特朗普总统在争议中赦免币安创始人赵长鹏

摘要

唐纳德·特朗普总统赦免了币安创始人赵长鹏,赵此前因违反反洗钱法规认罪,此举引发了关于赵与特朗普家族加密货币业务关系可能存在利益冲突的讨论。

唐纳德·特朗普总统已赦免了币安——全球最大的加密货币交易所——创始人赵长鹏。赵长鹏于2023年因违反《银行保密法》认罪,罪名是允许币安平台上发生包括恐怖主义和毒品贩运相关的非法金融活动。他服刑四个月,并支付了43亿美元的罚款。

此次赦免引发了批评,原因在于赵长鹏与特朗普家族加密货币业务的财务联系。币安支持了由特朗普的两个儿子唐纳德·特朗普 Jr. 和埃里克·特朗普共同创立的加密公司World Liberty Financial。这一关联引发了潜在利益冲突的担忧。

针对赦免,特朗普总统表示赵长鹏“遭到拜登政府的迫害”,并称赦免是应“许多非常好的人”的请求而做出的决定。

批评者认为,此次赦免体现了利用赦免权谋取私利、奖励忠诚和经济支持的惯例。法律专家指出,这一行为反映了从传统监管向以政治忠诚为货币化的更广泛转变。

此次赦免对币安运营的更广泛影响尚不明朗。赵长鹏此前曾表达过希望获得赦免的愿望,并表示他“不介意”获得特朗普总统的赦免。
