Binance founder Zhao Changpeng released a simplified guide for cryptocurrency asset custody, suggesting that users match security measures according to their holding scale and technical capabilities, while focusing on three major issues: preventing asset theft, avoiding accidental loss, and planning for asset inheritance in advance.Regarding self-custody, Zhao Changpeng advised users to take measures such as storing private keys on offline devices, using reliable hardware wallets, verifying transaction addresses, and setting up multiple off-site backups. He also reminded users to avoid saving keys through photos or screenshots to prevent them from syncing to the cloud and causing leaks. In terms of asset inheritance, users should develop a secure recovery plan in advance, avoiding direct sharing of keys or storing recovery information in an unencrypted form. For centralized trading platforms, Zhao Changpeng suggested that users assess the platform's reputation, security capabilities, and business model, and strengthen account protection through measures such as independent email, strong passwords, two-factor authentication, hardware security keys, and withdrawal address whitelists, while also being vigilant against phishing attacks and API credential leaks.Zhao Changpeng further suggested that users should reasonably allocate assets between centralized trading platforms and personal wallets based on their technical capabilities, security management levels, and funding needs. Self-custody means that users need to independently bear the responsibility for private key protection and asset recovery, while custody by trading platforms involves platform credit and counterparty risk. Additionally, maintaining an independent wallet helps to ensure access to assets during maintenance or service interruptions on trading platforms.

Zhao Changpeng stated that users should pay attention to asset security (Stay SAFU out there) and clarified that he does not oppose hardware wallets or self-custody.Zhao Changpeng added that different wallets and products are suitable for different use cases, and their security implications and best practices vary. He also disclosed that YZi Labs has invested in hardware wallet projects such as OneKey and SafePal, as well as mobile wallet products like Trust Wallet.

Zhao Changpeng issued a reminder for Ledger hardware wallet users to remain vigilant, especially those who have purchased devices recently. According to the information currently available, this incident appears to be limited to the supply chain, involving a supplier, and a few users may have purchased counterfeit or tampered Ledger devices.Zhao Changpeng stated that Ledger is a well-established and relatively secure hardware wallet brand in the industry, but such incidents can still occur. He anticipates and calls for the BNB ecosystem and the entire cryptocurrency industry to assist in tracking the stolen funds and promoting recovery.Previously, Ledger confirmed that it is investigating an asset theft incident involving Southeast Asian users, who had purchased devices through the distributor CryptoBilis. Ledger has requested CryptoBilis to suspend sales and shipments and advised users who purchased devices through this distributor in the past 90 days not to initialize their devices; if they have already completed the setup, they should create a new Ledger signing device using a new mnemonic phrase and transfer their assets to the new wallet.On-chain investigator Specter estimates that this incident has led to the theft of hundreds of wallets on the Bitcoin, Ethereum, and TRON networks, with losses exceeding 86 million dollars. Security researcher tanuki42 previously estimated the losses to be over 72 million dollars and stated that the amount is still increasing. Currently, the specific cause of the incident and whether the involved devices have security vulnerabilities are still under investigation.

A community user posted that after connecting to the free Wi-Fi at Singapore Airport, a "small wallet" that had not been traded for a long time had 3.7 BNB transferred away, and reminded users not to casually connect to public Wi-Fi. The user stated that the wallet had no transaction records for the previous few months, but the assets were transferred after connecting to the airport's free network.In response, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao stated, "I have always advised everyone not to connect to Wi-Fi, especially public Wi-Fi. But just connecting to Wi-Fi shouldn't lead to a wallet being stolen, was there some other operation in between?"

Rupert Harrison, a senior advisor at the global large bond investment institution Pinhao, stated that after a significant increase in U.S. Treasury yields recently, they are now at a level with high investment value. This week, the yields on 10-year and 30-year U.S. Treasuries both reached a 24-year high, mainly due to market concerns about inflation and high fiscal deficits.

A community user posted that Zhao Changpeng released the daily message "Every dip is an opportunity" on September 16, 2026, when the price of Bitcoin was approximately $75,800, and linked it to the recent BTC trend.In response, Zhao Changpeng stated that this is just "pure coincidence" and said, "I am right only slightly over 50% of the time because I have always been bullish."

Binance founder Zhao Changpeng responded on social media to "The Binance SAFU fund purchased 1 billion dollars worth of Bitcoin at an average price of 66666.66 dollars, currently with an unrealized profit of 270 million dollars," stating that it might purely be luck.

