About

In 2017, Changpeng Zhao (CZ) founded Binance with a simple yet powerful realization: the financial system was broken, excluding billions of people from economic opportunity. What started as a cryptocurrency exchange quickly evolved into something far greater - a comprehensive blockchain ecosystem designed to democratize finance. Within just six months, Binance became the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, a testament to the urgent global demand for more accessible financial infrastructure.

Today, Binance serves over 300 million users across more than 100 countries, offering an unmatched portfolio of digital-asset products that span trading, finance, education, research, payments, institutional services, and Web3 features. The company is committed to advancing the freedom of money, believing everyone should have the ability to earn, hold, spend, share, and give their money - regardless of who they are or where they come from. Built on industry-leading security, user fund transparency, and lightning-fast trading engine speed, Binance leverages the power of digital assets and blockchain to build an inclusive financial ecosystem that improves financial access for people around the world.

Toss

In February 2015, Toss introduced the first simple transfer service that did not require an accredited certificate, revolutionizing how people send money in South Korea. What started as a solution to eliminate the cumbersome authentication process for money transfers quickly evolved into something much larger - a vision to make finance simple and accessible for everyone. The founders recognized that financial services in Korea were complicated, filled with jargon, and required multiple steps for even basic transactions. They set out to change this by creating an intuitive, mobile-first platform that would put users in control of their financial lives. Today, Toss has grown into Korea's leading financial super app, used by more than one in two Koreans. The platform offers over 100 services within a single app - from online and offline payments to shopping and everyday lifestyle services. Users can manage bank accounts, cards, insurance, and securities all in one unified dashboard. The platform provides lifetime free money transfers, personalized loan recommendations, credit score management, investment services through Toss Securities, insurance consultations, and even tax payment and document issuance. With registered users including 94% of people in their 20s, 85% in their 30s, and 74% in their 40s, Toss has fundamentally transformed how millions of Koreans interact with financial services, turning what was once complicated into something remarkably simple.
