Binance Founders Clash Over Liar Allegations

Star Xu accuses CZ of dishonesty amid ongoing feud

  • OKX founder Star Xu labeled Binance’s Changpeng “CZ” Zhao a “habitual liar” in recent posts, reigniting a dispute over allegations from over a decade ago.
  • The conflict began during Zhao’s brief time at OKCoin, where he faced accusations of misleading conduct related to a contract dispute involving Roger Ver in 2015.
  • Xu’s comments were prompted by the release of CZ’s memoir, which revisited past allegations, including claims of forged contracts.
  • Zhao challenged Xu to a $1 billion bet regarding his marital status and claimed he is “officially divorced,” while Xu questioned the legal separation of Zhao’s Binance stake.
  • The dispute escalated further when Xu referenced conflicting contract versions and accused Zhao of public deception.

This renewed confrontation highlights unresolved tensions between the two founders, particularly around past business practices and personal matters, with each party standing firm on their claims.

As the feud continues, both parties remain adamant about their positions, with Xu emphasizing past grievances while Zhao defends his integrity regarding personal and professional matters.(Source)
