X users could only access CZ's account for a limited time on November 23 by selecting a button indicating that access was “temporarily restricted.” A settlement with United States authorities in which he pled guilty to a single felony charge entailed Zhao's resignation as CEO of cryptocurrency exchange Binance on November 21.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Former Binance CEO Zhao<\/a> speculated in a November 23 update that the restriction was an automated reaction to his profile name change from “CZ Binance” to “CZ BNB”:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Richard Teng, the global director of regional markets for the cryptocurrency exchange, has taken on the leadership position. However, compared to Zhao, Teng has a modest 231,600 followers on X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
