Changpeng Zhao, founder and CEO of Binance, attends the Viva Technology conference dedicated to innovation and startups at Porte de Versailles exhibition center in Paris on June 16, 2022. The criminal sentencing of Binance founder Changpeng Zhao on a money laundering rule charge has been postponed until April 30, according to a notice Monday in Seattle federal court. That docket entry did not explain what would be a two-month delay in sentencing Zhao, a Canadian national widely known as "CZ" who is free on a $175 million release bond in the United States. Federal sentencing guidelines suggest a maximum sentence of 18 months in prison for Zhao, but prosecutors reportedly have considered asking for a harsher sentence. Zhao pleaded guilty on Nov. 21 to a charge of failure to maintain an effective anti-money laundering program at Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange.

☆ SEC's whistleblower award decision 'incoherent, and lacking in transparency,' says short-seller researcher in suit
  + stars: | 2022-08-23 | by ( Jack Newsham | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
The existence of Barnes' lawsuit against the SEC, which has been pending under a pseudonym since April, hasn't previously been reported. SEC whistleblower matters are confidential, so Barnes' lawyers had asked the court to refer to him as "Jamie Doe." The name of the SEC whistleblower case — "In the Matter of Focus Media" — was unredacted at least once, as was the name of Grace, the enforcement lawyer. Barnes said in his lawsuit that he wasn't represented by a lawyer when he first requested a whistleblower award. Block and Barnes weren't named by the agency, and the connection only became clear after Barnes sued Block last month.
