Who is Changpeng Zhao (CZ)

Age: 47

Changpeng Zhao, known as CZ, is a Chinese-Canadian entrepreneur and computer programmer.

He is the founder and former CEO of Binance, the largest cryptocurrency exchange today in terms of volume.

His resignation came as part of a $4 billion settlement with U.S. agencies. This decision was made in the wake of Zhao pleading guilty to charges related to breaking U.S. anti-money laundering laws. The settlement and his resignation are part of the resolution of a prolonged investigation into Binance's operations by U.S. authorities

Beyond Binance, CZ has become a hugely prominent figure in the cryptocurrency industry and is widely respected for his insights and commentary on the industry and its future.

CZ is also known for his philanthropic work, including the creation of the Binance Charity Foundation. The Foundation focuses on using blockchain technology to promote the alleviation of poverty globally.
