Former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried and Binance CEO Changpeng “CZZhao has been engaging in a war of words on social media over FTX’s buyout of Binance’s investment within the company in 2021.

According to Bankman-Fried, CZ had threatened to withdraw its investment if FTX did not add another $75 million to the deal.

FTX eventually filed for bankruptcy last month, losing billions of dollars of client funds, with Bankman-Fried resigning shortly thereafter.
