Strong before the flush, and will likely be the first major that gets back to the highs afterwards.

Changpeng Zhao Defends Crypto Exchange After Latest Attacks

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) is now defending the crypto exchange after it faced major heat following the congestion of orders during last week’s crypto market liquidations. Many have also accused the exchange of its role in manipulating the crypto market and BNB price.

However, CZ has come in defence of the exchange, noting that, unlike many crypto projects that rely on external market makers to support token prices, BNB operates independently without such intervention.

“Many projects have a market maker. BNB doesn’t,” CZ wrote on X. He further clarified that none of his affiliated entities have bought or sold BNB in recent weeks, thus stressing that the BNB price movement is completely market-driven.

Binance was also quick to announce a $283 million compensation for affected users during the recent crypto market volatility.

“Some people ask why is BNB so strong? While others tried to ignore, hide, shift blame, or attack competitors, the key BNB Chain ecosystem players (Binance, Venus, and more) took hundreds of millions out of their own pockets to PROTECT USERS. Different value system,” added he.
