#AbuDhabiStablecoin On March 28, 2025, a 7.7 magnitude earthquake shook Southeast Asia, its tremors rattling Bangkok’s skyline and altering the course of many lives forever. For Binancians ZQ and DM, it was more than a terrifying natural disaster – it was the day their carefully laid birth plans crumbled.

ZQ and DM are a couple of Binance engineers who relocated to Bangkok in late 2023. At the time of the earthquake, they were preparing to welcome their first child: DM was 40 weeks pregnant. “The baby could have arrived at any moment,” said ZQ. “We were just trying to make it safely to the ground.”