According to The New York Times, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao recalled that one day earlier this year, he was lying in bed handling work—after struggling with chronic pain for a long time, he often worked while lying down—when suddenly the window began to shake. He got up and walked to the balcony, where he saw a trail of smoke left in the sky.Changpeng Zhao lives on Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi, an area that faces Iran across the Persian Gulf, and not long ago, Iran had launched a missile towards the UAE.This attack marked the beginning of a geopolitical crisis that plunged the entire region into turmoil, but Changpeng Zhao was not overly worried. He returned to bed to continue working. "More people die in traffic accidents than from missiles," he later stated, "the security here is very good."

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao clearly stated in an interview with The New York Times that his lifestyle is not like that of an ordinary billionaire. Forbes estimates his net worth to be over $100 billion, but Changpeng Zhao insists that the actual figure is much lower, around $10 billion to $30 billion.He said that even with just a small portion of that, he could live very comfortably—only needing $10 million.

Binance co-founder Zhao Changpeng retweeted a post about "The New York Times reporter visiting his home in Abu Dhabi for an interview" and responded that reporter David admitted to having a skeptical attitude towards him, implying that the act of giving Binance merchandise for free was a "bribe." He stated that the merchandise was meant to make people "walking billboards," while still expressing gratitude for the report.The original tweet released by Ram stated, "There are Binance merchandise piled up at Zhao Changpeng's doorstep, and he insisted on letting the reporter choose a gift. The reporter said he could not accept items worth more than $20, to which Zhao Changpeng jokingly replied, 'It's probably worth $19.'"

According to a report by The New York Times, Binance founder Zhao Changpeng stated in a recent interview that he was assigned to the low-security prison Lompoc II in California, which had also previously housed FTX founder SBF.Before reporting to prison, Zhao Changpeng assembled a team of advisors who taught him the various subtle rules of prison cell block politics. One of the advisors even communicated with other inmates, who agreed to help Zhao Changpeng adapt to life in prison.In August 2024, Zhao Changpeng left Lompoc prison and moved to a halfway house. However, due to issues with his immigration status, he had to spend the last two weeks in a local jail, passing the time doing push-ups and sit-ups in his cell. On the day of his release, it took only 26 minutes from Zhao Changpeng being released from custody to his private jet taking off.

Binance founder Zhao Changpeng stated during the podcast "When Shift Happens" that he remains bullish on Bitcoin but denies having the ability to influence the price of the entire crypto market. Previously, on August 19, when Bitcoin was around the $60,000 range, Zhao Changpeng posted that if one wants their future self to thank today's decisions in two years, immediate action is needed. This post was interpreted by the market as a hint to buy Bitcoin, and in the following days, the crypto market rose by about 20%.Zhao Changpeng responded that he does not have the ability to drive the entire market price. He stated that he has always been bullish on the crypto industry, and almost all of his posts have a bullish tendency, posting 5 to 10 times a day, so it is not surprising that one of his posts coincidentally appeared before positive news.Zhao Changpeng mentioned that about 5 hours after the post was published, Trump gave a relatively positive speech about the crypto industry, mentioning the push for Hyperliquid to enter the U.S. market, but he did not know the content of the speech in advance. He emphasized that if he had any information that could affect the market, he would not post about it. Therefore, the post and the subsequent market rise were merely a coincidence in timing.Regarding the Bitcoin cycle, Zhao Changpeng stated that the crypto market has roughly followed a four-year cycle to date. At that time, some speculated that Bitcoin might bottom out in October, but he believes there is no need to wait until October to express a bullish view.

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao stated during his appearance on the podcast "When Shift Happens" that he does not oppose Hyperliquid and welcomes more centralized and decentralized trading platforms to participate in innovation, as the industry is far from saturated. He estimates that the proportion of the population holding some form of cryptocurrency is about 5% to 15%, but when calculated based on individual wealth allocation, the penetration rate of cryptocurrency assets may be less than 1%, indicating that the industry is still in its early stages.Changpeng Zhao mentioned that some members of the Hyperliquid community are trying to establish their own community by criticizing centralized trading platforms and Binance, but he views this as normal competition and does not oppose the project. Previously, Trump mentioned Hyperliquid, which is very good for the industry. Assets like HYPE, BNB, and Bitcoin could all benefit from the overall growth of the industry.Changpeng Zhao also pointed out that first movers do not necessarily become the long-term biggest winners. Google, Facebook, and Binance were not the first products in their respective fields, and later entrants can often further optimize based on the groundwork laid by the pioneers. Although he holds a significant amount of Binance shares and BNB, the centralized trading platform is just part of his asset allocation; rather than expanding a single platform, he hopes to promote the growth of the entire cryptocurrency industry.

Zhao Changpeng posted that today is a difficult day for Bitget. He believes and knows that Binance, the BNB Chain ecosystem, and the community will do everything possible to provide assistance, and he calls on the community to stay "SAFU".
