From now on, please call me Big Brother CZ! Thanks to the community for this nickname, it's an honor. Secretly angry at the New York Times.

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao CZ changed his head post today, thanking the community for calling him "big cousin" while strongly refuting the New York Times, what is the connection between the two? (Synopsis: Binance CZ calls for the development of "dark pool" DEX: even 1 billion magnesium whales will be sniped) (Background added: CZ refutes Wall Street Journal "I am not a middleman for Trump WLFI" and deliberately attacked crypto supporters) Today CZ played by himself, not only changed his X platform header, but also posted, "I am very honored to be called 'big cousin' or 'that man' by many Chinese communities" I am truly honored to be referred by many in the Chinese speaking community as: Big cousin, big cousin, that man (a nickname they gave me while I was in prison) — CZ BNB (@cz_binance) June 6, 2025 In fact, in addition to looking for humor for himself, CZ is essentially choking the New York Times! Because the New York Times previously asked CZ about his relationship with "Sky," who attended Trump's crypto dinner, CZ publicly denied it today, and in turn questioned the New York Times' motives for reporting. CZ Tough Response The New York Times focused on Trump dinner participant Tianying He (X account Sky) related to CZ on the grounds that Sky had posted a photo of CZ and called him a "cousin." CZ's post is very direct and clear: Want to see for yourself how FUD is made? I just received an inquiry from The New York Times: "We're writing a story about the Trump Meme Coin dinner in Washington, D.C., detailing one of the attendees, Tianying Ho, whose name on X is Sky. He has a photo with CZ (Changpeng Zhao) on his account and has interacted with CZ several times. (He even called CZ 'cousin' at one point.) Can someone help me explain to the English community in the comments section what "cousin" means? Add some facts to make it easier for you to reply: When I saw a photo of him wearing the BNB Chain logo, I had no idea who he was: I only learned a week after posting "perp dex" that he was working on the luckyfutures project, and he took the initiative to contact me. We hadn't spoken at all until then. Well, now his project is going to be popular, and it will go straight to "New Times"! I'VE NEVER TALKED TO SKY ABOUT TRUMP OR THE UNITED STATES. So how desperate are you to make up this kind of story? Or are you simply collecting money to smear? Seeing this, you probably know why CZ started calling himself "big cousin", right? But he took the opportunity to replace the AI picture of the community as his "big cousin" with a headpost, and humored while being angry, which is a strong public relations technique. On the other hand, the crypto market of course quickly appeared a lot of meme coins under the name BC Big Cousin, rubbing up. Why is CZ so angry? Previously, the media kept rumoring that CZ sought US President Donald Trump's pardon and withdrew the Binance-related lawsuit. The Trump Meme Coin dinner also broke out a lot of controversy (suspected criminal ex-convicts were invited to the dinner, Trump Tuli... At present, any "connection" with Trump is particularly sensitive, and CZ's long-term response to the media's rumor-mongering reports on him naturally became angry again. There is also no publicly available information confirming that Sky or its company, LuckyFuture, have substantial personal or business ties to CZ or Binance.
