Sister Wood's public denunciation ignites trust crisis in Binance

Origin of the event

The cryptocurrency exchange Binance has recently fallen into a serious public opinion crisis, facing widespread criticism across the internet.

The trigger for this storm was the statement made by Cathie Wood, founder of Ark Invest, on a television program, where she attributed the drop in Bitcoin's price from $80,000 to $90,000 to Binance's software failure on October 10, which led to $28 billion in deleveraging.

As an early investor in Coinbase and Bitcoin, Sister Wood's remarks carry significant influence. Process of crisis escalation

1. International community response

• Leonidas, co-founder of Ordinals, made fierce remarks, calling Zhao Changpeng (CZ) "the biggest fraudster in human civilization history"

• Accused Binance of manipulating the market, demanding to "send them back to prison"

2. Spread in the Chinese community

• Trader Chuan Mu and other KOLs joined the condemnation, accusing Binance of "harvesting tens of billions in a single day"

• Old grudges and new resentments: Most of the new coins listed on Binance last year have halved in value

3. Binance's response

• CZ believes this is an organized "troll attack", and He Yi urgently refuted rumors;

• Characterized the controversy as an inevitable phenomenon in industry transformation;

• Emphasized that the cryptocurrency industry is still in its early stages, and volatility and controversy are unavoidable.

Deep-seated contradictions analysis

• Market sentiment venting: In a persistently sluggish market, investors seek emotional outlets

• Responsibility perception gap:

• As the largest beneficiary in the industry, Binance is expected to bear more responsibility

• However, attributing all problems to the exchange clearly lacks fairness

• User risk control deficiencies: Ignoring self-risk management responsibilities

Industry insights

3. Independent judgment and risk management capabilities are crucial

This crisis reflects the growing pains of the cryptocurrency industry and reminds all participants: In a highly volatile market, self-responsibility is the way to survive.
