CZ: If I Could Do It Again, I'd Block U.S. Users From Day One
Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) reflected in a May 9, 2026 interview with Crypto In America that if he could do it again, he would block U.S. users and set up geo-fencing from day one, while investing earlier in KYC and compliance.
He said Binance was only a roughly 20-person team with very few users in 2017, and he viewed it more as a technology platform than a financial platform at the time. CZ said many of the later problems could have been avoided at the source if those steps had been taken from the beginning.
