Justin Sun's 8000-Word Recollection of Space Travel: You Have to Go Get What You Want
BlockBeats News, January 23rd, Beijing Voyager Space Technology Co., Ltd.'s "Voyager I (CYZ1)" is expected to achieve its manned maiden flight in 2028. Currently, there are over ten paid space tourists, with Chinese actor Huang Jingyu becoming the 009th space tourist. Regarding this domestic space flight, a user inquired about the "space travel" technical difficulty and market outlook.
On this issue, TRON founder Justin Sun responded for the first time on Zhihu in 8000 words. He stated that he had completed a space flight aboard Blue Origin's New Shepard (NS-34 mission) on August 3, 2025. Regarding the domestic commercial manned spacecraft plan, he believed that this marked the transition of space travel from "the experience of a few" to "a reality closer to more people."
When discussing the market outlook, Justin Sun pointed out that in the short term, space tourism may still be seen as a "luxury item" or a "gimmick." However, if the industry can leverage the flight experience into manufacturing, operation and maintenance, talent, and a standard system, it is expected to expand to a wider range of applications such as microgravity experiments, materials and drug development, payload testing, and more. He emphasized that safety and compliance are always the prerequisites. Justin Sun stated that for Chinese commercial spaceflight, "he hopes it is not only fast, but also stable." He called on the market to have more patience and understanding in focusing on engineering, testing, and post-failure analysis beyond ticket prices and popularity, truly driving space exploration towards sustainable development.
In his article, Justin Sun expressed that his longing for space originated from a sense of belonging to deep space in his childhood, and the launch of Shenzhou 5 in 2003 made him realize that "going to space" is not only science fiction but also a feasible reality. After four years of waiting following the scheduled flight, it finally took off on August 3, 2025. The author believed that the $28 million was not a transaction but a "arrival" of destiny. After experiencing pre-launch nervousness leading to frequent bathroom visits, weightlessness during the process, and challenges like facial deformation and breathing difficulties due to a 5.5G overload during landing, he concluded: Space travel is not a romantic adventure but a cold, realistic engineering miracle.

On March 4, 2026, DDC Enterprise Limited (NYSE American: DDC) today announced preliminary, unaudited full-year financial performance for the year ended December 31, 2025. The company expects to achieve record revenue and record positive adjusted EBITDA, primarily driven by continued growth in its core consumer food business and overall margin improvement. The final audited financial report is expected to be released in mid-April 2026.
Revenue: Expected to be between $39 million and $41 million, reaching a new company high.

Adjusted EBITDA: The company expects to achieve a positive full-year result in 2025, a significant improvement from a $3.5 million loss in 2024, mainly due to rigorous cost controls and a higher-margin sales mix.
In 2025, DDC's core consumer food business maintained strong operational performance.
The company also disclosed Core Consumer Food Business Adjusted EBITDA, a metric that further excludes costs related to its Bitcoin reserve strategy and non-cash fair value adjustments related to its Bitcoin holdings from adjusted EBITDA to more accurately reflect the core business performance.
In 2025, Core Consumer Food Business Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $5.5 million and $6 million.
In the first half of 2025, DDC initiated a long-term Bitcoin accumulation strategy, holding Bitcoin as its primary reserve asset.

DDC Founder, Chairman, and CEO Norma Chu stated, "We are proud to have closed 2025 with record revenue and positive adjusted EBITDA, demonstrating the steady growth of the company's consumer food business and the ongoing improvement in profitability. We are building a disciplined, growth-oriented food platform and strategically allocating capital to Bitcoin assets with a long-term view, aligning with our core beliefs. We believe that this dual-track model of 'Steady Consumer Business + Strategic Bitcoin Reserve' will help DDC create lasting long-term value for shareholders."
For the full year 2025, the company defines "Adjusted EBITDA" (a non-GAAP financial measure) as: Net income / (loss) excluding the following items:· Interest expense· Taxes· Foreign exchange gains/losses· Long-lived asset impairment· Depreciation and amortization· Non-cash fair value changes related to financial instruments (including Bitcoin holdings)· Stock-based compensation
DDC Enterprise Limited (NYSE: DDC) is actively implementing its corporate Bitcoin Treasury strategy while continuing to strengthen its position as a leading global Asian food platform.
The company has established Bitcoin as a core reserve asset and is executing a prudent, long-oriented accumulation strategy. While expanding its portfolio of food brands, DDC is gradually becoming one of the public company pioneers in integrating Bitcoin into its corporate financial architecture.
