💸 Lost $82 Billion. Kept Building. 💎
In 2022, I watched the market wipe $82B from my net worth almost overnight.
One moment, Binance was riding record volumes and peak optimism… the next, it felt like someone pulled the plug. Prices tanked, $BNB plunged, and trading slowed to a crawl.
My wealth was tied to the industry I helped build — so when the market bled, I bled too.
But sulking never built anything. Losses — whether small or earth-shattering — are part of the crypto game.
Instead, I doubled down:
🔹 Built new features
🔹 Strengthened Binance’s foundation
🔹 Kept innovating through the coldest sentiment
Markets always recover. The secret is survive the winters, so you can bloom in the springs. 🌱
