China was burning through reserves at a rate of $100bn per month at the peak of the renminbi scare. Ability to liquidate assets at that sort of rate is what draws PBOC to US Treasury market, not some estimate of likely investment return pic.twitter.com/t4FJsewBpi

So I got a lot of hate for my TRON retweet. Shows that there are A LOT of $TRX bagholders. If you really believe in the project, some FUD is only a speed bump. When you are a top10 coin, you need to be able to survive some FUD.

These tweets help me block haters from my feed.😁
