Since regaining his freedom, Binance founder CZ has been very active, commenting on how meme coins have become strange, and encouraging people to use blockchain to build real applications. Binance has also just listed the second phase of the HODLer airdrop token - Thena (THE), the DEX on the BNB Chain. He also stated that AI is very suitable for use on the blockchain, and used this to promote Binance's BNB Chain. As soon as this topic was raised, the community's attention turned to the BNB Chain, and they are looking forward to what CZ will do.

ToggleCZ points out the combination of AI and blockchain, is it possible that he will personally take over BNB Chain?
"I'm not against meme coins, but meme coins have become a bit strange now. Let's use blockchain to build real applications," CZ wrote on Twitter. Following this was the second phase of the HODLer airdrop, which is an airdrop specifically for loyal BNB holders, usually a temporary snapshot, which is more beneficial for long-term holders compared to the pre-announced Launchpad. The token airdropped this time, Thena, is a DEX with an AMM (Automated Market Maker) mechanism on the BNB Chain.
CZ then pointed out the combination of AI and blockchain, and mentioned Binance's BNB Chain again. He said: "AI labels (or general AI data) are very suitable for completion on-chain. Utilizing low-cost labor on the borderless internet and paying them in cryptocurrencies. BNB Chain's Greenfield can provide storage space, but more infrastructure is still needed."
The author thinks of what Wu Blockchain, the editor-in-chief of the media, once stated on Twitter, that the future of the BNB Chain may still depend on CZ or a figure like He Yi establishing their own fund to invest in projects on the BNB Chain. Recently, he mentioned this topic again, because the US does not allow CZ to participate in Binance's operations, but if CZ takes charge of the BNB Chain, this may be a gray area.
Researcher CryptoCharming: DIN on BNB is worth watching
SuDo Research researcher CryptoCharming also pointed out that CZ's remarks may mean that the focus of the BNB Chain will shift towards AI, and even more specifically the data labeling field. DIN is currently the only leader in the data labeling field on the BNB Chain, with over 30 million users and millions of daily active users.
The data of this project is also stored on the Greenfield mentioned in CZ's post on the BNB Chain. In addition, this protocol has received funding from Binance Labs since the seed round, and has been operating for three years, making it Binance's own child. In an earlier introduction to DIN, he also mentioned that it is benchmarked against Scale AI, which has raised $100 million in the Web2 world, and the blockchain-based data labeling field is relatively blank, which is actually a pressing need for the AI narrative.
