The $110 Billion Dollar Man - Binance Founder Opens Up | PBD #797

Binance founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao joins Patrick Bet-David for a deep conversation on Bitcoin, AI, global power, and the future of crypto. CZ opens up about selling his home to go all-in on Bitcoin, building Binance into the world’s largest crypto exchange, and why he believes the UAE is becoming one of the world’s top hubs for business, innovation, and financial freedom. CZ breaks down the intense scrutiny Binance faced from the U.S. government, serving prison time after the DOJ case, and ultimately receiving a presidential pardon from Donald Trump. Along the way, he shares lessons on entrepreneurship, risk-taking, regulation, and the next era of technology. ------- 📕 CHANGPENG ZHAO'S "FREEDOM OF MONEY": ⁠https://bit.ly/4fb62Lq⁠ 👞 GET THE NEW FLB 1'S: https://bit.ly/4mXV9gd 💬 TEXT PBD TO 310-340-1132 TO GET A COPY OF THE 2026 PBD PODCAST SURVEY! 🦁 THE VAULT 2026: AUG 31ST TO SEPT 1ST: https://bit.ly/4mZdLhD 🦁 SPONSOR THE VAULT 2026: https://bit.ly/4mFBPpw Ⓜ️ CONNECT ON MINNECT: ⁠⁠https://bit.ly/4kSVkso Ⓜ️ PBD PODCAST CIRCLES: https://bit.ly/4mAWQAP 👔 BET-DAVID CONSULTING: https://bit.ly/4lzQph2 🥃 BOARDROOM CIGAR LOUNGE: https://bit.ly/4pzLEXj 🇰 KALSHI: ⁠http://kalshi.com/pbd⁠ 💬 TEXT US: Text “PODCAST” to 310-340-1132 to get the latest updates in real-time!
