Binance founder CZ retweeted 0xBeyondLee's detailed introduction to YZi Labs (formerly Binance Labs) startup bootcamp, EASY Residency. The bootcamp aims to assist early-stage Web3 and AI entrepreneurs by providing accommodation, workspaces, mentorship, fundraising connections, and collaboration opportunities with Binance and the BNB ecosystem. Selected projects can receive up to approximately $500,000 in investment.

EASY Residency has now reached its fourth season (S4), with the first three seasons concluding in New York, Dubai, and the San Francisco Bay Area, respectively. The S4 offline camp is located in Bhutan. Each season receives over a thousand applications, with fifteen to twenty projects being accepted. S4's Demo Day was held on August 26, 2026, in Thimphu, Bhutan, attended by CZ and Ella Zhang, head of YZi Labs. This season's focus is on next-generation global financial infrastructure, including stablecoin payments, on-chain FX, institutional-grade market structure, privacy compliance, and AI applications.

The tweet also listed some incubated projects, such as S1's APRO (AI oracle), which launched on Binance Alpha on October 24, 2025, and on Binance Spot on November 27. S2's HertzFlow (a permissionless leverage engine on BNB Chain) launched its mainnet on August 24, 2026, with a TVL of approximately $6 million at the time, and accumulated trading volume exceeding $30 million by early September. S3's TermMax (fixed-rate lending) launched on Binance Alpha on August 25, 2026.
