Ben Zhou Rejects Pi Network

His remarks made it clear that he did not trust the project and preferred to stay away from it.

His strong rejection of the Pi Network led to backlash from the Pi community supporters, with some accusing Bybit of losing relevance in the crypto industry. 

Others claimed that Bybit had applied to list Pi but was rejected. However, Zhou quickly denied these allegations and set the record straight.
