Ex-Binance CEO ‘CZ’ Shares Key Insight as Crypto Market Recovers

by

In light of the crypto market indicating recovery, the co-founder and ex-CEO of Binance, Changpeng Zhao, recently shared some pertinent advice on platform X that’s both relevant and food for thought within the crypto community.

CZ’s tweet emerges at a moment when the cryptocurrency market appears to be rebounding following a significant selling spree during Monday’s trading session, resulting in approximately $700 million worth of liquidations over a 24-hour period. The speculation surrounding the potential closing of the Federal Reserve’s window for additional interest rate reductions has contributed to this market sell-off, affecting both traditional and cryptocurrency markets alike.

On Monday, Bitcoin momentarily dropped below $90,000, marking a 5% decrease since the start of 2025. However, it quickly bounced back. Previously, Bitcoin set a new record high of $108,316 just last month. Similarly, most other cryptocurrencies experienced losses before slightly regaining ground.

Currently, as I’m typing this, Bitcoin has increased by 5.43% over the past 24 hours, reaching a value of $96,605. Notably, other cryptocurrencies such as XRP, Cardano, Dogecoin, and Shiba Inu have also experienced growth during this period. The percentage increases for these coins range from 6% to 10%.

In simpler terms, Cz’s message encourages those involved with cryptocurrencies to take bold steps now, even if they may have missed chances before, as it suggests a new potential opportunity may be emerging.

Have you ever pondered, “If only I had…”, such as:

* Bought Bitcoins back when they were first introduced
* Purchased them during a dip in price
* Held onto them for the long term
* Learned about cryptocurrency sooner
* Ignored all the fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) surrounding it

But the question is, will you seize the opportunity if it arises again in the future?

Remember, today is always the best time to start considering such opportunities. 🤷‍♂️

Have you ever pondered, “If only I had… purchased bitcoins earlier, bought at a lower price, held onto them and learned about cryptocurrency sooner, disregarded the FUD.” Yet, when another chance arises, will you seize it? Today is earlier than any day that follows, as Binance’s founder put it.

This observation reveals a shared sentiment among cryptocurrency investors about the disappointment of not seizing timely investments like purchasing Bitcoin at lower costs or maintaining holdings during market downturns. However, CZ’s tweet underscores that it’s essential to recognize that there will always be fresh chances to capitalize on in the future, even if past errors or missed opportunities have occurred.

Institutional adoption growing

Intesa Sanpaolo SpA, Italy’s biggest banking group, recently took a notable step forward by buying their initial Bitcoin investment worth approximately 1 million euros ($1 million). This move signifies their entry into the cryptocurrency market as they broaden their asset class offerings.

The action is taken as other significant financial corporations are broadening their horizons into cryptocurrencies and the complex market frameworks that have arisen around them.

The world’s leading asset management company, BlackRock, has built up an impressive $51 billion portfolio in its Bitcoin ETF launched last year, and they are actively advocating for their digitally-based money market fund to be accepted as security for cryptocurrency derivative trades.
