Binance Founder CZ Donates 150 BNB to Libra Scam Victims, Receives Mysterious Broccoli Gift

February 19, 2025

2 minutes read

Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the founder of Binance, has donated 150 BNB (approximately $60,000) to victims of the Libra scam, a fraudulent crypto scheme that defrauded investors. The donation, aimed at helping affected users recover some of their losses, was made shortly after the scam was exposed.

Following his donation, an unidentified crypto wallet sent CZ an unusual gift—Broccoli tokens along with some BNB. The reason behind the transfer remains unclear, but it has sparked speculation within the crypto community. Some believe it could be a symbolic gesture, while others suggest it might be an inside joke or marketing stunt.

The Libra scam involved a deceptive scheme where users were promised high returns on their crypto investments, only for the project to collapse, leaving many investors with significant losses. Binance has been actively working to combat fraud in the crypto space, and CZ’s donation highlights ongoing efforts to support affected users.

Despite stepping down as Binance CEO, CZ remains influential in the crypto industry. His donation has been widely appreciated, reinforcing his commitment to ethical practices and investor protection. However, the mysterious Broccoli token transfer has added an unexpected twist to the story, leaving the crypto community curious about its true intent.
