Justin Wang is the Founder and CEO of Zeus Network. Wang is a serial entrepreneur and crypto developer, beginning his founder's journey with a VPN business in Dubai, which he successfully exited with $3.5 million in equity. A staunch supporter of Solana since 2015, Justin also founded dAppio Lab in 2020, helping to launch advanced Solana dApps before founding Zeus, an innovative cross-chain protocol designed to connect the Bitcoin and Solana networks, enabling seamless interoperability between the two largest blockchain ecosystems.
