@cz_binance @masason Today, I saw my old friend and also my first boss in my career—Masayoshi Son—acquire a 40% stake in Binance Japan through SoftBank. Honestly, I’m not surprised at all. Masayoshi Son has always focused on era-defining industries: back in the day, he invested in Alibaba and global tech unicorns with us, and now he’s embracing Binance. This shows that the hype around digital assets, Web3, and Chinese memes isn’t just “short-term speculation”—it’s a real move by global capital. Binance has been ridiculously popular in the Chinese-speaking world lately. He Yi’s phrase “Binance Life” ignited the market, the meme sector exploded across the board, and now SoftBank is stepping into the Japanese market. What I see behind all this is— Capital validating consensus, emotions fueling trends, regulatory landscapes reshuffling, and the Asian market officially taking a seat at the table. I know Masayoshi Son too well: he doesn’t chase the trend; he buys the gateway to the trend. Binance is that gateway. @cz, with this move, the Asian chessboard is fully activated.
