The downtrend in the crypto market persists, due to increased fears of an incoming recession. The google search volume of recession has skyrocketed in recent weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The June jobs report, which was released last week, showed that employment is strong with high wage growth, increased the chance of a recession. This is because it results in a more aggressive Federal Reserve, who must fight to help minimise domestic inflation. A recession typically means that P\/E multiples (which is what investors are willing to pay for a stock, given its earnings) would be compressed, resulting in a potential decrease in stock prices, therefore impacting crypto due to the currently high correlation.<\/p>\n<p>Within the crypto ecosystem, concerns around a liquidity crisis have decreased. Justin Sun, the founder of the TRON protocol, which is one of the largest blockchain networks, said he&#8217;s ready to join Sam Bankman-Fried in offering financial support to crypto firms that are struggling with liquidity issues. Sun said he could spend up to $5 billion on acquisitions, after several companies have reached out to him for help.<\/p>\n<p>Sam Bankman-Fried\u2019s FTX has already provided support to Voyager Digital and BlockFi, with Binance CEO CZ claiming that 50-100 crypto firms are asking for help, due to the exchange having the &#8220;largest cash reserve in the industry.&#8221; Sun claimed a similar number have reached out to TRON too.<\/p>\n<p>According to TRON\u2019s website, their DAO has $2.3 billion in reserves. Sun said, &#8220;Our interest is platforms with a large user base, both CeFi and DeFi platforms.&#8221; Sun said he thinks the worst of the current market downturn is behind us. He claimed, &#8220;I currently think the de-leverage process is passed the worst time, so we just need to clean it up and move forward. I don&#8217;t think [the] market will be super bullish, of course.&#8221; The macro-economic environment may mean that the liquidity crisis persists for longer though, due to the Federal Reserve being forced to respond to persistently high inflation and continue to withdraw liquidity.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-blockchain.com\/2022\/07\/15\/justin-sun-altruism-or-greed\/#comment-7572\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Marcus Sotiriou, Analyst\u00a0at the\u00a0publicly listed digital<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":160444,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Justin Sun \u2013 Altruism or Greed?
