Reports suggest that the Trump family is exploring the possibility of purchasing a stake in Binance’s US division.
This development follows allegations that the exchange’s founder, Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, is seeking a pardon for his 2023 conviction, which resulted in a prison sentence.
The Wall Street Journal indicates that representatives from Trump’s family have engaged in discussions about acquiring an ownership share in Binance US, shortly after MGX, an Abu Dhabi-based firm, invested $2 billion for a minority stake in the exchange.
Additionally, sources suggest that CZ has been lobbying the current administration for a pardon following his involvement in anti-money laundering violations, which led to his four-month sentence last year.
The Trump family’s potential investment in Binance US and CZ’s efforts to secure a pardon could be interconnected, especially since Zhao is believed to remain the largest shareholder in the exchange. His influence may play a significant role in any efforts to expand the Trump family’s involvement with the crypto platform in the U.S.
