Quick Glance: DOJ Calls for Binance Founder to Spend Three Years in Prison
- The U.S. Department of Justice stated that Binance's founder, Changpeng "CZ" Zhao, should spend three years in prison for enabling the crypto exchange to violate federal laws on money laundering and sanctions.
- Zhao pleaded guilty to violating the Bank Secrecy Act, with the DOJ recommending a 36-month prison sentence and a $50 million fine.
- Emphasizing the need for a significant punishment, the DOJ highlighted Zhao's financial gains from illegal activities and the importance of deterring others from similar actions.
- The court will decide between incarceration and probation for Zhao, with his defense arguing against his knowledge of specific transactions and advocating for probation due to a lack of risk of repeat offenses.

Quick Glance: Billionaires Profiting from AI 2024
- The AI gold rush has led to a plethora of new billionaires in the sector, as surging values for both public and private companies with ties to AI have skyrocketed.
- Over the past year, tech companies, both new and old, have seen massive share price increases, making the world's tech tycoons even richer and introducing over a dozen new AI billionaires into the Forbes World's Billionaires list.
- Nvidia cofounder and CEO Jensen Huang serves as the poster child for this boom. However, other companies like Super Micro Computer, Advanced Micro Devices, and Cloudflare also benefited from the trend. Privately owned AI companies have also gained momentum, with AI-centric startups alone raising nearly $50 billion in funding last year.
- Major tech giants like Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet have significantly contributed to financing private AI companies to compete in the AI race. However, it remains to be seen if and when the AI bubble will burst and funding could dry up.
