Justin Sun responded to WSJ: I don’t know about the rumors. CZ is my mentor and friend, and also my benefactor.

Mars Finance News: Justin Sun responded to the Wall Street Journal report on X, stating: "I am not aware of the rumors currently circulating online. CZ is my mentor and benefactor who provided me with attention, guidance, and direction during my entrepreneurial journey! To this day, his principles and style remain the highest standard I pursue as an entrepreneur. At the same time, the U.S. Department of Justice has been one of our T3FCU's closest and most trusted partners. We have worked together to handle numerous important cases aimed at protecting global users and punishing criminal groups worldwide. Whether it's CZ or the Department of Justice's partners, we have always maintained direct and candid communication. I have complete trust in each of them. Under President Trump's wise crypto policy leadership, the U.S. crypto industry will undoubtedly achieve greater success. As one of the earliest cryptocurrencies chosen by the president, TRX will also be a beneficiary of this success." Previously, the Wall Street Journal reported that CZ had agreed to provide evidence to prosecutors regarding Justin Sun's financial crimes during his plea.
