In a world obsessed with profit margins, it’s refreshing—rare, even—to find leaders who prioritize real-world impact over financial gain.
Changpeng Zhao, better known as CZ, recently reminded us of Giggle Academy—a free education platform he launched in 2024. His goal? To provide accessible learning tools to underserved communities around the globe. No strings attached. No monetization plan. Just a simple mission: educate 100 million people.
“I don’t care if there’s any returns,” CZ said. And he meant it.
This kind of thinking disrupts more than just the education system. It challenges the whole mindset of modern entrepreneurship. In an era when most startups are chasing valuation highs and investor exits, CZ is quietly building something that could shift the trajectory of entire communities—and generations.
Giggle Academy might not trend on Wall Street, but it could change lives on dusty roads, in overcrowded townships, and forgotten corners of the world. And that’s the kind of legacy that echoes louder than any IPO ever will.
It’s good to see a billionaire who understands that real value isn’t always measured in dollars.
