Binance前首席执行官Changpeng“ CZ” Zhao否认他同意为Tron创始人Justin Sun提供证据

Changpeng "CZ" Zhao, the former CEO of Binance, has denied claims that he agreed to provide evidence against Tron founder Justin Sun as part of a plea deal with the United States Department of Justice (DOJ).

Binance前首席执行官Changpeng“ CZ” Zhao否认声称他同意向Tron创始人Justin Sun提供证据，这是与美国司法部（DOJ）的认罪协议的一部分。

In an April 11 report, The Wall Street Journal cited unnamed sources alleging that CZ had agreed to testify against Sun in the terms of his settlement with US prosecutors.

在4月11日的报告中，《华尔街日报》列举了未透露姓名的消息来源，指称CZ已同意以他与美国检察官的和解的方式作证。

“As part of Zhao’s plea deal, he agreed to give evidence on Sun to prosecutors, an arrangement that hasn’t previously been reported,” the WSJ report stated, citing sources familiar with the matter.

WSJ报告说：“作为赵的认罪协议的一部分，他同意向检察官提供有关太阳的证据，这是以前没有报告的安排。”

“But facts are facts. WSJ is really TRYING here. They seem to have forgotten who went to prison and who didn’t. People who become gov witnesses go to prison. They are protected. I heard someone paid WSJ employees to smear me.”

“但是事实是事实。WSJ确实在这里尝试。他们似乎已经忘记了谁被判入狱而没有。

CZ was sentenced to four months in federal prison in April 2024 for Anti-Money Laundering (AML) violations. He walked free from the correctional facility on Sept. 27 as the wealthiest person to ever serve a US prison sentence, with a $60 billion net worth at the time.

CZ于2024年4月因反洗钱（AML）违法行为被判处四个月的联邦监狱判处。他于9月27日从惩教所释放，是有史以来最富有的人，当时有600亿美元的净资产。

In a separate April 11 post, CZ claimed multiple individuals had warned him about the Journal’s intentions to publish what he described as a “hit piece.”

在4月11日的另一篇文章中，CZ声称多个人警告了他有关该期刊发表他所说的“热门作品”的意图。

“I am getting msgs from friends & colleagues who are surprised by the defamatory article on me by the WSJ (again). People who know me know it’s not true. Those who don’t … well. It's a hit piece, and they are going after me hard. They got the facts wrong, mixed up the dates, and more. They are really trying.”

“我正在从朋友与同事那里收到味精，他们对WSJ的诽谤性文章感到惊讶（再次）。认识我的人知道这不是真的。那些没有……的人……好吧……好吧。这是一个热门歌曲，他们很难追随我。

Sun, who is also known for his role as the founder of the cryptocurrency project TRON, reacted to the report on April 11.

Sun还以他作为加密货币项目Tron的创始人的角色而闻名，他于4月11日对报告做出了反应。

“I am not aware of the circulation rumors on the Internet about me being a witness in a case settled by a third party with the U.S. government. To the best of knowledge, it is not true. I have a good relationship with the government and cooperate fully with the relevant agencies.”

“我不知道互联网上的发行谣言是关于我在第三方与美国政府定居的案件中成为证人。据《最好的知识》，这是不正确的。我与政府有良好的关系，并与相关机构完全合作。”

Sun added that he holds “great respect” for CZ, calling him a “mentor and close friend.”

Sun补充说，他对CZ表示“极大的尊重”，称他为“导师和密友”。
