U.S. District Judge Richard Jones in Seattle has approved plea deals agreed by U.S. prosecutors, Binance Holdings, and its former chief Changpeng Zhao. Zhao pleaded guilty to violating the Bank Secrecy Act. The judge has ruled that Zhao must stay in the U.S. until his sentencing in February for violating U.S. anti-money laundering laws. The ruling was based on the government's motion, citing Zhao's wealth and lack of U.S. ties as reasons for his restriction. The plea agreement and sentencing are related to criminal charges and anti-money laundering violations.
