Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) denied reports claiming he sought a presidential pardon and that Trump’s family was in talks to acquire a stake in Binance.US. CZ dismissed the allegations as false, stating he never discussed any such deal. He also suggested the report was politically motivated against Trump and the crypto industry. While acknowledging that "no felon would mind a pardon," CZ clarified he never requested one. The controversy follows his prior guilty plea under the Bank Secrecy Act, adding to Binance’s ongoing legal challenges. The incident highlights continued scrutiny of crypto firms in the U.S. regulatory landscape.
