Changpeng Zhao (widely known to the <a href="https://u.today/cz-offered-to-sell-binance-stake" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">cryptocurrency community as CZ</a>), cofounder and former chief executive at the Binance exchange, has published a photo, on which commentators spotted the Ethereum frontman Vitalik Buterin.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
 Learning at a small gathering of DeSci entrepreneurs organized by Labs. <a href="https://t.co/ebiaI0uRoJ" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/ebiaI0uRoJ</a>— CZ 🔶 BNB (@cz_binance) <a href="https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1856648227572908514?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">November 13, 2024</a>

CZ tweeted that he is currently “at a small gathering of DeSci entrepreneurs organized by Labs.” Vitalik Buterin is standing in the photo with his back to the camera, and it looks like he is lost in thought.
When a commentator asked about the “dude” who is not paying attention to CZ’s selfie, Zhao confirmed that it was Buterin: “Vitalik. Haha. Didn’t take long to recognize him.”

The crypto community looked very excited in the comments about seeing the two mammoths of the crypto space together in the same room. Many began joking in the comments about Vitalik Buterin and Ethereum, hinting at the project turning weak recently, in their view.
DeSci stands for “decentralized science” (following the current trend where the prefix “de,” meaning “decentralized,” seems to be being added to so many large spheres of life). However, CZ did not share any details as to what this event is about and what he and Vitalik are “learning” there. This event seems to be taking place in Thailand now.
This seems to be what CZ has gotten into recently after he was ejected forever from Binance and, most recently, from prison, where he served a four-month sentence on charges of violating U.S. security and anti-money-laundering laws. These charges made Binance pay a hefty fine of several billion dollars in fines to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), and CZ was forced to step down from his position as CEO of the company. <a href="https://u.today/ex-binance-cz-and-vitalik-buterins-unscheduled-meeting-excites-crypto-community" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Read original article on U.Today</a>
