{"content":"Crypto Wasn’t Hacked. It Was Bought; In November 2023, @cz_binance and #Binance     pleaded guilty to money laundering and agreed to pay more than $4 billion in fines. Fast-forward to March 2025; the Trump family’s World Liberty Financial (WLFI) launches its own stablecoin, USD1, and shortly after, a $2 billion investment flows into Binance    through a company called MGX. By May 2025, it becomes clear that the entire $2B was paid in USD1, effectively propping up WLFI’s new coin. That same month, CZ admits he has applied for a presidential pardon. In October 2025, he gets it. ➡️ Here’s the kicker: USD1 is backed by U.S. Treasuries, meaning $WLFI earns $60–80 million a year in yield as long as Binance doesn’t redeem that $2B in USD1. So let’s get this straight: Trump’s family business signs a $2B deal with Binance, and a few months later, Trump pardons CZ, the man who ran a centralized casino that laundered billions and is probably the center of crypto-prices. Meanwhile, Tornado Cash and Samourai Wallet developers are still fighting for their lives in court, for the crime of writing open-source code. Ordinary people lose their savings, the rich get pardoned, and a big part of CT is happy and bullish. Again; Trump moves markets with tweets and Binance can influence everything else in crypto. ....and it should terrify everyone who still believes in decentralization. ©️","images":["https://d35imkjvkj28kt.cloudfront.net/uploadfile/article/blog/2025102025/10/25/2120111dce16ec8de6fe4f3140d0277f.jpg","https://d35imkjvkj28kt.cloudfront.net/uploadfile/article/blog/2025102025/10/25/4bdafee5c3625a007859cc449b4c48f0.jpg"],"tags":[],"tradingPairs":["WLFI/USDT"],"quotearticleid":0}
