Representatives of Donald Trump's family have allegedly discussed acquiring a financial stake in Binance's US arm, The Wall Street Journal reported. Binance's founder, Changpeng Zhao, is seeking a presidential pardon after serving time in prison for breaching anti-money-laundering laws. Talks between Binance and Trump allies began last year, and the potential investment could come through World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency venture linked to the president's family. A pardon for Zhao could help Binance regain access to the US market, while the Trump family would have the opportunity to back a major crypto platform.
