Donald Trump issued a pardon for the founder of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange on Thursday.
Changpeng Zhao pleaded guilty in late 2023 to one count of failing to maintain an anti-money laundering program and stepped down as CEO of Binance,
which paid $4.3bn to settle related allegations.
He was sentenced to four months in prison.
Zhao, who is often referred to by his initials CZ, is one of the world’s richest people and biggest names in cryptocurrency.
