The Iranian response to the bitter fate of the CEO of Binance
Binance, the world’s largest digital currency exchange, has been fined $43 billion in a Seattle court, as revealed by The Wall Street Journal. According to an agreement between the US Department of Justice and Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of Binance, if he steps down from his position, accepts his crimes, and confesses to the charges, he can remain a shareholder of Binance and avoid going to prison.
The Iranians are involved in this matter. According to documents released from the Binance case, the largest digital currency exchange in the world is facing these three key charges: 1) Violation of money laundering laws in the United States, 2) Unauthorized activities in the field of financial transactions, and 3) Violation of US sanctions regulations.
The issue of violating sanctions regulations also refers to Binance providing services to Iranian users. For example, the US Department of Justice has stated that a total of $900 million in transactions have been conducted between the US and Iranian users on Binance, which is considered a clear violation of economic sanctions.
