On July 26, some Binance fans shared their expectations on the X platform that Binance founder Changpeng Zhao is scheduled to complete his sentence on August 30. However, a fact check shows that he will not actually be released on this date. Back on April 30, U.S. District Judge Richard Jones sentenced Changpeng Zhao to four months in a Seattle prison and recommended that he be sent to the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport Prison (Seatac). The decision initially led to widespread speculation that if Zhao Changpeng were to be imprisoned immediately, August 30 should be the date of his release. But Zhao Changpeng's legal team actively intervened to buy him more free time. Their efforts resulted in Zhao's imprisonment being delayed until late May, and instead of moving to Seatac as originally planned, he was transferred to FCI Lompoc II, a low-security federal prison three hours north of Los Angeles.
Currently, according to a check of the Bureau of Prisons database, Zhao Changpeng is indeed in FCI Lompoc II. As for his exact release date, unless the situation changes, it has been determined to be September 29, not August 30, which was previously widely circulated.
