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

AI-generated deepfake videos portraying former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao and Yi He have flooded Crypto Twitter. This has sparked debate over how far artificial intelligence has advanced in replicating real crypto figures.

The short videos, styled as dramatic “internal affairs” mini-series, use highly realistic AI avatars modeled on Zhao and Yi He, complete with lifelike voices, facial expressions, and emotional delivery.

While many users have clearly labeled the videos as AI-generated satire, the quality of the videos has shocked parts of the crypto community. Several clips circulated widely across X throughout the day, with users noting that the visuals and dialogue now rival professional studio productions.
