Binance Founder CZ on His New Book & Advice for Young People

# Binance Founder CZ on His New Book & Advice for Young People

This AMA focused on CZ's new book, Freedom Of Money, touching on his entrepreneurial journey, why he wrote the memoir, and his views on young people, founders, investors, and the future of crypto.

CZ said he has no plans to start another company at this point. Instead, he prefers backing projects as an advisor and investor. When evaluating founders, he cares most about mission-driven people who can survive bear markets and execute through tough cycles.

On setbacks and major life decisions, CZ stressed the importance of keep moving, adjusting direction when needed, staying disciplined on spending, and committing to long-term learning.

For young people, he believes the opportunity set today is actually bigger than before. In his view, AI, the internet, and blockchain will continue creating new paths for upside.

CZ also remains highly bullish on crypto. He believes blockchain adoption is still in its early innings, with much bigger roles ahead in payments, FX, commodities, and AI agent-driven transactions.

He added that the process of writing and publishing Freedom Of Money helped him reexamine his own journey, gain fresh perspective on some major events in his past, and find a sense of personal closure.
