett, who remains a staunch Bitcoin critic. Sun even gifted him a smartphone loaded with Bitcoin and TRX, because nothing says “I value your opinion” like a digital currency gift! 📱

Finally meeting the legend in person @saylor thank you for everything you do for the industry, together let’s make #Bitcoin even stronger!

This year, Sun has also graced a dinner organized by Donald Trump for the biggest holders of his TRUMP coin and attended the Bitcoin 2025 event, where he rubbed elbows with Michael Saylor, the Winkelvoss twins, and Trump Jr. Because if you’re going to go to space, you might as well do it with a few celebrities, right? 🌌
