The CEO of major cryptocurrency exchange Binance, Changpeng Zhao, is facing a multi-billion-dollar lawsuit filed by victims of a Hamas attack. The lawsuit alleges that Zhao and Binance enabled Hamas terrorism through cryptocurrency financing, violating international sanctions and US laws. The plaintiffs, including American and Israeli citizens impacted by the attack, claim that Binance's services allowed Hamas to access critical funding. The lawsuit seeks compensation for physical injuries, emotional distress, lost future income, and medical expenses, as well as punitive damages. This case represents a significant expansion of legal action against financial enablers of terrorism.
