Changpeng Zhao “CZ” is one of the most prominent names in the cryptomarket, the founder of Binance is not only an industry celebrity but a cryptocurrency billionaire as well.
Bitcoin Magazine recently recalled that Zhao sold an apartment in 2014 for 4000 BTC, which today is more than $200 million.

Binance’s CEO corrected the original post, stating that it was just a small apartment so he got “only” 1,500 bitcoins. He also told that out of those 1500 BTC he spent (not sold) around 100 BTC over time.
Minor correction. It was a small apartment ?, so only got about 1500 #BTC, spent (not sold) about 100 BTC over time.

If CZ still owns 1400 bitcoins, it is a remarkably excellent number of BTC to hold, a truly impressive amount that should make the apartment buyer regret it.
