According to records with the United States Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP), as of Aug. 22, Zhao was listed as an inmate of the Residential Reentry Management (RRM) Long Beach field office, which helps place federal offenders. Until recently, the former Binance CEO was in the Federal Correctional Institution Lompoc in central California.


It’s unclear why Zhao was transferred ahead of his release date, scheduled for Sept. 29. In April, a federal judge sentenced the former Binance CEO to four months in prison after he pleaded guilty to failing to maintain an effective Anti-Money Laundering program while leading the crypto exchange. He reported to prison on May 31.

The BOP website stated that RRM Long Beach was “an administrative office providing oversight to halfway houses located in central California and southern California.” The move could suggest that authorities were preparing to transfer Zhao to a residential facility instead of back to Lompoc or another prison.From CEO to inmate 88087-510


In November 2023, Zhao resigned as Binance CEO and pleaded guilty to one felony charge as part of a settlement with US authorities. The exchange agreed to pay $4.3 billion for “civil regulatory enforcement actions,” and CZ is barred from serving as an executive at any crypto firm in the future.


Zhao, active on social media before surrendering to prison officials, has not tweeted since May. Before reporting to Lompoc, he suggested he would work on a writing project while behind bars. The former CEO had a reported net worth in the billions, making him one of the wealthiest individuals to ever go to prison.


Despite speculation online, there was no evidence to suggest that Zhao was “free” following the transfer. The BOP website listed his release date as Sept. 29.
