Binance co-founder Zhao Changpeng previously shared on the X platform data released by a media outlet about the UAE holding $40 billion worth of Bitcoin. Subsequently, some members of the community questioned this data, suggesting that the related report seemed like an AI-generated article. In response, Zhao Changpeng stated: "I also want to know how they arrived at this exact number. Collecting relevant data is quite difficult, higher than I expected, but that being said, there are many wealthy people there (in the UAE)."
