Binance<\/span><\/a> Co-founder and former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Changpeng CZ Zhao, has been confined to remain in the United States in advance of his sentencing expected to take place next year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Former Binance CEO No Longer Leaving The US<\/span><\/h2>\n

The Binance co-founder has been ordered by US District Judge Richard Jones to remain in the country in a <\/span>ruling<\/span><\/a> on Thursday. Zhao was instructed to stay in the US due to the significance of his recent guilty plea. <\/span><\/p>\n

The ruling read:<\/span><\/p>\n

As relief, the government requests that Mr. Zhao be required to <\/span>remain in the continental United States in the period between his plea and sentencing.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Thursday ruling reversed an earlier decision that would have allowed Zhao to return to the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Jones acknowledged in his decision the arguments provided by Zhao, which ordinarily would result in the government’s motion being denied.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, Jones highlighted the distinctive features of Zhao’s case. These include his riches, the absence of an extradition treaty with the UAE, and Zhao\u2019s family living in the UAE.<\/span><\/p>\n

Furthermore, the judge also highlighted that Zhao poses a flight risk if he were allowed to return to the UAE. This is due to the former CEO’s substantial assets and the meager connections he has to the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, knowing that the Binance ex-CEO faces a potential 18-month sentence in prison also sparks a possible flight risk. Jones asserted that Zhao is asking for a lesser sentence, which might lead to 18 months of incarceration as indicated by the government.<\/span><\/p>\n

The judge stated that despite promises that <\/span>CZ<\/span><\/a> wouldn’t flee if permitted to travel to the UAE, the court wasn’t convinced. This led to the order that he should remain in the US until his sentencing on February 23, 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n

So far, the court stated in the ruling that its decision is not based on Zhao’s citizenship and alienage. “The risk of the defendant not showing up is posed by the circumstances surrounding their combined facts,” the court said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Changpeng “CZ” <\/span>Zhao’s Guilty Plea<\/span><\/h2>\n

Last Month, the former <\/span>Binance CEO pleaded guilty and stepped down<\/span><\/a> from the cryptocurrency exchange he founded about 6 years ago. Zhao’s plea to one count of violating the Bank Secrecy Act was formally accepted by Judge Jones.<\/span><\/p>\n

This Court, having considered the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge, to which there has been no timely objection, hereby accepts the plea of guilty of the defendant.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

His plea was accepted just over two weeks after both he and <\/span>Binance<\/span><\/a> acknowledged a number of criminal and civil charges.

My Bosses and co-workers are the best kinds of people I have ever worked with, in and outside the crypto landscape. I intend to give my all working alongside my amazing colleagues for the growth of these companies. Sometimes I like to picture myself as an explorer, this is because I like visiting new places, I like learning new things (useful things to be precise), I like meeting new people - people who make an impact in my life no matter how little it is. One of the things I love and enjoy doing the most is football. It will remain my favorite outdoor activity, probably because I'm so good at it. I am also very good at singing, dancing, acting, fashion and others. I cherish my time, work, family, and loved ones. I mean, those are probably the most important things in anyone's life. I don't chase illusions, I chase dreams. I know there is still a lot about myself that I need to figure out as I strive to become successful in life. I\u2019m certain I will get there because I know I am not a quitter, and I will give my all till the very end to see myself at the top. I aspire to be a boss someday, having people work under me just as I\u2019ve worked under great people. This is one of my biggest dreams professionally, and one I do not take lightly. Everyone knows the road ahead is not as easy as it looks, but with God Almighty, my family, and shared passion friends, there is no stopping me.\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/x.com\/NFTwerey\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/author\/godspowerowie\/\"}]}<\/script>\n","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Binance Founder Ordered To Stay Put In The US

My Bosses and co-workers are the best kinds of people I have ever worked with, in and outside the crypto landscape. I intend to give my all working alongside my amazing colleagues for the growth of these companies. Sometimes I like to picture myself as an explorer, this is because I like visiting new places, I like learning new things (useful things to be precise), I like meeting new people - people who make an impact in my life no matter how little it is. One of the things I love and enjoy doing the most is football. It will remain my favorite outdoor activity, probably because I'm so good at it. I am also very good at singing, dancing, acting, fashion and others. I cherish my time, work, family, and loved ones. I mean, those are probably the most important things in anyone's life. I don't chase illusions, I chase dreams. I know there is still a lot about myself that I need to figure out as I strive to become successful in life. I\u2019m certain I will get there because I know I am not a quitter, and I will give my all till the very end to see myself at the top. I aspire to be a boss someday, having people work under me just as I\u2019ve worked under great people. This is one of my biggest dreams professionally, and one I do not take lightly. Everyone knows the road ahead is not as easy as it looks, but with God Almighty, my family, and shared passion friends, there is no stopping me.","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/NFTwerey"],"url":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/author\/godspowerowie\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Binance Founder Ordered To Stay Put In The US In Ongoing Probe","url":"http:\/\/www.wncen.com\/news\/binance-coin\/binance-ex-ceo-ordered-to-stay-put-in-the-us-in-ongoing-probe\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/www.wncen.com\/news\/binance-coin\/binance-ex-ceo-ordered-to-stay-put-in-the-us-in-ongoing-probe\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Binance-logo-by-Shutterstock.jpg?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Binance-logo-by-Shutterstock.jpg?fit=600%2C450"},"articleSection":"Binance Coin","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Godspower Owie"}],"creator":["Godspower Owie"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["binance","bnb","bnbusdt","ceo","uae","us","us distrist"],"dateCreated":"2023-12-08T17:00:26Z","datePublished":"2023-12-08T17:00:26Z","dateModified":"2024-06-11T07:54:59Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Binance Founder Ordered To Stay Put In The US In Ongoing Probe\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/www.wncen.com\\\/news\\\/binance-coin\\\/binance-ex-ceo-ordered-to-stay-put-in-the-us-in-ongoing-probe\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/www.wncen.com\\\/news\\\/binance-coin\\\/binance-ex-ceo-ordered-to-stay-put-in-the-us-in-ongoing-probe\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/12\\\/Binance-logo-by-Shutterstock.jpg?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/12\\\/Binance-logo-by-Shutterstock.jpg?fit=600%2C450\"},\"articleSection\":\"Binance Coin\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Godspower Owie\"}],\"creator\":[\"Godspower Owie\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"binance\",\"bnb\",\"bnbusdt\",\"ceo\",\"uae\",\"us\",\"us distrist\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2023-12-08T17:00:26Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2023-12-08T17:00:26Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-06-11T07:54:59Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/wncen.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Binance-logo-by-Shutterstock.jpg?fit=600%2C450","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/564612"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/608"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=564612"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/564612\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/564395"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=564612"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=564612"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=564612"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
