Odaily Planet Daily News: People familiar with the matter revealed that Binance contacted Trump's allies last year and proposed a business deal with the Trump family as part of a plan to return the exiled company to the United States, after which the two sides began negotiations. Representatives of the Trump family have negotiated to acquire a financial stake in the US branch of the cryptocurrency exchange Binance, a move that would allow Trump to do business with the company, which admitted to violating anti-money laundering requirements in 2023. At the same time, according to people familiar with the matter, Binance's founder CZ has been urging the Trump administration to pardon him. He was previously sentenced to four months in prison after pleading guilty to a related charge. It is unclear what form the Trump family's shares will take if the deal is reached, or whether it will be conditional on a pardon. (WSJ)
