Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated once said the inimitable Mark Twain. A similar story is happening now with the head of Binance, Changpeng Zhao. Recently, he had to refute the news of his death twice.
So, on March 3, the Chinese social network WeChat wrote that Zhao was gunned down FBI agents.
And now journalists have come up with an even more colorful story. According to the media, Zhao got drunk and got behind the wheel. On the way he was stopped by a policeman, an argument ensued. During the CZ conflict supposedly pulled out a gun, and the cops had to open fire first.
The yellow press adds that the cops released in CZ 27 bullets.
