Changpeng Zhao: “Bitcoin’s underperformance is due to U.S. law enforcement agencies”

Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Changpeng Zhao, founder of Binance, credited US law enforcement agencies—specifically the FBI, US Secret Service, and IRS Criminal Investigation—with helping limit Bitcoin's decline by tracing and freezing stolen funds. In an X post on November 1, Zhao thanked the agencies, saying they "deserve great credit" for Bitcoin not falling further, according to PANews. He had previously assessed that the price impact of the incident was smaller than the Mt. Gox collapse, but this post explicitly linked the agencies' response to the market outcome. The comments suggest institutional intervention in crypto theft recovery is now seen as a market-stabilizing factor. Watch for further disclosures from the FBI, which reportedly detailed developments on October 31, and for any additional frozen-fund recoveries that could shape sentiment around the affected protocol.
