What a day in Prague with the MVB community! Grateful for everyone who presented and joined the discussion with @BNBCHAIN, @yzilabs, and the broader @CoinMarketCap community.
It was a pleasure to chat alongside @viktorfischer, @cydeologie, and @web3benx about supporting our builders.

For @yzilabs, belief in the team and belief in the product go hand in hand.
@jgarzik @MaxwellSanchezX @MatthewRoszak bring decades of experience — and with @hemi_xyz, they’re building the foundation for the Bitcoin-native applications the industry has long envisioned.
Proud to back Hemi as it grows into its next chapter.
Hemi has raised $15M led by @joinrepublic, @yzilabs & @HyperchainC bringing total funding to $30M.
With $1.2B anchored on Bitcoin, this round fuels growth ahead of the $HEMI TGE.
Investors include @BreyerCap, @SeliniCapital, @BigBrainVC & @cryptocom.

Please reach out. DMs open.
Just quickly reviewed more than 20 prediction markets startup projects on #BNB Chain.
There might be an opportunity for someone to build a prediction market specific oracle.
Not sure how big the TAM is, but might worth a try.

BREAKING: Elizabeth Warren signs a certificate to honor #Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto with a ceremonial flag flying. "Americans are forever grateful." 🇺🇸
Community note
For context:
"Anyone can purchase a flag that has flown over the U.S. Capitol," U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper said. His website, like those of other members of Congress, has a link to the flag program.
Therefore, it doesn't mean that Elizabeth Warren has pivoted her views on Bitcoin.

This must be one of my favourite podcasts ever! Thank you @djrosent and @gilbert for your great and insightful work. It’s a joy listening to these while commuting.
Oh this special and very different episode, we tell part one of the @sequoia story.
How Don Valentine pioneered the new asset class of venture capital, saw the future, and how the firm invested in companies representing $3.3T(!) of market cap.

Keep building!
Today, I stepped down as CEO of Binance. Admittedly, it was not easy to let go emotionally. But I know it is the right thing to do. I made mistakes, and I must take responsibility. This is best for our community, for Binance, and for myself.
Binance is no longer a baby. It is time for me to let it walk and run. I know Binance will continue to grow and excel with the deep bench it has.
I’m pleased to announce that @_RichardTeng, our now former Global Head of Regional Markets, has been named the new CEO of Binance today.
Richard is a highly qualified leader and, with over three decades of financial services and regulatory experience, he will navigate the company through its next period of growth. He will ensure Binance delivers on our next phase of security, transparency, compliance, and growth.
Prior to joining Binance, Richard was CEO of the Financial Services Regulatory Authority at Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM); Chief Regulatory Officer of the Singapore Exchange (SGX); and Director of Corporate Finance in the Monetary Authority of Singapore.
With Richard and the entire team, I’m confident that the best days for @Binance and the crypto industry lay ahead.
As a shareholder and former CEO with historical knowledge of our company, I will remain available to the team to consult as needed, consistent with the framework set out in our U.S. agency resolutions.
What’s next for me?
I will take a break first. I have not had a single day of real (phone off) break for the last 6 and half years.
After that, my current thinking is I will probably do some passive investing, being a minority token/shareholder in startups in areas of blockchain/Web3/DeFi, AI and biotech. I am happy that I will finally have more time to spend looking at DeFi.
I can’t see myself being a CEO driving a startup again. I am content being an one-shot (lucky) entrepreneur. Should there be listeners, I may be open to being a coach/mentor to a small number of upcoming entrepreneurs, privately. If for nothing else, I can at least tell them what not to do.
On that note, I am proud to point out that in our resolutions with the U.S. agencies they:
- do not allege that Binance misappropriated any user funds, and
- do not allege that Binance engaged in any market manipulation.
Funds are SAFU!
With that, I look forward to seeing the new leadership take the reins. Please join me in congratulating Richard on his well-deserved promotion.
Onwards!
