The lawmakers cited reports alleging large sums moved through Binance to terrorist groups and sanctions evaders, and raised concerns about the exchange's ties to the Trump-linked USD1 stablecoin and a related $2 billion investment. The letter also referenced Binance founder Changpeng Zhao's 2023 guilty plea and subsequent pardon by President Trump. Neither the Treasury Department nor the Justice Department has publicly responded to the senators' request.
World Liberty Financial has launched a real-time proof-of-reserves system for its USD1 stablecoin, using Chainlink's Runtime Environment to pull reserve data from BitGo and store it on-chain continuously, replacing its previous monthly attestation reports.
