Justin Sun purchased 1M UST on Curve

Chinese journalist Colin Wu's team has captured Sun's UST purchase and shared the details to reveal that he has bought 1 million UST on Curve Finance.

Justin Sun's purchase of UST follows an earlier Tweet in which he stated his intention to buy the stablecoin. Sun was asked what he was up to by Terra's Do Kwon in response to the strange announcement. "I may have a secret plan," Justin Sun replied.

Justin Sun has still not revealed his plans for the UST he recently purchased. Members of the crypto-twitter community believe he will either utilize it as a reserve for Tron's USDD stablecoin or commit the funds to a UST-USDD pool.

Sun's secret plan came within hours of TerraUSD (UST) depegging as a result of a huge selling of the stablecoin on Curve and Binance.

Launch of USDD

As announced by Justin Sun, Tron has launched its own decentralized algorithmic stablecoin USDD, which is currently available on Ethereum and BNBChain. It promises to reward a basic "risk-free" interest rate of 30% to all users.

While the secret plan of the founder is still a secret, USDD is similar in almost every way to UST. Its price is closely pegged to that of the US dollar via Tron's native token TRON and USDD. Like Luna Guard Foundation, Tron has also hinted at its intentions to keep $10 billion worth of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in reserve to support USDD.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
