Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of Binance, tops the list of richest crypto billionaires with an estimated net worth of $96 billion.
Changpeng Zhao is now the richest person in the whole continent of Asia, surpassing Mukesh Ambani. Ambani is the richest man in Asia before CZ took over.
According to Bloomberg CZ ranks 11th among the world’s richest people as Binance retains its position as the biggest crypto exchange in terms of trading volume across the world.
CZ, the 44-year-old crypto entrepreneur, overtook Asia’s richest billionaire Mukesh Ambani despite Bloomberg excluding his holdings such as Bitcoin (BTC) and the exchange’s in-house Binance Coin (BNB) tokens.
According to Bloomberg’s estimation, CZ stands just behind Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison, whose net worth currently leads by roughly $11 billion.
Binance’s growth trajectory signals a possibility of exceeding tech goliaths such as Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg and Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin.
Currently, Zuckerberg, Page and Brin rank 5th, 6th and 7th respectively, with Tesla CEO Elon Musk leading the billionaires’ list with an estimated fortune of $263 billion.
Remember that Justin Sun once referred to CZ as the unofficial richest person in the world while he referred to Elon as the official richest person during a little misunderstanding on the dogecoin gateway on binance exchange.
Meanwhile, there is still a possibility that Binance might be richer than this considering that nobody knows the amount of Bitcoin and BNB that he holds.
