Binance CEO is suing Bloomberg for calling his platform a "Ponzi Scheme"

The crypto world faces more than its fair share of the "FUD" reports.
But it seems Changpeng Zhao has had enough and is all fixed to strike back. In 2020, Forbes Media was in trouble; now, Bloomberg.

Zhao, the CEO of Binance, on Monday sued Bloomberg Businessweek's Hong Kong publisher Modern Media CL alleging "publish false and unfounded criminal charges against him"

The suit is based on Bloomberg Businessweek's June 23 article on Zhao: "Can Crypto's Richest Man Stand the Cold?" But the Chinese edition took a whole different approach, with the title, "Zhao Changpeng's Ponzi Scheme."

Zhao also sues the publication for using the same phrase again on Facebook and Twitter posts.

On June 25, CZ stated in a tweet, "While most journalists at Bloomberg are good, but this time, it was bad."
"Be accountable for your actions." He said.

Zhao confirms that the filing is a personal lawsuit and has nothing to do with the exchange.

That's not all. In the United States, a motion for discovery was also filed against Bloomberg for the defamation statements in the original article.

Zhao demanded the edition's removal from newsstands and that a restraining order be issued to stop the defendants from disseminating the portrayal any further. Fair enough.

Before the lawsuit was filed, however, Bloomberg somewhat allayed Zhao's concerns by changing the title to "The Mysterious Changpeng Zhao."
Furthermore, the offensive social media posts were taken down, and physical copies of the translated article were recalled in Hong Kong.

Was it irresponsible reporting on the publisher's part, or was it just lost in translation? Well, we don't want to get into trouble over-analyzing that part.
