Changpeng Zhao, known to many in the crypto community as CZ, has published a tweet to issue an important warning and remind his nine million X followers in light of current events related to Bitcoin and its recent astonishing price surge.
CZ warns crypto community against this
In his tweet, Changpeng Zhao told his millions of X followers to “be on the right side of history.” He quoted his own X post published on Nov. 1 last year, when he was still the chief executive officer at Binance.
Back on that day, he mentioned “a better form of money that helps billions,” warning the community that it “won’t be a good legacy” to be on the wrong side of history in this respect.

This tweet came as the global flagship cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, finally regained the $90,000 price mark after facing a large 5.7% decline, when it fell from above the $93,000 level reached on Wednesday.
On Nov. 13, Bitcoin skyrocketed to a historic peak of $93,434 upon recent political developments in the U.S. and after the Federal Reserve slashed the interest rate by 25 basis points.

When the ATH happened, CZ tweeted that there are likely to be many Bitcoin hikes and drops in the future, and he warned the community that they should “control their greed,” manage risks accordingly and should not put all their eggs in one basket.
