gm we’re kickstarting 2025 with a brand new name and expanded investment focus ✨
Why YZi Labs? Pronounced “easy labs”, it reflects our mission to make innovation “easy” for builders and founders to pioneer the future.
We’re dedicated to empowering visionary founders and driving transformative innovation across #Web3, #AI, and #biotech. With a focus on strong fundamentals and long-term impact, we back exceptional projects at every stage of their journey, regardless of market cycles or trends.

The AI detection race is a treadmill. The endgame is provenance.
YZi Labs backs the infrastructure needed to scale trust. Thrilled to see our portco @brevis_zk ship Vera.
By fusing the C2PA cryptographic signing standard with ZK proofs, Vera mathematically proves the original media and validates every legitimate edit in between.
Move beyond the age of doubt. 👇
To the women leading the future: The technological acceleration needs your perspective, your edge, and your resilience. Trust your conviction, own your space, and keep building. Happy International Women's Day from all of us at @yzilabs 🚀🦾🦞❤️
.@predictdotfun's strategic acquisition of @0xProbable marks the maturation of the prediction market landscape on @BNBChain.
YZi Labs is in support of this strategic move.
Here’s why: 🧵👇
3/ The Acquisition
The new @predictdotfun marries the two hardest things to build in crypto: a highly composable, yield-bearing financial primitive + a deeply entrenched distribution network.
For the community, this means deeper liquidity, better odds, and a seamless, zero-friction migration for existing Probable users.
4/ The Future
YZi Labs believes prediction markets represent a fundamental reinvention of collective human intelligence. This acquisition accelerates that future. 🏗️🔮
We’re also looking at the foundational layers - like high-performance oracles - that will power this sector.
If you are a builder in the relevant field, find our investors via https://t.co/WpQNRVWRCJ for a chat.
YZi Labs is committing $100M to @HashGlobal’s BNB Holdings Fund.
@ellazhang516, Head of YZi Labs, shared the thesis:
BNB has become a foundational utility asset with attractive yield, powering the future of financial infrastructure. We’re inviting more traditional capital to participate in its structural returns and long-term growth.

Our thoughts are with the communities and individuals affected across the regions. ❤️🩹🙏
We share in the hope for a swifter path to safety and peace for everyone.
$BNC CEA Industries' board finally wakes up to the damning truth that their AMA with 10X is a rip-off needing slashed fees, significantly shorter term, and a real termination provision - precisely what YZi Labs has been relentlessly pushing for, while this board languished in paralysis.
But spare us the gaslighting on "roadblocks" excusing the board's inaction; that's straight from their tired playbook of fiduciary fiction.
Retract the Lies. Remove the Conflict. Total Transparency.

🏛️ Inspiring afternoon discussing the accelerating institutional adoption of digital assets.
The consensus is clear: BNB is the premier infrastructure for this global shift, powered by its utility and the visionary builders strengthening its fundamentals.
At @consensus_hk, @ellazhang516 outlined the YZi Labs playbook:
> The Thesis: Adheres to first principles and invest in Web3, AI, Biotech, prioritizing founders making long-term impact.
> Founder DNA: YZi Labs values resilience above all, prioritizing long-term grit ("tenacity").
> The Core Rails: Stablecoins and on-chain FX are critical infrastructure needed to bridge crypto to the mainstream.
> CZ’s Role: While @cz_binance adopts the "Intern" title to signal a continuous learning mindset, his practical role is "Mentor" -- guiding YZi Labs founders through the industry's ups and downs.
