I feel blessed.
Blessed because I’ve started understanding money earlier than most of the people I know ever will.
Blessed because I chose a path that, at the time, was far less traveled, the crypto path.
A path that has evolved so much since 2017, that even today it often feels like I’m exploring it for the very first time.
Starting in crypto back in 2017, things were very different. Maybe there were more opportunities for profit, but noone will disagree that it was very risky and there was a lack of information back then.
I chose the safer route, and honestly, I don’t regret it for a second.
Back then, both me and Binance were just getting started.
Binance has come a much longer way than I have, but what matters most is that we’re both still here.
And that says a lot.
CZ has always been someone I deeply admire. Watching him speak, reading his thoughts, it always felt like a mix of revelation, guidance, and inspiration.
So when his book was announced, I immediately knew I had to get it.
An opportunity to understand how everything unfolded, from his own perspective and not from the news. I would have the opportunity to know more about his mindset, what led him to make those decisions, what his vision was and is now. All in one place. His memoir.
This book already feels meaningful.
Written during a difficult period of his life, and with all profits going to charity, it carries a weight beyond just words.
I’ve just started reading it on Kindle (while waiting for the paperback), and I already know this won’t be my only post about it. I’ll be back when I finish it, with a full review.

But for now…
Here are some of the things I expect to learn from CZ’s Freedom of Money:
CZ grew up in rural China, in difficult yet pure conditions. How did that environment shape him? Where did he find the knowledge, the drive, the vision to become who he is today?
What does “Freedom of Money” truly mean from his perspective? What mindset, decisions, and principles guided him there?
What obstacles did he face along the way, and most importantly, how did he overcome them? Was it skepticism from others, harsh circumstances, that ignited his power of will? How did he manage it all while there was a lack of tools at the time?
Education has clearly played a huge role in his life. With Giggle Academy now a reality, what are his long-term plans for it? And how does it fit into his broader vision?
While he is widely respected, there are also critics. I’m curious to understand how he handles that, how he maintains clarity and focus despite the noise.
Of course, I’m especially interested in his perspective on major events in the crypto space. But more than that…
CZ has always seemed to have a unique ability to see ahead. Where does that come from? And how does he see the future now?
And maybe, beyond all these questions, what I truly expect to gain is something less tangible… but far more valuable.
A clearer mindset.
Because in the end, Freedom of Money is not just about wealth, crypto, or success. It’s about how you think, how you decide, and how you move forward, even when the path is uncertain.
I don’t expect this book to give me all the answers.
But I do expect it to help me ask better questions.
And sometimes… that’s where real growth begins.
So this is just the beginning.
A first step into understanding, not only CZ’s journey, but also my own, a little better.

I’ll be back when I turn the last page.
What are you curious about?
What would you ask CZ if you could ask one question?
