Zhao’s fortune is just below that of Larry Ellison and above that of Mukesh Ambani. The ascent of Zhao is emblematic of the rapid creation of wealth and that too in the fast-moving world of digital currencies. Zhao launched Binance in 2017, making it into one of the world’s largest crypto exchanges.
