As if that wasn't enough, juicy rumours have started circulating about a potential new CEO for Binance.
Reports from Bloomberg's trusted sources suggest that Richard Teng has emerged as a top contender for the CEO position if Changpeng "CZ" Zhao decides to pass the baton. The urgency behind this potential succession has grown thanks to Binance facing increased regulatory scrutiny in the United States.
In fact, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) took legal action against Binance and Zhao, alleging violations of derivatives regulations and expressing concerns about the company's compliance practises. It's a critical moment for Binance as they navigate these challenges and seek a leader who can steer them towards a brighter future.
