How CZ Changed The Industry
As the founder and CEO of the world's biggest exchange, Binance, CZ has a massive influence on the industry. Binance achieved a rate of $500 million in daily transaction volume in just three months. Today, it does nearly $19 billion in daily transactions. CZ's leadership and influence have helped Binance become a seamless on-ramp to the Web3 space while driving solutions like the BNB Chain, which is currently running over 4 million daily transactions.
Binance has taken global regulatory compliance while maintaining Binance's decentralized status. Binance set the pace for the industry by incorporating Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations. With the expansion of the newly branded BNB Chain, CZ continues to blaze a new path expanding the capabilities of blockchain projects on the chain and with new projects like the Binance NFT Marketplace. BNB Chain became the first to incorporate the concept of Soul-Bound Tokens with the BAB token, which makes it easier to validate users' cross-chain and rewards positive participants in the community.
CZ is an innovator and a leader to help inspire the industry during the down market. Recently, Zhao said in a blog post, "When times are good, Binancians BUIDL. When times are challenging, Binancians BUIDL even more." That is precisely the spirit of the Future of Crypto show and why we feel Zhao would be such an asset to the December events.
Benzinga will give a platform and voice to some of the most extraordinary individuals in the space at this December's Future of Crypto and Fintech Awards events. Tickets are still available.
