DJT pardoned the founder of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance on Thursday. He had been sentenced to a prison term and paid $4.3bn to settle DOJ/SEC allegations of failing to report over 100,000 suspicious transactions, including those involving US-designated terrorist groups including al-Qaida and Hamas. It’s more easing of scrutiny on crypto at a time when DT and family are building their own multibillion dollar crypto empire. Representatives from Trump’s family crypto business have held talks with Binance about taking a stake in the US arm of the exchange.
