Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao isn’t worried about the current crypto bear market.

In an interview with the founder of Ox3Production Bianca Chen, Zhao said Bitcoin’s volume now compared to one year ago is one of the keys to understanding just how far cryptocurrency has come.

Zhao responded to the above tweet from Chen, and offered a succinct overview of the spike in Bitcoin’s volume and price over the last 12 months.

Binance is having an incredible year despite the market downturn. In a recent interview with Bloomberg, Zhao said the company expects to earn a net profit of $500 million to $1 billion this year.

The company is pushing to launch its decentralized exchange Binance Chain this year, and recently opened its first fiat exchange in Uganda.
