According to Odaily Planet Daily, CZ mentioned in his memoir, "Binance Life," that on September 4, 2017, the night before the "94 Ban" was announced, he received a message on his phone saying there would be a "major overhaul" the next day. At 12:30 AM that day, CZ held an emergency conference call with He Yi and other executives, ultimately deciding that he, He Yi, and Heina would go to Tokyo first, while the others would remain in Shanghai. To avoid being tracked, He Yi reminded CZ to remove his SIM card and turn off his phone en route, which CZ did. However, He Yi later told CZ that this idea came from spy movies she had watched, and she didn't know if they would actually be tracked.

According to Odaily Planet Daily, CZ mentioned in his autobiography, "My Binance Life," that he used the BTC-e platform after the collapse of Mt. Gox. During a deposit, he may have accidentally copied the wrong address and cryptocurrency, transferring 46 BTC (worth approximately $30,000 at the time) to the wrong blockchain. CZ then sent a recovery request email to the exchange's customer service and quietly received his BTC back two weeks later. He later learned that BTC-e might actually be the exchange operated by the Mt. Gox hackers themselves.

According to Odaily Planet Daily, CZ mentioned in his memoir "Binance Life" that in early 2014, he was recommended to become the CEO of Mt.Gox China, responsible for the Chinese business, and would also receive a 10% equity stake. However, just before the contract was to be signed, Mt.Gox collapsed on February 7, 2014, suspending user withdrawals, so CZ decided not to join. CZ did suffer losses; after the Mt.Gox collapse, his 100 bitcoins (worth $50,000 at the time, now worth approximately $7 million) deposited on Mt.Gox were also lost, but CZ did not try to recover them.

According to Odaily Planet Daily, CZ, in his autobiography "Binance Life," recounted details of his 2022 investment in Twitter (now X), stating: "In April 2022, news broke that Musk was going to acquire Twitter. My first reaction was: 'Great! At least Twitter's update speed will improve.' A few days later, the investment team told me: We can participate in the investment. We had a short meeting: Should we invest? How much? Is the valuation too high? Actually, I had no idea. After a 30-minute meeting, we decided to invest $500 million to support Twitter's privatization. This number was decided on a whim by a few people, without any specific data analysis. The reason was simple: we wanted money to be more free, and we had to support freedom of speech." "I only spoke briefly with Musk. We were both busy and didn't like small talk, so the conversation was short and direct. He only mentioned: he wanted to operate Twitter the way he wanted. I had no objection... I only attended a few meetings regarding the $500 million investment. We are still a minority shareholder in Twitter (now called X). X later merged with xAI, and we also became a minority shareholder in xAI. And xAI and SpaceX..." After the merger, we became minor shareholders in SpaceX again. Later, I learned from the news that FTX also wanted to participate. But Musk's "anti-hype radar" kicked in, and they weren't allowed to join. I must say, despite Elon's claim of having Asperger's, his judgment of people is quite accurate.

According to Huoxun Finance, Binance plans to suspend token deposits and withdrawals on the Polygon (POL) network at 21:00 (UTC+8) on April 8, 2026, to support its network upgrade and hard fork.
