- CZ focuses on Giggle Academy and investments in blockchain, AI, and biotech after his prison release.
- Despite legal challenges, Binance continues to thrive under Richard Teng’s leadership post-CZ’s departure.
- An industry-wide class-action lawsuit against Binance has sparked worries about the potential for cryptocurrency asset laundering.
Binance founder Changpeng Zhao is coming out of jail a furious man. He posted about his current focus on Giggle Academy, an educational platform. He emphasized the academy’s role in his future while expressing his plans to continue investing in blockchain, artificial intelligence, and biotechnology. CZ shared that he is two-thirds of the way through writing his book and remains dedicated to philanthropy and education.
CZ’s Focus on Education and Philanthropy
Even if Richard Teng isn’t involved in day-to-day operations, Binance seems to be running smoothly under his direction. In addition, CZ received a four-month prison sentence in April for breaking the Bank Secrecy Act. He resigned as CEO and paid a $50 million punishment.
Additionally, Binance settled with U.S. regulators for $4.3 billion, resolving related charges. Despite his prison time, CZ’s sentence was lighter than expected due to his clean criminal record and positive reputation. His net worth of $25.3 billion made him one of the wealthiest individuals ever to serve time in a U.S. prison.
Legal Troubles and Their Implications
Besides stepping down as CEO, CZ is banned from running Binance. However, he remains a shareholder and board member. Some experts believe that his plea deal might allow him to return to a management role later, but this remains unclear. Regardless, CZ has expressed interest in stepping back from the spotlight and focusing on investment.
Significantly, Binance faces ongoing legal challenges. A class-action lawsuit filed in August accused Binance of helping to launder stolen crypto assets. The lawsuit highlights the potential impact on blockchain analytics and asset recovery. As such, the lawsuit may have far-reaching effects on the Bitcoin market as a whole.
CZ’s plans seem to involve less direct management of Binance. Instead, his focus will be on projects like Giggle Academy, blockchain, AI, and biotech. Meanwhile, Binance must navigate legal challenges while maintaining its dominant position in cryptocurrency.
