8 years ago, a guy sold his house and bet all his money on crypto.

➻ The money he put in had no guarantees and no roadmap it was just his belief.

➻ That guy was CZ, one of our favorite super active legends.

➻ And the thing he built is known today as…

Binance

➻ One of the biggest crypto exchanges in the world.

➻ But I am not posting this just to celebrate a birthday.

This is a pure reminder of how far crazy conviction can take you.

➻ We all can learn from his past how to grow in life when everyone else doubts you.

➻ When CZ started Binance in 2017, nobody thought it would work.

➻ Regulations were unclear

➻ The most important thing trust was low and Exchanges were seen as risky plays.

➻ But he didn’t care.

➻ He launched anyway.

➻ Built anyway.

➻ And kept going when most people would’ve folded.

➻ Introduced @BNBCHAIN, Binance Wallet, Binance Alpha etc.

And it doesn't end here.

➻ Let me tell you in short what Binance has achieved so far:

➻ 280M+ users

➻ $125 trillion in trading volume

➻ $BNB did a 5000x

➻ $70B+ paid to users via Earn & Launchpools

➻ Binance Pay serving 45M+ people

➻ He stepped down last year.

➻ But even after all that Binance is still standing tall.

➻ Because this was never just about one man.

➻ It was about building something bigger than yourself.

➻ Something the whole industry could stand on.

➻ Binance isn’t just an exchange anymore, It’s part of our crypto foundation.

➻ So if you’re feeling lost in this market just remember:

someone once sold everything to build the rails we’re all riding on today.

➻ Happy 8 years, @binance 💛

➻ Let’s see what the next chapter brings.

➻ And don’t forget the real support from the main leaders of Binance 👇

➻ I’ve learned a lot from Binance, and I am happy to share my journey with you guys.

Keep building, CZ — THE LEGEND.
