Well, stop the press: Anthony Pompliano (yes, the same Pompliano whose X feed is basically part news and part energy drink), has dropped an exclusive nugget from his chat with none other than ex-Binance chief Changpeng Zhao—aka CZ. I do hope you’re reclined in a comfy chair for this, because it is, as Pompliano delicately puts it, “insane.”
From Trading Coins to Trading Snores With a Double Murderer
According to our crypto oracle CZ, when he landed in federal prison in May 2024 (not the holiday destination he had in mind, I wager), he was greeted by a robust sorting system: everyone got put together based on their ethnicity. Asians, Pacific Islanders, and Native Americans—one big involuntary sleepover squad. Supposedly to prevent brawls, but the whole thing reads like a misguided attempt at house-sorting in Hogwarts gone very, very wrong.
The comedy continued. CZ’s debut roommate? Oh, just a double murderer. Yes, really. Literal two-birds-with-one-stone type. Serving 30 years but apparently on the “good behavior = get out faster” track (how does that work, by the way? No mass killings at breakfast equals two years off?).
The true highlight: First night, the cellmate’s snoring could wake the dead (potentially more of CZ’s cellie’s former acquaintances). CZ briefly considered giving him a gentle, possibly life-preserving kick, then remembered who he was dealing with and decided to just embrace the lullabies of doom. Growth!
Pompliano summed up the whole surrealism on X (for those still calling it Twitter: keep up), marveling that one minute you’re running the world’s glitziest crypto exchange, next you’re counting sheep while your cellmate is probably counting how many people he’s killed. Modern entrepreneurship, folks—cover letters and pitch decks just don’t include this stuff.
Imagine being @cz_binance … you are one of the most successful entrepreneurs of our lifetime and next thing you know your cellmate is a double murderer.
Insane.

In case you missed last season’s cliffhanger: CZ did four months inside from May to October last year, all because of those awkward U.S. security and anti-money laundering hiccups. Billions in fines flew out the window, CZ handed over his Binance CEO badge (for life, no second chances—take note, serial job applicants), and Richard Teng is now captaining the crypto ship. As for CZ, hopefully he’s somewhere soundproof now, dreaming sweet, snore-free dreams. 😅
