CZ responds to polarized opinions about himself: Possibly influenced by market trends and other factors Dragonfly Managing Partner Haseeb tweeted, 'The public perception of CZ has completely flipped in just a few months. When CZ was released from jail, he was welcomed as a hero. Now, the public seems to view him as an SBF-level villain. Honestly, both perspectives are ridiculous. But either way, it’s fascinating.' In response, CZ said, 'Both perspectives are indeed ridiculous. Perhaps it’s like this: when you’re released from jail for charges of “no fraud, no victims,” and the entire crypto industry is under attack from government “anti-crypto” policies, people sympathize with you. But now, the government supports crypto, yet Bitcoin hasn’t hit a new all-time high (even though Bitcoin’s price is still much higher than it was a year and a half ago). Or, more simply, it could just be the difference between a bull market and a bear market. Of course, this is an oversimplification. Either way, we’ll keep pushing forward.'
