"Binance founder Changpeng Zhao's endorsement of the 'HODL' investing strategy"
One Shrewd Cat in the Crypto Jungle:
Meet Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the Beloved Co-Founder and Ex-CEO of Binance, the Kingpin of Cryptocurrency Exchanges.
CZ, a household name in the cryptocurrency world, is the mastermind behind Binance — the colossal exchange that holds the crown for the highest trading volume in the market. Born in China and raised in Canada, CZ's journey into the world of cryptocurrencies began with a degree in Computer Science from McGill University.
Before diving headfirst into the blockchain realm, CZ honed his skills at tech companies and, notably, Bloomberg. However, it wasn't until 2013 that he joined Blockchain.info, marking his entry into the crypto scene. Fast forward to 2017, CZ partnered with Yi He to launch Binance, after a successful initial coin offering (ICO) that raised a hefty $15 million, thereby minting the Binance Coin (BNB) into existence.
Binance's staggering success came swiftly, catapulting it to the global throne as the largest cryptocurrency exchange within six months of its inception. CZ's leadership played a significant role in bringing together the user-friendly interface, fast trading engine, and low fees that have made Binance the favorite hideout for traders worldwide.
Shaping the Crypto Community
Innovation was the name of the game under CZ's reign, with high leverage trading, futures, and token offerings being introduced. Binance's relentless approach to expansion, through acquisitions like CoinMarketCap, and strategic partnerships, have cemented its place as an industry leader.
CZ's impact reaches far beyond Binance, with the crypto world looking to him for guidance. In early 2025, he was appointed as a strategic advisor to Pakistan's newly formed Crypto Council, further solidifying his position as a pillar in the crypto community.
Churchill's Witty Wisdom
Recently, CZ's wit caught the eye of the crypto community after he tweeted a quote from Winston Churchill, emphasizing the importance of holding (HODL) during uncertain times. With a nod to Churchill's iconic quotes, CZ humorously attributed the quote to the great leader: "Success is not final, failure is not fatal. It is the courage to HODL that counts."
The Road Ahead
Though CZ stepped down as Binance's CEO in 2023 and served a four-month stint in prison in 2024, his influence remains unabated. Whether facing controversy or guiding investors with his HODL messages, one thing is certain: CZ continues to be the roaring voice of the cryptocurrency jungle.
