Binance founder CZ, serving a four-month prison sentence, promises to continue to invest and hints at future projects.
Despite legal issues, CZ plans to author a book and launch "Giggle Academy" to teach finance and blockchain to underprivileged children.
CZ's prison sentence doesn't halt his influence in crypto; he remains a passive investor and engages in educational projects.
Binance founder Changpeng âCZâ Zhao has completed half of his four-month prison sentence, with two months remaining. Earlier this year, CZ stepped down as CEO amid legal scrutiny from US courts, which accused Binance of enabling illegal activities.Â
This legal battle resulted in a $4.3 billion fine for Binance and saw CZ pleading guilty to money laundering charges. Despite these setbacks, CZ remains a prominent figure in the cryptocurrency world, continuing to invest and hinting at future projects.

In response to the legal issues, Binance appointed a new CEO as CZ distanced himself from the company. The US courts focused solely on CZ, sparing Binance from further scrutiny. This reassured users about the safety of their funds on the platform.Â
CZâs departure from the leadership role at Binance marks a shift in his involvement but not his interest in the crypto industry. He has confirmed he will remain a passive investor and holder in the cryptocurrency space, emphasizing the importance of compliance in the industry.
Future Endeavors and Continued Influence
While serving his sentence, CZ has hinted at using his time to author a book. In a post on the social media platform X, he joked about focusing on writing during his âquiet time.â This potential book might share his experiences and insights as the leader of one of the worldâs largest cryptocurrency exchanges. Despite his legal troubles, CZ remains engaged in the crypto industry, planning to continue his investments and stay active in the space he significantly contributed to.

Beyond his interest in writing, CZ has also announced a new project called âGiggle Academy.â This educational initiative aims to teach underprivileged children about finance and blockchain technology, along with traditional subjects like mathematics.Â
CZâs continued efforts in education and his planned book highlight his ongoing influence and interest in the financial and cryptocurrency sectors, even amid personal and professional challenges. His commitment to these initiatives demonstrates a focus on leveraging his experience to contribute positively to the industry and broader community.
Despite his prison sentence, CZâs activities reflect a sustained engagement with the cryptocurrency world. His future projects and educational endeavors suggest that he will continue to play a substantial role in shaping the industry.
