Binance co-founder and CEO, Changpeng “CZ” Zhao was the first to announce the launch of Bicasso and a 10,000 NFT limit. Within just 2.5 hours, the platform had hit the limit.
After typing a prompt or uploading an image, the Binance AI-powered generator automatically turns the image or prompt into AI-generated art.
After the 10,000 NFT limit was reached, all other requests were sent to a waitlist for the next phase of Bicasso. It was only accessible via web browsers and available to non-US customers.
Changpeng Zhao has been actively sharing his thoughts regarding various matters on Twitter. He recently posted a Twitter thread where he sought to differentiate Binance from the bankrupt crypto exchange FTX. The move from Zhao came after a Forbes article drew parallels between Binance and the defunct crypto exchange.
On top of that, due to regulatory pressure and suspension of Binance USD (BUSD), CZ has revealed that the company is exploring stablecoins pegged to currencies other than the US dollar.
