Zhao Changpeng's Year-End Report: Ten Questions on Binance, Regulation, and the Future of Crypto
CZ, founder of Binance, shares his reflections and insights in a year-end Q&A. He discusses his post-clemency sense of vindication and his current focus on four key areas: Giggle Academy (a free education platform serving 90,000 children), YZ Labs (a $10B ecosystem fund investing in crypto projects), mentoring BNB Chain entrepreneurs, and advising governments on crypto regulation.
He highlights significant growth metrics: BNB Chain’s 600% annual transaction growth, 2M daily active users, and Binance’s 200M users. On investment strategy, he rejects the "horse race" approach, advocating instead for an "open garden" model that supports multiple strong teams to foster competition and innovation.
CZ breaks down stablecoin evolution: 1.0 (basic, non-yielding tokens like USDT), 1.5 (yield-bearing but adoption-limited, e.g., Ethena’s USDe), and 2.0 (ideal state combining yield, liquidity, and compliance). He notes improved regulatory openness globally.
He emphasizes mission-driven founders with long-term commitment and stamina, dismissing short-term profit seekers. On AI trading agents, he argues successful strategies won’t be sold widely due to market saturation effects. For RWA tokenization, he sees potential in national asset tokenization for resource development and notes crypto’s suitability for AI/agent economies.
CZ advises BNB Chain to focus on relentless building, comparing it to a long marathon. His final message: he isn’t defined by his content, embodying a calm, persistent ethos.
