Changpeng Zhao, the billionaire founder of Binance, has commenced a four-month sentence at a low-security federal prison in Lompoc, California. Zhao, known in the crypto world as "CZ," pled guilty to enabling money laundering through his crypto exchange. This sentence is notably shorter than the three years sought by federal prosecutors. In court, CZ expressed regret for his actions, acknowledging his failure to implement adequate anti-money laundering measures.
