Mr. Sun was responding to <a href=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/news\/tron-obstructed-legitimate-attempts-to-claim-its-1-million-twitter-hack-bounty\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">an article that accused the Tron foundation<\/a> of sidestepping any legitimate lead that would have led to the arrest of the perpetrators. In his response, Just Sun explained <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/justinsuntron\/status\/1287300091192066048\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">the following<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>We initially offered the bounty to motivate leads to the hackers but since FBI now supports this investigation, we have no choice but to be compliant w\/ law enforcement. Bounty has been withdrawn to not cause disturbance to FBI&#8217;s investigation. Hope FBI catch the hackers soon!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>One response to Justin&#8217;s tweet thanked the founder of TRON for his efforts and highlighted the fact that such a bounty could have impeded the progress of the FBI in finding those responsible for the hack.
