CZ’s Terra and UST statement As we have covered in
Kriptokoin.com news, Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) made critical statements about the Terra ecosystem today. He explained that the Delist decision was taken to prevent any grievances as investors continue to buy despite the high LUNA supply. Stating that they could not get a response even though Binance contacted the Terra team, CZ cited the $650 billion Ronin hack attack as an example, saying that they were able to eliminate the grievances after the planned and determined work of the Axie Infinity team, but the Terra team reacted negatively to this event.
