💸💸 Lost $82 Billion. Keep Building...

I watched the market erase around $82 billion from my net worth during the 2022 crash. One moment Binance was riding record trading volumes and market optimism, the next it was like someone pulled the plug—prices across the board collapsed, $BNB took a steep dive, and trading activity slowed to a crawl. My wealth was tied heavily to the industry I helped build, so when the market bled, I bled with it.

But I didn’t waste time sulking. Losses are part of the game in crypto—sometimes small, sometimes earth-shattering. What matters is what you do next. My focus stayed on building new features, strengthening Binance, and pushing innovation forward even when sentiment was at its lowest. Markets will recover eventually; they always have. The key is to survive the winters so you can enjoy the springs. — CZ
