Binance Labs Gets Major Overhaul With CZ Taking Active Role in Investments

Binance Labs, the former investment arm of exchange giant Binance, gets a major overhaul under a new name, YZi Labs, with former Binance CEO Changpeng “CZ” Zhao being closely involved in the operations, the firm announced on Thursday.

The rebrand means that the investment firm turns from being the exchange’s venture capital arm into the family office of CZ and Binance co-founder Yi He, Bloomberg reported. Binance spun off Binance Labs into a separate company last year.

“Under this rebranding, [CZ] will take a more active role in investment activities, directly engaging with founders and offering mentorship and coaching,” YZi Labs said in an X post. The firm also expands its investment focus beyond web3 to artificial intelligence and biotech.

Zhao co-founded and led Binance to become the world’s top crypto exchange by trading volume. Last April, Zhao was sentenced to four months in prison for violating the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) by failing to set up an adequate know-your-customer (KYC) program at Binance. As part of his guilty plea, he agreed to hisse a $50 million fine and step down as CEO of the crypto exchange. He was released in September.
