CZ Changes Twitter Bio to Announce Service
This morning, Binance founder Zhao Changpeng (CZ) suddenly updated his personal Twitter bio to say, “Message me on ReachMe, fees will go to charity,” announcing the launch of the paid consultation service. ReachMe is a paid chat application that uses BNB as a payment method, allowing users to choose KOLs and chat privately through payment.
CZ tweeted that he published an article titled “Pay to Reach” on Binance Square 18 days ago. A few days later, a developer contacted him with a working prototype. After discussions, adjustments, and a security review, the product went live yesterday.

Consultation Price Reaches 1 BNB
Regarding the consultation price, CZ stated:
“I was immediately bombarded with messages. The starting price was 0.04 BNB (about $24) per message, with content like ‘yo,’ ‘what did you have for dinner?’ ‘check out this meme coin,’ ‘which CA?’ and so on. I couldn’t reply to these messages. Please don’t waste your money like this.
Later, I raised the price to 0.1 BNB, but when I woke up this morning, I still had over 100 messages waiting for me. So, I increased it again to 0.2 BNB, which is about $120. I will continue to adjust the price, aiming to receive about 10 messages per day. However, I don’t know if this ‘sweet spot’ actually exists.
Most messages I receive are too short or are broad questions like, ‘How do I run a successful startup?’—these types of questions cannot be answered simply.
CZ suggested that users who want to message him can read the article “CZ’s Communication Techniques” to understand his style better before effectively conveying their messages. Currently, CZ has raised the consultation fee to 1 BNB (about $633).
Consultation Proceeds to Be Donated to BSC Ecosystem Projects
CZ further added that all BNB transaction fees or donations received at his public address will be fully donated or used to support BSC community projects. He may directly use these BNB to purchase some project tokens:
“This is probably the simplest way to help BSC projects. As for other tokens received at this address, I will try to ignore them because handling these tokens is really too troublesome.”
For all the fees or donations in BNB I receive on my public address, I will donate or use them to help BSC community projects. I may simply buy some tokens with them. It’s probably the simplest way to help BSC projects.
For tokens on this address, I will ignore them for as long…
