Covered people

Section titled “Covered people”
  • Changpeng Zhao (CZ): included as a co-founder of Binance. This wiki does not automatically equate founding a company with being the sole founder of a related network.
  • Da Hongfei: a named early investor/advisor in Binance’s 2017 white paper; a later Neo report also confirms a project-level early investment in Binance. That launch-era Binance and BNB relationship does not make Da a founder or controller of BNB Chain.

Editorial distinction

Section titled “Editorial distinction”

Networks, companies, foundations, and open-source communities are different entities. Their relationships to people are labeled separately to avoid conflating participation, sponsorship, co-founding, and founding.
