However, a tweet by Changpeng Zhao (CZ), Binance's founder and former CEO, during a time when the BNB price was breaking records, caused a stir on social media platforms. CZ, who was visiting Kyrgyzstan, shared a photo of himself being assigned a vehicle with the license plate “888 BNB.” The $888 price was a reference to the coin's all-time high.
