- YZi Labs considers investing in a time tokenization MVP using BNB/BSC, allowing KOLs and consultants to monetize expertise through blockchain-based transactions.
- The platform aims to ensure credibility through on-chain verification while reducing spam and improving structured interactions for professional consultations.
It’s no secret that time is a valuable asset. Every moment spent in the professional world offering insights or consulting has economic worth. This is the concept that caught the attention of YZi Labs.
For a time tokenizing project using BNB/BSC as the primary payment choice, the organization is debating investing in an MVP (Minimum Viable Product). Should the initiative show to be safe, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) even says he is ready to be the first user.
A New Era for Time Tokenization
The project’s simple yet groundbreaking concept is based on the platform that lets professional consultants and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) choose prices for their time and experience. An expert might charge one BND for each question they respond to, for instance.
Should the response not come within five days, some of the money will be reimbursed to the sender. While spam and useless queries can be greatly cut with this system, conversations are more organized.
Conversely, this stage also gives professionals fresh chances to effectively commercialize their knowledge. Moreover, with blockchain-based transactions, security and openness are also more assured than with traditional payment systems.
YZi Labs and the History of Investment in the Blockchain World
This is not the first phase for YZi Labs in trying to support blockchain-based invention. Previously, on January 29, 2025, they oversaw a $16 million fundraising round for Sign, a company seeking to streamline token distribution and bring on-chain credential verification. After moving from Binance Labs to YZi Labs, this stage represents CZ’s comeback into the investment space.
Moreover, on March 6, 2025, YZi Labs also revealed a strategic investment in Tensorplex Labs, a distributed artificial intelligence lab aimed at creating infrastructure and apps to quicken artificial intelligence innovation.
This expenditure reveals that YZi Labs is investigating the synergy between blockchain and artificial intelligence in addition to being oriented on the crypto industry.
Ensuring Credibility in a Blockchain-Powered System
Although the idea of time tokenization is not wholly novel, YZi Labs’ method might set them apart. Using the BNB/BSC ecosystem as the foundation for transactions, fees can be more effective than on other networks sometimes subject to high gas costs.
Still, there are certain obstacles to be conquered. One of them is how this platform can guarantee the quality of interactions and make sure registered professionals are really reputable in their domains. As the Sign project has demonstrated, most likely an on-chain verification system will be one of the answers.
This initiative might be an uplifting moment for KOLs, experts, and perhaps the crypto community as whole. Should it be successful, time tokenization is not out of the question for becoming the new standard in online consultation.
