Binance CEO Reiterates Denial of World Liberty Merger, Praises Trump

In a recent interview, Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of popular cryptocurrency exchange Binance, reiterated his denial of rumors surrounding a potential merger with World Liberty, a US-based financial services company.

The rumors of a potential merger between the two companies have been circulating in the cryptocurrency community for several weeks, with some sources claiming that the deal could be worth billions of dollars. However, Zhao has consistently denied the rumors, stating that there is no truth to the speculation.

"I've seen the rumors, I've seen the speculation, and I can tell you that it's all just noise," Zhao said in the interview. "There is no truth to the rumors of a merger with World Liberty. We're focused on building out our own business and expanding our offerings to our users."

Zhao also took the opportunity to praise US President Donald Trump, stating that he is a "great leader" and that he is a fan of his work.

"I think President Trump is a great leader, and I think he's done a lot of good things for the country," Zhao said. "I'm a fan of his, and I think he's a great guy to have in the White House."

Zhao's comments come as Binance continues to expand its offerings and build out its business. The exchange has recently launched a number of new features, including a decentralized exchange and a lending platform, and has also announced plans to launch a new cryptocurrency trading platform.

The rumors of a potential merger between Binance and World Liberty have been met with skepticism by many in the cryptocurrency community, with some experts questioning the logic of such a deal. However, Zhao's denial of the rumors has put the issue to rest, at least for now.
