The Next Chapter of Changpeng Zhao: Giggle Academy's Mission to Educate a Billion Children—For Free
After stepping down from Binance, Changpeng Zhao (CZ) didn’t retreat into the background—he pivoted to purpose. His latest venture, Giggle Academy, isn’t just another platform; it’s a bold mission to revolutionize global education, especially for underserved communities.
CZ, once the face of the world’s largest crypto exchange, now aims to empower over a billion children with completely free, gamified, and globally accessible education. Covering grades 1 through 12, Giggle Academy blends traditional subjects with forward-looking topics like blockchain, AI, and emotional intelligence. Built for regions with limited internet but unlimited potential, the platform is non-profit, multilingual, and fully functional offline.
But Giggle Academy is more than lessons—it’s an experience. With personalized learning paths, fun badges, and leaderboards, students stay engaged while progressing at their own pace. What truly sets it apart is its vision: not just patching educational gaps, but laying the groundwork for a decentralized, inclusive future of learning.
“Education is the ultimate equalizer,” CZ asserts. And with Giggle Academy, he’s proving it. This isn’t charity—it’s strategy. A long-term play from a visionary who once built a global empire, now building something even bigger.
