<snip> same way they habe been clamping down of other privacy means in which bitcoiner can use to achieve thier goals, i don't wa t to mention the keyword bit we all know about the recent ban thst took effect since January 1st of this year 2024.
I'm struggling to understand your post. Firstly you put binance in the same bunch as privacy services and go on to talk about the privacy risks of using it. What's happening to Binance has nothing to do with reducing privacy of bitcoin users, it's a criminal investigation.
CZ pleaded guilty to the charges, aided be investigation and binance has greed to pay fines to the tune of $4 billion, hence the lighter sentence.
I think that jail time, even though it is only 4 months has significant implications. In my country, several restrictions are placed on people with a criminal record.
Seeing that it was a financial crime, he might not be able to get work in a company in a financial capacity or form part of the executive board on certain commitees etc.
There might also be restrictions when it comes to the ownership of a firearm and/or immigrating to certain countries.
