CZ: Will not charge for brief meetings, and there is no such thing as paying to seek an opportunity to meet
BlockBeats reported that October 12，Binance founder CZ posted on X, stating that they would never charge for a brief meeting. If they learned that someone had paid to purchase an opportunity to meet them, they would not meet that person, and reminded users not to pay any intermediary or scammer.CZ added that although it is impossible to meet everyone, they often arrange several one-on-one conversations lasting about BBW minutes for community supporters during 5 events, and said they hoped November could meet community members in Thailand.
Previously, X user @thevoid_bnb posted about the value of brief conversations with well-known figures in the industry, citing Justin Sun's spending of 4600000 USD to have lunch with Warren Buffett as an example, and asked what questions they would raise if given the opportunity to have a one-on-one conversation with CZ for 5 to 10 minutes.CZ subsequently responded to the above view, explicitly stating that they would not offer brief meeting opportunities for a fee.

AI-assisted interpretation
The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.
The core message of this report is:CZ stated that a brief conversation with them is not a service that can be purchased through an intermediary. If someone claims that paying them will arrange such a meeting, users should be alert to the possibility that the person is an intermediary or scammer.CZ also mentioned that they will arrange a limited number of community conversations lasting about 5 minutes during some events, but the report did not say that these arrangements require payment.
Why it matters to readers
This statement may help users identify suspicious invitations framed as “paying to meet CZ” and avoid paying solely based on an intermediary's claims.
If a newcomer receives an invitation for a paid meeting with CZ they should not regard it as an arrangement endorsed by CZ personally; they should not pay without a verifiable source.
