Binance Weighs US Reset as CZ Stake Seen as Expansion Hurdle

  • Binance is reportedly considering reducing co-founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao’s majority stake to resolve regulatory hurdles that prevent the exchange from expanding into key US states.
  • The company is exploring strategic partnerships with U.S. firms like BlackRock and the Trump-linked World Liberty Financial (WLFI) to strengthen its domestic market position.
  • Speculation about a U.S. return intensified following a presidential pardon for Zhao, though the move faces sharp criticism from Democratic lawmakers who view the expansion as a political favour.

Binance is weighing changes to its ownership and business relationships as it looks to rebuild and expand its presence in the US, Bloomberg reported, citing people familiar with the matter.

One option under discussion is reducing co-founder Changpeng “CZ” Zhao’s majority stake in the exchange. The report said Zhao’s controlling ownership has been a major obstacle to Binance expanding into some strategically important US states. Talks are ongoing and no final plan has been set.

A Few Options on the Table

Binance is also considering partnerships with US-based firms to strengthen its position, the report said. Potential partners mentioned include asset manager BlackRock and Web3 platform World Liberty Financial (WLFI), which is linked to US President Donald Trump.

Moreover, the speculation about Binance returning to the US picked up in October after Trump pardoned Zhao, as Crypto News Australia reported. After the pardon, Zhao posted that he would help “make America the capital of crypto” and support broader Web3 adoption.

Deeply grateful for today’s pardon and to President Trump for upholding America’s commitment to fairness, innovation, and justice. Will do everything we can to help make America the Capital of Crypto and advance web3 worldwide.

The pardon triggered criticism from some Democratic lawmakers. Senator Elizabeth Warren called it “corruption,” while Congresswoman Maxine Waters described it as pay-to-play and accused Trump of doing political favors for the crypto industry. 

The pushback highlights that parts of the Democratic Party remain resistant to the crypto industry’s expansion and could oppose any move by Binance to re-enter the US market.

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets. The firm now sits 2% overweight on stocks, after money moved between several of its biggest exchange-traded funds. This wasn’t a slow shuffle. Billions flowed across multiple ETFs on Tuesday as BlackRock executed the realignment. The iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) alone brought in $3.4 billion, the largest single-day haul in its history. The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
