Staying with Musk and Twitter, the CEO and founder of Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, has stated he is looking to assist Elon Musk in bringing the Twitter platform to Web 3.0. Changpeng Zhao, is universally known as “CZ,” and in a 31st October interview with CNBC’s Squawk Box, he stated, “We want to make sure that crypto has a seat at the table when it comes to free speech. There are also more tactical things, like we want to help bring Twitter into Web3,” adding “We want to help solve immediate problems like charging for membership etc, this can be done very easily and globally using cryptocurrencies as a means of payment.”

Binance have invested $500 million into the purchase of Twitter by Musk.

U.K. PM, Rishi Sunak a Crypto Fan

Although new UK Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak has a long list in front of him regarding the U.K. public finances, the fragile state of the U.K. and global economy, plus the fragility and fractioning in his own party, the crypto world is hopeful that he remains a fan of the world of decentralised finance.

Sunak has on several occasions indicated a confident view on cryptocurrencies and when he was Chancellor of the Exchequer back in April, he defined a plan to make the U.K. a global crypto hub. That included asking the official U.K. coin maker, the Royal Mint, to launch a nonfungible token (NFT) and to bring stablecoins within regulatory parameters.
