CZ: Why did we go all out in Bitcoin in the early days Binance founder Zhao Changpeng (CZ) @ cz-binance reviewed his early All in Bitcoin experience in an interview with Threadguy Channel on October 11, 2025. CZ stated that after first learning about Bitcoin technology in 2013, he recognized it as an opportunity of his own time and viewed it as a life choice rather than a short-term speculation. When it comes to resigning and pledging all of his net assets, CZ believes that the risk is completely controllable, because even if Bitcoin goes to zero, he can return to the bank as an IT programmer with a salary of around six figures as a way out. He revealed that after buying Bitcoin, he experienced a downturn and was trapped for 18 months, but still insisted on not selling. And it is stated that the true belief in Bitcoin stems from a firm belief in future technology, rather than short-term price fluctuations. And this experience of surviving the cycle has made him more confident in the subsequent market. Source: Threadguy
