CZ公开信全文：这是最好的选择

今天，我辞去了 Binance 首席执行官的职务。诚然，情感上的放下并不容易。但我知道这是最好的选择，我犯了错误，我必须承担责任。这对我们的社区、Binance 和我自己都是最好的。Binance 不再是婴儿了。现在是我让它走、跑的时候了。我知道 Binance 将继续发展并凭借其强大的后备力量而脱颖而出。我很高兴地宣布，我们现任的前区域市场全球主管 Richard Teng 今天被任命为 Binance 的新任首席执行官。

Teng 是一位高素质的领导者，拥有三十多年的金融服务和监管经验，他将带领公司度过下一个增长时期。他将确保 Binance 实现下一阶段的安全性、透明度、合规性和增长。在加入 Binance 之前，Richard 曾担任阿布扎比全球市场 (ADGM) 金融服务监管局首席执行官；新加坡交易所（SGX）首席监管官；新加坡金融管理局企业财务总监。与 Richard 和整个团队一起，我相信 Binance 和加密行业的最好日子就在前方。

作为对我们公司历史有了解的股东和前首席执行官，我将根据我们美国机构决议中规定的框架，随时为团队提供必要的咨询。

我接下来要做什么？我先休息一下。在过去的六年半里，我没有一天真正休息过（关掉电话）。之后，我目前的想法是，我可能会进行一些被动投资，成为区块链/Web3/DeFi、人工智能和生物技术领域初创公司的少数代币持有者或股东。

我很高兴我终于有更多的时间来研究 DeFi。我无法想象自己再次担任首席执行官来推动一家初创公司的发展。我很满足于成为一名一次性（幸运的）企业家。如果有听众，我可能愿意私下担任少数即将到来的企业家的教练/导师。如果不为别的，我至少可以告诉他们不要做什么。

在这一点上，我很自豪地指出，在我们与美国机构的决议中，他们：

没有指控 Binance 挪用任何用户资金，

没有指控 Binance 参与任何市场操纵。

资金安全。

因此，我期待看到新领导层上任。请和我一起祝贺 Teng 当之无愧的晋升。

前进吧！

以下为英语原文：

Today, I stepped down as CEO of Binance. Admittedly, it was not easy to let go emotionally. But I know it is the right thing to do. I made mistakes, and I must take responsibility. This is best for our community, for Binance, and for myself.

Binance is no longer a baby. It is time for me to let it walk and run. I know Binance will continue to grow and excel with the deep bench it has.

I’m pleased to announce that @_RichardTeng, our now former Global Head of Regional Markets, has been named the new CEO of Binance today.

Richard is a highly qualified leader and, with over three decades of financial services and regulatory experience, he will navigate the company through its next period of growth. He will ensure Binance delivers on our next phase of security, transparency, compliance, and growth.

Prior to joining Binance, Richard was CEO of the Financial Services Regulatory Authority at Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM); Chief Regulatory Officer of the Singapore Exchange (SGX); and Director of Corporate Finance in the Monetary Authority of Singapore.

With Richard and the entire team, I’m confident that the best days for @Binance and the crypto industry lay ahead.

As a shareholder and former CEO with historical knowledge of our company, I will remain available to the team to consult as needed, consistent with the framework set out in our U.S. agency resolutions.

What’s next for me?

I will take a break first. I have not had a single day of real (phone off) break for the last 6 and half years.

After that, my current thinking is I will probably do some passive investing, being a minority token/shareholder in startups in areas of blockchain/Web3/DeFi, AI and biotech. I am happy that I will finally have more time to spend looking at DeFi.

I can’t see myself being a CEO driving a startup again. I am content being an one-shot (lucky) entrepreneur. Should there be listeners, I may be open to being a coach/mentor to a small number of upcoming entrepreneurs, privately. If for nothing else, I can at least tell them what not to do.

On that note, I am proud to point out that in our resolutions with the U.S. agencies they:

- do not allege that Binance misappropriated any user funds, and

- do not allege that Binance engaged in any market manipulation.

Funds are SAFU!

With that, I look forward to seeing the new leadership take the reins. Please join me in congratulating Richard on his well-deserved promotion.

Onwards!
