Binance Founder Changpeng Zhao Reveals Blockchain, AI Initiative; BNB Bulls Await Developments
Following his recent release from prison custody last week, Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) has shared his new ambitions for the future. In a recent post on the X platform, Zhao expressed his intention to continue investing in the blockchain industry, as well as in artificial intelligence and biotechnology.
In his initial detailed communication on the X platform, Zhao noted that he will maintain his commitment to the non-profit educational initiative Giggle Academy. He mentioned:
“Giggle Academy is progressing well and will play a significant role in my life moving forward. I will keep investing in blockchain/decentralized technologies, AI, and biotech. I am a long-term investor focused on impact rather than returns. Additionally, I plan to allocate more time and funding to charitable causes (and education). I have a few preliminary ideas.”
Moreover, Changpeng Zhao characterized himself as a long-term investor who prioritizes “impact over returns.” Recently, CZ has endured several challenging months, particularly with Binance facing a $4.3 billion penalty in November 2023.
The exchange encountered allegations of failing to implement measures to mitigate anti-terror and money-laundering practices. CZ himself accepted a personal fine of $50 million and endured four months of prison custody. However, on September 27, Zhao was released from a correctional facility in California.
