Binance's CZ Accused of Being a Habitual Liar by OKX Founder Star Xu
Binance founder Changpeng Zhao and OKX founder Star Xu are embroiled in a public feud on X, trading accusations of fraud, dishonesty, and personal misconduct.
The clash reignited after Zhao published his prison-penned memoir earlier this week, which Xu says misrepresented events from Zhao's 2015 stint at OKCoin, the predecessor to OKX.
Xu pointed to a video that shows conflicting contract versions from that period and called Zhao 'a habitual liar' who 'never changes,' accusing him of misleading the public about a contract dispute involving early Bitcoin investor Roger Ver.
CZ wrote in his book that Xu had accused him of forging a contract 'out of the blue.' He denied the allegations in a Reddit post in May 2015 and detailed problems he observed at OKCoin.
