Referring to HTX advisor Justin Sun about the FTX exchange that collapsed last year, CZ said, “One week after renaming your exchange to FTX… Jokes aside, our security team will help track hacker funds whenever possible.” he said.
A week after you rename your exchange after FTX… 😂
Jokes aside, our security team will help in tracking hacker funds in all cases where we can. https://t.co/5BjoG6IGA8

Response from Justin Sun was not delayed
Justin Sun’s response to CZ’s humorous post was immediate. Saying that the letter “H” represents Huobi and the letter “T” represents Tron, Sun said, “I never thought it would be similar to FTX.” “Security and SAFU is a long-term effort and we will definitely continue to work hard!” said.
Thank you very much! In fact, the "h" stands for "Huobi," and "t" stands for "Tron." 😁I never thought it would be somewhat similar to FTX. 😂Security and SAFU is a long-term effort, and we will definitely continue to work hard!🫡
