Crypto giants clash with political forces! CZ meets with Trump-associated projects, SEC regulation faces a trust crisis. The meeting between crypto giants and political forces raises concerns about the SEC's independence!

Recently, a significant piece of news emerged in the cryptocurrency sector. The Trump family's crypto project, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), announced on the X platform that its founders Zach Witkoff, Zak Folkman, and WatcherChase successfully met with Binance founder Changpeng Zhao in Abu Dhabi. The two parties discussed key topics such as promoting the globalization of cryptocurrency and setting new industry standards, aiming to expand the development space for the cryptocurrency industry.

Changpeng Zhao himself also posted to confirm the meeting that day with Zach Witkoff and Bilal Bin Saqib, and he preemptively addressed potential negative reports, stating that he would continue to focus on building without external interference.

This meeting comes at a time when the Trump family's crypto business is making frequent moves, and a series of developments have sparked market scrutiny over the independence of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Eric Trump, the son of Trump, plans to attend the Token2049 conference alongside Sun Yuchen and World Liberty Financial co-founder Zack Witkoff, and Trump's TRUMP dinner plans are also progressing. This series of events puts significant pressure on the SEC; if it grants special treatment to digital asset projects closely related to politics, it will inevitably raise questions about its fairness, posing a severe challenge for the newly appointed chairman, Paul Atkins.
