The recent revelation of Changpeng “CZ” Zhao’s personal crypto holdings has sent shockwaves through the market. While BNB itself did not react positively, an unexpected beneficiary emerged—BROCCOLI, a meme coin built on the BNB Chain, which skyrocketed by 33% in just a few hours.
CZ’s BNB Holdings and Market Reaction
Former Binance CEO CZ has frequently influenced market trends with his social media activity. Even minor statements, such as revealing his lack of experience with decentralized exchanges (DEXs) or sharing his pet’s name, have historically triggered price movements in various tokens.
This time, CZ disclosed that over 98% of his portfolio consists of BNB, with smaller allocations of Bitcoin (BTC) at 1.32%, EURI (a euro-pegged stablecoin) at 0.17%, and USDT at 0.03%. Despite the significant BNB exposure, the token’s price declined following the announcement. Analysts suggest that the broader market downtrend may have overshadowed any bullish impact.
Reports had already indicated CZ’s substantial BNB holdings. A Forbes report last year claimed that CZ controlled 64% of BNB’s total supply, valued at $56 billion. His latest statement merely confirmed that his investment stance remains unchanged.

Meme Coin BROCCOLI Takes Off
While BNB failed to capitalize on the news, BROCCOLI, a meme coin named after CZ’s dog, surged 33% in response. The token is part of a growing trend of pet-inspired meme coins, fueled by speculation and social media engagement.
CZ had previously hinted at potential interactions with Broccoli-themed tokens, driving investor enthusiasm. This speculative buzz continues to generate significant price action within the meme coin sector, highlighting the unpredictable nature of the crypto market.
