During the Monday 12 dispatch of Twitter updates, Changpeng Zhao, described as CZ, was appreciative of Sun for showing support in this case. The other former CEO pointed towards the validation provided that this was coming from him particularly as he operates two rival exchanges. Otherwise, he was worried more about the ‘quote attacks’ in the industry.
Zhao implored his colleagues to cut down such Lowe’s distortions and instead advised teams to pull their socks up and work on their projects for their listing rather than expending energies seeking the exchanges. In addition, it was put on record that, “There was never any listing fees that were paid by Bitcoin.” This was corroborated by Sun who said, “If it comes to the design of the hellhole projects, what it is constructed for building something, focusing on building projects in the hands of working ends and the core which is Bitcoin is what matters.”
Yi He, a cofounder and Chief Customer Service Officer at Binance, however also dismissed the claims saying they are mere FUD:
FUD will never go away, but it makes us stronger. Gossip is easy to get traffic, and business competition is always full of dark sides; When you understand the rules of how the world works, you will no longer be easily swayed by rumors, and you will have the ability to think independently.
As she elaborated, a project cannot be listed if it didn’t pass through the screening phase, and there is no fee that “so called 20 percent” which the exchange asks before listing. Yi He also stated how balance ‘s listing policy regarding particular airdrop for its Launchpool is also straightforward and understandable as all other policies. In the end, she demanded that the community do ‘due diligence’ with respect to controversy whenever it rears its head.
