CZ

Dear Judge Jones:
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. I am the working partner of Changpeng Zhao (abbreviated as CZ) and the mother of his three children. I hope this letter can help Mr. Judge understand a more real Changpeng Zhao.
In the spring of 2014, I met Zhao Changpeng at a school blockchain public event. Everyone called him CZ. Unlike the anonymous name used by many people, this is the initials of his real name. CZ was immediately invited to the stage to share impromptu after arriving that day because the organizers found out that he worked for the most popular Bitcoin wallet at the time (blockchain.info). He enthusiastically explained blockchain technology and Bitcoin principles to everyone. At that time, he had just sold his house to buy Bitcoin. Due to the decline in Bitcoin prices, his assets shrank significantly, but this did not hit his obsession with blockchain technology. His speech was full of idealism about how blockchain technology can bring positive changes to the world, which also greatly influenced and inspired me. Later, CZ chose to get involved in the encryption field and founded Binance. He certainly hopes that the company will succeed, but he is not a person who takes making money as the ultimate goal. He sincerely hopes to use technology to promote the progress of the world.
