Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) published a tweet re-encouraging followers to “ignore FUD” – this time surrounding rotating management at his exchange’s U.S. subsidiary, Binance.US.
The statement follows three executive departures from the exchange this week, mimicking earlier, similar behavior from top brass at the international exchange.
