James Quinn Kumar from Binance ANZ joins Sam to explore how Binance reached over 280 million users in just 8 years. He shares the lessons from Facebook and TikTok that helped Binance thrive in B2C, the role of liquidity in institutional adoption, and how Gen Z sees Bitcoin as a new path to wealth in a world of rising property prices.

They also dive into AI-generated content, digital ownership, the rise of stablecoins, Bitcoin’s latest ATHs, and why Binance is betting on Web3 wallets, creators, and grassroots community building for the next billion users.
