Thangpeng “CZ” Zhao today denied reporting of discussions about potential deals involving President Trump’s family and Binance, saying that the Wall Street Journal article contains inaccurate information.
“There was no discussion about what we were going to trade… well, anyone,” CZ wrote to X, responding to what he described as an extensive inquiry from the media.
The former CEO of Binance said that over 20 people had been contacted by WSJ and another media outlet to notify him to confirm “whether they had made any deals for the pardon.”
CZ suggested that the article “appears to be motivated as an attack on the president and the cryptocurrency,” adding that “the rest of the power of the ‘cryptography war’ from the last administration is still at work.”
The founder of Crypto Exchange said he was “the only in US history to be sentenced to prison on a single BSA charge,” as he faces prison time after pleading guilty to violating US money laundering requirements.
“Feets wouldn’t mind pardoning,” CZ added, but “he has expressed his commitment to making codes great, both in us and anywhere in the world.”
