Former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao allegedly backed a Trump-affiliated stablecoin while seeking a U.S. presidential pardon. According to a July 11 Bloomberg report<\/a><\/strong>, Zhao\u2019s political maneuvering may have overlapped with Binance\u2019s deeper involvement in pro-Trump crypto ventures.<\/p>\n Sources say Binance engineers built the smart contract for USD1, a stablecoin issued by World Liberty Financial. That firm has direct ties to President Donald Trump. The token played a key role in enabling a $2 billion investment from UAE-based MGX into Binance.<\/p>\n Almost 90% of USD1\u2019s total supply currently sits in Binance-controlled wallets, blockchain data confirms. The token\u2019s official documents suggest Trump\u2019s family could collect $30 million per year in interest income from the coin\u2019s reserve assets.<\/p>\n While helping projects linked to Trump, Zhao allegedly pushed for a pardon behind closed doors. Sources told Bloomberg the pardon request was personal and not disclosed in public filings. Binance, distancing itself from the matter, stated that the USD1 listing followed routine procedure and Zhao\u2019s pardon plea had nothing to do with the firm.<\/p>\n Two insiders also claimed Zhao met World Liberty co-founder Steve Witkoff at a crypto event in Abu Dhabi in December 2024. However, someone close to Witkoff denied that the meeting happened.<\/p>\nBinance created code for Trump-backed stablecoin<\/h2>\n
