A U.S. district judge accepted former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao’s guilty plea to charges related to anti-money laundering violations.

Judge Richard Jones accepted Zhao’s guilty plea Wednesday, according to a court filing in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington in Seattle.

Zhao, also known as CZ, pleaded guilty last month to anti-money laundering and sanctions violations following a years-long investigation by federal regulators. Binance agreed to pay $4.3 billion in one of the largest corporate settlements in history. Zhao agreed to pay a $50 million fine and stepped down from his position as CEO.

step down

Zhao too cascade Last week, he stepped down as chairman of the Binance.US board of directors, effectively removing his influence in Binance.US’ governance and making his interest in the exchange’s US arm “purely economic.”

Zhao has been active at X since stepping down as Binance CEO and pleading guilty. Over the past week, he’s posted about lunch, reposted new Binance CEO Richard Teng, and talked about risk-taking.

“10 years ago today, I quit my job, sold my house and #Bitcoin” Zhao posted. “No, I’m not saying you should do the same. Many people asked how one could take such a risk. Me, I knew I could easily get a job. Everyone’s risk profile is different. Learn to manage risk.”
