CZ exits Binance leadership after early prison release

CZ leaves prison on Friday

According to Fortune Crypto, CZ will be released from prison this Friday, 2 days ahead of his official release date (if a release date falls on a weekend, inmates leave custody early).

Previously known, CZ will exit from Binance's leadership permanently, according to current Binance CEO Richard Teng.

Binance pre-market spot trading

Binance announced pre-market spot trading, which is “actual tokens,” not derivatives like OKX pre-market futures. Obviously, it's a good tool to balance the huge buying and selling pressure when trading starts with below limitations:

  • Purchase limitation: Binance Pre-Market users are subject to a maximum holding limit of tokens, which may differ for each qualifying Launchpool project. If a user's current Spot account holdings exceed the maximum holding limit, they will not be able to purchase additional tokens in the Pre-Market. (Please note: User spot holding amount include balance in wallet and unfilled order )
  • Selling limitation: There are no limitations on selling.

Binance will announce when a Launchpool project is available for pre-market trading and its start date. Users can continue subscribing to Launchpool as usual. Once pre-market trading begins, all Binance users can trade the "pre-market" tagged tokens. Binance said the pre-market period will close at least four hours before the official spot trading, with a separate announcement for the listing.

Celestia fundraising or OTC?

On Sept 24, Celestia announced $100 million fundraising at https://x.com/CelestiaOrg/status/1838277760789418231.

With more info disclosed, it looks more like an OTC trade with quick vesting, where 1/3 will be free for sale by end of October 2024, and the rest will be vested linearly in the next 1 year.
