In 2023, he pleaded guilty to anti-money laundering violations, serving a 4-month prison sentence to protect Binance. He chose not to sell his $16 billion stake in Terra during its collapse, aligning with his principle of not harming users.

    Vikings' J.J. McCarthy's Future Uncertain Amid QB Battle and Injury

    Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy has struggled in the preseason, raising concerns about his future with the team. He has not led any drives to a touchdown and has shown indecision and inaccuracy. Former Vikings GM Jeff Diamond believes the team should not give up on McCarthy yet, but his position is uncertain as he is splitting second-team reps with Carson Wentz. McCarthy missed the preseason finale against the Broncos due to an ankle injury, further complicating his status. His comfort with being QB3 could dictate his future in Minnesota, with some insiders predicting he may not make the final 53-man roster. The Dolphins are reportedly a team to watch in McCarthy rumors, as they may be interested in acquiring him if he becomes available.
