Former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao pushes back on a Wall Street Journal report that Donald Trump has held conversations with Binance to buy an interest in Binance.us.
Earlier today the WSJ reported That the founder of Binance “pushed” for the Trump government to forgive him for his guilty plea of 2023 for violating American anti-money laundering practices.
CZ was released from prison last October after a prison sentence of four months.
After today’s report, Zhao went to the social media platform X denying the claims of the magazine.
“Sorry to disappoint. The WSJ article made the facts wrong.
More than 20 people told me that they were asked by the WSJ (and another media): “Can you confirm that CZ has closed a deal for a grace?”
They probably asked hundreds of people to have 20 people in contact with me. In essence, they tried their best to make a story to report. “
According to Zhao, he did not have a binance us about someone.
“No criminal would be sorry to get a grace, especially the only one in American history ever sentenced to prison for a single Bank Secrecy ACT.
It feels like the article is motivated as an attack on the president and crypto, and the remaining forces of the “war against crypto” of the last administration are still working.
I am always happy to make crypto everywhere, we and the rest of the world.
It is good to see that even WSJ thinks I should get grace. ‘
