ChainCatcher news, according to Fortune, the team of Sun Yuchen pressured its new owner Bullish to remove related articles due to dissatisfaction with the report published by CoinDesk. The article detailed Sun Yuchen's purchase of an artwork banana for $6.2 million and his act of eating it, while also mentioning his legal disputes with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and controversies surrounding the Tron blockchain. After the article was removed, the CoinDesk editorial team expressed concerns about independence.
