Changpeng Zhao (widely known to the cryptocurrency community as CZ), a co-founder and the former chief executive at the Binance exchange, has published photo, on which commentators spotted the Ethereum frontman Vitalik Buterin.

CZ tweeted that he is currently “at a small gathering of DeSci entrepreneurs organized by Labs.” Vitalik Buterin is standing in the photo with his back to the camera and it looks like he is lost in thought.

When a commentator asked about the “dude” who is not paying attention to CZ’s selfie, Zhao confirmed that it was Buterin: “Vitalik. Haha. Didn’t take long to recognize him.”

The crypto community looked very excited in the comments about seeing the two mammoths of the crypto space together in the same room. Many began publishing joking comments about Vitalik Buterin and Ethereum, hinting at the project turning weak recently in their views.

DeSci stands for “decentralized science” (following the current trend when the prefix “de”, meaning “decentralized” seems to be being added to any large sphere), however, CZ did not share any details as to what this event is about and what he and Vitalik are “learning” there. This event seems to be taking place in Thailand now.

This seems to be what CZ has become into recently after he was ejected forever from CZ, and also most recently, from prison where he had done a four months’ sentence on charges of violating the US security and anti-money-laundering laws. These charges made Binance pay a hefty fine of several billion dollars in fines to the US Department of Justice (DOJ) and CZ was forced to step down from his CEO position in the company.
