A digital currency that turns a McDonald’s worker into the richest man in Asia

Chanbin Zhao is the founder of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance, and in just five years, the former McDonald’s chef managed to make a fortune of nearly one hundred billion dollars and became the richest man in Asia. Zhao became the world’s first cryptocurrency entrepreneur, and managed to defy world-famous IT tycoons, including Mark Zuckerberg.

Zhao doesn’t own real estate, doesn’t own expensive cars, doesn’t wear fancy watches, prefers not to appear in public either in private life or in business, and Zhao keeps privacy first.

Zhao was born in the Chinese province of Jiangsu in 1977, and since childhood he often had to get used to difficult living conditions. In addition, in the 1970s his father was persecuted, and since then Zhao has decided to find a way to change the difficult living reality of his family. Zhao was introduced to cryptocurrency in 2013 during a friendly poker game with BTC China CEO Bobby Li and cryptocurrency investor Ron Kao, who advised him to take a risky step and invest a tenth of his savings in bitcoin.
