CZ’s Lawyer: Binance is still under 'surveillance,' and the U.S. is shooting itself in the foot again CZ’s personal lawyer, Teresa Goody Guillén, mentioned during an interview on *The Pomp Podcast* on November 15 that CZ will not be returning to Binance for now. Although his reputation has been somewhat clarified in the recent regulatory settlement, both Binance and CZ personally have suffered significant losses. She noted that Binance is still facing restrictions from multiple U.S. agencies like the DOJ and CFTC. Additionally, compliance is still being monitored by regulators stationed by the U.S. Treasury through FinCEN, even though Binance has exited the U.S. market and has no U.S. customers. She believes the U.S. market is one of the major affected parties in this incident — the absence of the world’s largest crypto exchange has led to a lack of critical liquidity in the local market, limited user choices, and reduced opportunities for crypto projects to take off. This is detrimental to market competition and global development. Video source: https://youtu.be/p1yempiOt5U?si=cKb6ppXHqwN1dd6E
