PANews reported on May 7 that according to Bloomberg, with the surge in pardon cases during Trump's second term, many people in the crypto industry, including FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried, Binance co-founder Zhao Changpeng (CZ), and early Bitcoin evangelist Roger Ver, are actively seeking pardons from the White House. Some people have sought opportunities through donations, social media campaigns, and lawyers' fees of up to millions of dollars. It was revealed that Roger Ver has hired lawyers and lobbyists who are close to Trump, and the Sam Bankman-Fried family has also hired lawyers in the Republican circle to submit pardon applications. Trump has pardoned or commuted the sentences of 1,600 people, exceeding the total number in his first term.
