(Background: YZi Labs invests in 17 projects at once — which sectors is CZ positioning in?) (Context: CZ's family office YZi Labs issues "rectification notice" to 10X Capital: war begins if BNB treasury strategy isn't executed by 12/5) YZi Labs, the multi-billion-dollar investment behemoth backed wholeheartedly by Binance's legendary founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) and Yi He, is actively recruiting talent for its vast investment empire. Today (25th), YZi Labs announced on its official social media platform X the official launch of a dedicated recruitment portal called YZi Talent.

YZi Labs has previewed that more portfolio companies will join the platform in the future to release job openings. Born from Binance Labs, a Mega-Whale Commanding Tens of Billions of Dollars For investors in the cryptocurrency market, YZi Labs' predecessor is certainly no stranger — it is none other than Binance Labs, the venture capital and incubation division under Binance. In January 2025, Binance Labs officially transformed and was renamed YZi Labs, operating completely independently from the Binance brand, becoming the dedicated "Family Office" investment vehicle for CZ and Yi He. Helmed by Ella Zhang, one of the original founding members of Binance Labs who returned to lead it, its assets under management currently exceed $10 billion. After the transformation, YZi Labs' investment vision is no longer limited to pure cryptocurrency, but has fully expanded to three frontier areas: Web3, AI, and biotechnology/healthcare. Upholding the philosophy of "Impact First," its current portfolio covers over 300 projects spanning six continents worldwide. The launch of YZi Talent this time is not only intended to address the talent recruitment pain points of startups, but also highlights how the CZ family, after stepping back behind the scenes, continues to exert profound influence in next-generation cutting-edge technology fields through the engines of capital and talent.
