In recent days, how did this wave of collective bombardment on @CZ come about?
In recent days, the Crypto community has suddenly boiled over:
Once hailed as a 'crypto hero', @CZ has now become the biggest target for criticism.
Since last Friday, in just a few days, tags like 'CZ touch = death', 'Binance = the biggest P&D machine', and 'systematic harvesting after release' have skyrocketed in trending searches.
The trigger is clear: @CZ After being released in September 2025, Binance has noticeably accelerated the launch pace of Launchpool, Alpha, and meme-type projects. Recently, there have been multiple cases where a single listing has led to significant drops, with the community reporting an average decline of 70–95% for recently promoted projects after listing. In the current volatile market, users have faced concentrated losses, naturally directing their anger towards the most prominent exchange and the most vocal CZ.
What is more exciting is that the narrative rhythm has been amplified in the past few days: CZ is publicly shouting about the 2026 supercycle, buy & hold; on the other hand, after the launch of some new coins, there were large sell orders and selling pressure, so the community quickly formed a storyline of 'shouting bull → retail FOMO → internal selling → user liquidation'. In a weak market, this narrative is almost viral.
Moreover, due to historical legacy controversies, compliance doubts, and the recent repeated mention of topics related to Trump's pardons, conspiracy theories have spread rapidly, impacting many people's confidence in CZ.
But don't overlook one point: CZ is no longer the CEO of Binance. Attributing all the dissatisfaction in the market over the past few days to him personally is actually a form of emotional over-attribution. Many people even bluntly say: Market up we love @CZ , market down we hate @CZ .
The reality may lie in between: Binance does have issues with listing quality and transparency, and CZ's public statements have also intensified trust fluctuations; however, demonizing him as the 'biggest villain in the industry' while ignoring the bear market cycle, platform scale effects, and users' own risk choices is also unfair.
Is this wave of outburst an emotional explosion, or a signal reversal?
