BNB Hits New ATH. Is CZ Now Richer Than Bill Gates?
Main Idea
BNB's price surge has potentially made Changpeng Zhao (CZ) one of the richest people globally, with estimates suggesting his net worth could surpass Bill Gates' due to his holdings in BNB and Binance.
Key Points
1. BNB reached a new all-time high of $827, increasing roughly 20% in value.
2. CZ's net worth is estimated at $60 billion by Bloomberg, excluding his personal BNB holdings, making him the 27th richest person.
3. Forbes estimates CZ's net worth at $61 billion, with $33 billion from his Binance stake and 94 million BNB tokens (over 60% of circulating supply).
4. If estimates are accurate, CZ's BNB holdings alone could be worth $78 billion, and his total net worth might reach $110-$136 billion when combined with his Binance stake.
5. BNB's low liquidity means CZ cannot easily sell his tokens at current market prices.
