OKX fires back at Tron’s Justin Sun over mysterious ‘freeze notice’
OKX founder and CEO Star Xu has publicly defended the crypto exchange after Tron founder Justin Sun accused it of failing to act on a law enforcement request to freeze stolen funds following a recent hack of Tron’s official X account.
“OKX also has consumers protection policy according to law, we can’t freeze a customer’s funds according to your personal X post or an oral communication. I think you should understand it as the CEO of HTX,” Xu said in an X post.
Xu said that the crypto exchange had not received any related correspondence through OKX’s official channels. “Our LE cooperation team just checked the email, including the spam box; we haven’t received any request related with this case,” Xu said.
In what is now an unavailable X post, but was screenshotted by Xu, Sun had earlier claimed that OKX has not responded to a “freeze notice” sent to its official email address from a “relevant law enforcement agency.” Sun said that he had no other way to contact OKX’s compliance department.
“These stolen funds do not belong to me; I’m acting to protect the community,” Sun said.
Berkshire Hathaway CEO and notable investor Warren Buffett to step down by the end of 2025
Warren Buffett, the CEO and founder of the Berkshire Hathaway investment firm, announced he is stepping down by the end of 2025 and letting his successor Greg Abel, the company’s vice chairman of non-insurance operations, take the helm.
The decision is still subject to the approval of the company’s board of directors. However, Buffett said he was confident that the board would fully back the decision to elevate Abel, who has been groomed for this position for years, to the position of CEO.
Speaking at the Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholder meeting on May 3, 2025, Buffett announced his decision:
“The time has arrived when Greg should become the Chief executive officer of the company at year-end, and I want to spring that on the directors effectively and give that as my recommendation.”
Although investors have long anticipated the move, Buffett’s announcement officially signals the end of an era at the publicly traded investment company.

Arizona governor vetoes bill to make Bitcoin part of state reserves
Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs has vetoed a bill that would have allowed the state to hold Bitcoin as part of its official reserves, effectively ending efforts to make Arizona the first US state to adopt such a policy.
The Digital Assets Strategic Reserve bill, which would have permitted Arizona to invest seized funds into Bitcoin and create a reserve managed by state officials, was formally struck down on Friday, according to an update on the Arizona State Legislature’s website.
“Today, I vetoed Senate Bill 1025. The Arizona State Retirement System is one of the strongest in the nation because it makes sound and informed investments,” Hobbs wrote in a statement aimed at Warren Petersen, the President of the Arizona Senate.
Hobbs had previously stated she would veto any legislation not tied to a bipartisan agreement on disability funding.
