Binance puts content creators in the spotlight at the 1 Billion Followers Summit

Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by users and trading volume, highlighted the growing influence of digital creators by sponsoring the Economy Stage at the 1 Billion Followers Summit in Dubai.

The three-day summit is the world’s largest gathering of content creators, digital platforms, brands and media leaders. The event brought together more than 15,000 creators and over 420 speakers, serving as a global platform for dialogue, collaboration and innovation around the creator economy and its impact on culture, communities and sustainable digital businesses.

Binance’s participation underscored the central role content creators play in its broader education-focused mission. Creators are often the first point of contact for audiences entering the digital asset space, helping simplify complex blockchain and crypto concepts for both new and experienced users. At the summit, Binance facilitated discussions on trust-building in an increasingly crowded information landscape, the responsibility of creators in web3, and the real-world impact of content on financial literacy and decision-making.

During the event, Binance hosted two panel discussions: How Leading Creators Work with Binance and Create Different, Earn Different With Binance.

On the first day, Jessica Walker, Global Media and Content Lead at Binance, joined creators Max Zaharenkov, Nic Puckrin and Sujal Jethwani to explore how creators across regions and niches build credibility by making blockchain topics accessible and relevant. The session also examined the evolving role of creators within decentralised finance, highlighting how trusted voices can influence financial confidence and long-term independence among audiences.

The second panel brought together Jessica Walker and Shirley Wong, Growth Marketing Lead at Binance, to discuss how digital assets are reshaping the global creator economy. The discussion focused on the Binance Creator Program, which attracted strong interest for its role in enabling sustainable income streams and showcasing real-world success stories of creators leveraging digital assets.

Through its presence at the 1 Billion Followers Summit, Binance reaffirmed its commitment to education, transparency and empowering creators as trusted voices within the digital asset ecosystem. By supporting open dialogue and highlighting practical use cases, the company continues to advocate responsible innovation and contribute to a more informed, inclusive and sustainable future for the global crypto community.
