Binance’s CZ and Yi He Star in AI-Generated Deepfake Dramas Flooding Crypto Twitter

Highly realistic, AI-generated deepfake videos portraying former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) and co-founder Yi He, styled as dramatic "internal affairs" mini-series, are proliferating across Crypto Twitter. While many users acknowledge the clips as satire, their high quality, featuring lifelike avatars and voices, has surprised the community. The videos lightly reference the professional and personal dynamic between Zhao and Yi He but focus on imagined corporate tensions. This trend occurs amid a significant surge in AI-driven deepfake content targeting the crypto sector, which Chainalysis reported saw a 1,400% increase in impersonation scams in 2025. Although these specific Binance videos seem intended for entertainment, their realism highlights the growing risk that similar technology could be weaponized for market manipulation or fraud, pressuring the industry to improve digital literacy.
