Dubai

Binance Blockchain Week offered the crypto community a memorable and immersive experience during its second day in Dubai. 
Apart from important speakers who addressed key Web3 and blockchain subjects on the two stages, Binance’s co-founder Changpeng Zhao, took the stage to deliver final remarks, wrapping up day 2 of the event. 
Crypto.ro was present at the meeting with CZ, and below, you can see the most important highlights of the discussion.

Changpeng Zhao took the stage at 3:55 pm Dubai local time and discussed interesting topics with Altcoin Daily’s founder and host of the event, Austin Arnold. 
CZ briefly<a href="https://x.com/cryptoro/status/1851959672804123112" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> addressed</a> his time in prison, joking that he was a “prison consultant,” and one of the guardians even asked him what tokens should he buy. 
Binance’s co-founder said that he’s currently focused on two main issues: education and investment, including blockchain, AI, and life science. 
When he was asked which project or sector he believed would see huge success in the long run, he didn’t offer a specific answer, <a href="https://x.com/cryptoro/status/1851960762220118209" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">saying</a> that it’s difficult to make predictions. 
However, he gave an example saying that back in 2017, he couldn’t have predicted the boom in ICOs, for instance, and he believes that small sectors and projects that integrate AI into blockchain will probably succeed.

<h2 id="what-s-next-for-cz">What’s Next for CZ?</h2> 
When CZ was asked about future plans and projects, he said that at the moment, he spends half of his time working at the Giggle Academy, working hard to deliver an impactful project, although not very profitable in t terms of money. 
He explained once more that Giggle Academy is an education platform delivered digitally for people who don’t have access to proper education. 
The project was launched earlier this year, before his incarceration, pledging to create free, fun, and easily accessible learning tools for children all over the world. In April, he <a href="https://x.com/cz_binance/status/1782981541121130901" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">chose</a> the project’s logo, mirroring youth, fun, positive energy, and growth.

<h2 id="a-focus-on-education">A Focus on Education</h2> 
CZ also said that 700-800 million adults all over the world lack education and millions of children don’t go to school. Overall, he mentioned that about 1.2 billion – 1.3 billion people don’t have education and he wants to be a part of the help that reaches these people. 
He mentioned innovative technologies such as AI and ways in which they can be used by teachers to deliver people the necessary learning tools. CZ explained that teaching can now be delivered digitally, and he wants to help people get educated despite not seeing material profits. 
CZ said that with the help of AI, apps are able to teach grade 1 English, math, and other subjects. 
He said that he spent around $2 billion to create Giggle Academy, and considering that the US spends billions of dollars on education, the amount to create his new project is not that considerable but can turn out to be extremely useful and productive for people. 
He aims to teach children useful information so that they can get jobs easier; he even mentioned that his nephew has worked since he was 12 years old, and by 15-16 young kids can already know how to work in customer support, and even code. 
Overall, CZ supports a digital way of educating kids in an environment with interactive videos and animations which make learning pleasant and fun for them. 
CZ was also asked whether he plans new Airdrops and he answered that he’s not interested in getting the project involved in token farming. 
Long term, he wants to continue building the Web3 economy and push Giggle Academy forward. 
At one point, CZ was <a href="https://x.com/cryptoro/status/1851961173974860019" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">asked</a> about the US elections, and joked, saying that he’d rather stay out of the subject, considering the recent events.

After CZ’s remarks, He Yi came back on stage to deliver her speech, followed by Rachel Conlan who highlighted the enduring business that Binance is, and said that this year was marked by the “momentum” theme. 
She also said that Binance will continue delivering diverse perspectives that help the industry while tackling challenges.
