ChainCatcher message: Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao reposted a tweet about “a New York Times reporter visiting his Abu Dhabi home to interview him” and responded, saying the reporter David admitted to being skeptical of him and hinting that his act of gifting Binance free merchandise was “bribery.” He said the merchandise was meant to make people “walking billboards,” while still thanking the outlet for the coverage.
The original tweet published by Ram said, “There are piles of Binance merchandise stacked right outside Zhao Changpeng’s door, and he insisted that the reporter pick a gift. The reporter said he couldn’t accept anything worth more than $20, and Zhao laughed and said ‘Probably worth $19.’”
