CZ’s comments
Binance CEO Changpeng ‘CZ’ Zhao recently expressed concern about jitters, a phenomenon where an existing trading order is delayed to allow more recent trades to be completed. While CZ did not explicitly target any exchange at the time of the discussion, the crypto community on Twitter assumed it was targeting FTX. On August 20, he posted on Twitter:
You all knew and said nothing. We have to fight bad actors.
Just learned a new word, jitters. On 1 particular exchange, sometimes your orders will be stuck for a bit, and a few other orders will get in front of you. Apparently, this happens often enough on this exchange that the traders coined a term for it, jitters. (Front running) 🚫
