ChainCatcher reported that according to Bloomberg, Zhao Changpeng recalled in an interview his experience of being forced to leave Binance and serving a four-month sentence, during which he passed the time by exercising, writing books, and discussing cryptocurrencies with his cellmates. CZ said: "I don't think I want to go back to being the CEO of Binance. I have led the company for seven years. I enjoy this job. Although the work is heavy. But I think that chapter is over."
Additionally, Zhao Changpeng said he even received an offer to sell his controlling stake in the exchange — a stake that makes up the bulk of his personal net worth — but he declined to reveal who the buyer was or the price.
Zhao Changpeng declined to comment on the US election, but said he was satisfied with the direction of X (formerly Twitter).
“I think Twitter has grown a lot faster since Elon Musk took over, with new features and changes happening a lot faster,” Zhao said. “I’m not too worried about the value of the investment going up or down. We are long-term investors.”
