The tweet that sparked speculation included a screenshot purportedly showing Sun's crypto holdings, which received nearly 356,000 views.
However, it was later revealed that the image came from Parsec, a crypto markets company, and published the same screenshot with the caption “an active day for on-chain liquidations.” There was no reference to Sun in the original post.
