According to a report of DLNews, Binance France has replaced co-founder and former Binance Group CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) with two new shareholders, a strategic move aimed at preserving its operational status in the EU's second-largest economy. This decision follows CZ's guilty plea to violating US banking laws last November. He was sentenced to 4 months in prison for his violations and had to pay around $150 million to U.S. authorities, including regulator CFTC.
