Binance CEO calls for unity in the crypto market
The rumors about the Interpol notice to the CEO of Binance began when a cryptic message was decrypted saying “Interpol sent Zhao a red notice.” The message, which was decrypted using the SHA-256 hashing algorithm, was originally posted to Cobie’s tweet. Zhao denied the allegations and said the alleged red notice was posted using a photoshopped image. He also questioned whether the rumors were planted by another crypto exchange.
At one point, the BNB price saw a 3% drop due to rumors about Zhao’s Interpol notice. More volatility would have been fatal for the crypto market given Binance’s dominance in terms of virtual asset exchange market share. Zhao said such speculation hurts the industry and even those who planted the rumors. He added that the industry is already facing significant concerns in the form of regulatory scrutiny.
“There are enough external forces attacking us,” Zhao said. Our industry needs to unite at this juncture.”
Meanwhile, bitcoin price is steadily trading around the $28,000 mark despite some cryptocurrency exchange rumors.
