CZ Shares Excerpt from New Book, Binance Coin's 24-Hour Gain Widens to 31.24%
**April 6 Update**
Binance founder Changpeng "CZ" Zhao shared an excerpt from his new book *Freedom of Money* on Wednesday, detailing the exchange’s July 14, 2017 launch:
As the countdown hit “three, two, one,” Binance went live—but its BNB trading page immediately flooded with sell orders, no buys in sight. The price inched down, silence replacing the room’s earlier excitement. Receptionist Xiaofang, who’d been recording the moment, quietly put down her phone.
CZ added in a referenced tweet: *All book sales revenue will be donated to charity; I’m not profiting from this.*
Per BlockBeats’ April 3 report: *Freedom of Money* has topped Amazon’s Bitcoin & Cryptocurrency new releases chart. The e-book drops this week (pre-orders open now, unless further edits are needed), with the English physical edition launching next week. Other language versions will roll out in coming months. The Chinese version is titled *Binance Life* (“no better name,” CZ noted).

Japan's 10-Year Government Bond Yield Hits Record High, Global Liquidity Tightening Pressure Increases
On April 6, Bitget market data shows the yield on Japan’s newly issued 10-year government bond—long a benchmark for the country’s long-term interest rates—briefly hit 2.400%, its highest level since February 1999.
Japan’s long-term rates have officially left behind decades of ultra-low levels and are accelerating toward monetary policy normalization. Key drivers include expectations of a Bank of Japan (BOJ) rate hike, input inflation pressure from the Middle East conflict pushing up oil prices, and concerns over new bond issuance spurred by the Japanese government’s large-scale fiscal spending.
For global markets, Japan—one of the world’s biggest creditors—could see a partial unwind of carry trades that previously relied on low-cost yen financing as its yields rise. This would add pressure to global liquidity tightening and pose potential volatility risks for risk assets like stocks and crypto.
