Binance and former CEO CZ face lawsuit by investors over unrecoverable assets; RFK Jr. suspends, but doesn’t end, campaign: Hodler’s Digest.

United States authorities have charged Michelle Bond, the partner of former FTX Digital Markets co-CEO Ryan Salame, with violations of campaign finance law.

In an indictment unsealed on Aug. 22 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, U.S. Attorney Damian Williams alleged Bond and an unnamed co-conspirator illegally funded her run for the U.S. House of Representatives in 2022. Prosecutors charged Bond with conspiracy to cause unlawful campaign contributions, causing and accepting excessive campaign contributions, causing and receiving an unlawful corporate contribution, and causing and receiving a conduit contribution.

The unnamed co-conspirator Bonds romantic partner and a high-level executive at a now-defunct cryptocurrency exchange, likely referring to Salame allegedly arranged a $400,000 payment from the firm to Bond. Prosecutors alleged she made false statements to the Federal Election Commission and a congressional committee to conceal her and her co-conspirators conduct.
