Binance founder Changpeng Zhao says that Binance is not looking to receive a refund of fines paid as part of its 2023 settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice following his recent presidential pardon.
“Ah, delicate question,” Zhao, who is the former Binance CEO, said Monday on X in response to the question from author and blockchain adviser Anndy Lian. “I appreciate the pardon already. There is a balance in asking for more vs ‘what is fair’ vs appreciate what you got already.”
