What would it mean if Justin Sun did purchase Steemit inc?

There has been some rumours recently that Justin Sun (founder of Tron) is in the midst of purchasing Steemit inc to add to his empire. 

So what would this mean for Steem? In one word PUBLICITY. Justin Sun is a master at hype - look how well Tron has done with just promises. Imagine the same hype with Steem, an actual working product with many dedicated users and coders. 

Justin Sun has the potential to take Steem to the next level. He is a regular on Twitter with a massive 2.1 million followers. Along with this he has many, many loyal followers of Tron who could be converted to Steem.  Sun has many contacts in high places which could see the userbase of Steem dramatically increase.

It is unknown what his approach would be, but considering the Tron slogan is 'decentralize the web' it seems he would have some ambitious plans for Steem to work alongside Steem.

These are all rumours at the moment, but if it comes to fruition I feel that exciting times are just around the corner for Steem 😏.

I'm not certain it's true and I suppose it could be no more than a well-placed publicity stunt I guess...But if true possibly it's a good thing as it may bring additional exposure to steem? 

What do know though. I'm just a content creator.
