What is Binance without Zhao ? If he gets arrested or disappears like people are doing lately in China from Okex owner to the Chief of the Interpol Binance is done for. And
with plans like this, it won't be long.
This is what the article says about the Tai Chi strategy:
The leaked Tai Chi document, a slideshow believed to have been seen by senior Binance executives, is a strategic plan to execute a bait and switch. While the then-unnamed entity set up operations in the United States to distract regulators with feigned interest in compliance, measures would be put in place to move revenue in the form of licensing fees and more to the parent company, Binance. All the while, potential customers would be taught how to evade geographic restrictions while technological work-arounds were put in place.
While I do not believe that US customers need to be "taught" technological turnarounds, yet this plan to find a footing and a legal face for its products within US mainland is not beyond Binance or CZ. For example, while Binance asks for KYC, The funds on BSC do not. A verified user can easily and very cheaply shift their funds to BSC. (Which is basically a centralized network using Binance owned nodes, hence the low fees). On BSC, the whole ETH based DeFi is being recreated and people are jumping on to the bandwagon due to the low fees.
Binance isn't the most legal of entities and a binance IPO is not something that can happen anytime soon. That will not stop CZ from doing his own thing.
Binance is going to list the Coinbase stock in its own version..LOL..
