Boop.fun Founder’s Credentials Challenged by Former Binance CEO CZ

Memecoin launchpad Boop.fun faces scrutiny after former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao publicly questioned the credentials of its founder. CZ stated that Binance never had a Chief Revenue Officer position, a title claimed by Boop.fun’s founder.

The controversy erupted when CZ referenced a former Binance employee fired for insider trading, noting the individual falsely claimed an executive role that didn’t exist.

Cedar Is Coming to Solana, And It Might Change Everything

Cedar, a community-led DeFi powerhouse, is set to launch on Solana on May 6th, 2025, at 12 PM EST. The project, which evolved from the largest rewards-based token on Binance Smart Chain, aims to introduce real revenue sharing, long-term decentralization, and product-first tokenomics to Solana, the fastest-growing layer-1 blockchain in the crypto space.

Prior to its rebranding and Solana launch, Cedar distributed nearly $40 million in BUSD stablecoin rewards directly to its holders—without requiring staking, lockups, or gamified mechanisms. This move underscores its commitment to community-driven value distribution.
