Zhao Changpeng stated in an interview with Bloomberg that concerns about U.S. national security were sparked by rumors spread by FTX in an attempt to push Binance out of the bidding for Voyager.
"Binance is not a Chinese company and has no connection with China. Although I may look Chinese, I have been a Canadian for 30 years," Zhao Changpeng said. Binance US will continue to bid for Voyager, he added.
After the interview, Voyager's token VGX immediately surged by over 30%, reaching 45% at the time of writing.
"Binance is not a Chinese company, we are not related to China at all."
