Serious Allegations Made Against Binance’s Chief Compliance Officer
A recent investigative report has raised serious allegations against Noah Perlman, the chief compliance officer of Binance. The report suggests that Perlman has connections to the collapse of FTX, the troubled Gemini exchange owned by the Winklevoss twins, and even convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. If these allegations are proven true and Perlman is investigated by US authorities, it could lead to another scandal for Binance following the departure of former CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ).
Associations with Epstein and Alleged Fraud
The report claims that Perlman’s father, Itzhak Perlman, flew on Epstein’s plane multiple times and accompanied him to a center for the arts where Epstein built a lodge described as a “lair to target girls.” These family connections raise questions about Noah Perlman’s associations. After leaving the Department of Justice, Perlman joined Gemini as the chief compliance officer. He was allegedly heavily involved in Gemini’s Earn program, which is at the center of an alleged $1.1 billion fraud.
Troubled Bank’s Links to Binance Officer and FTX
Perlman’s involvement with Farmington State Bank, later renamed Moonstone, adds another layer of complexity to the allegations. Perlman was listed as a director of FBH Corp., which took over the bank. Moonstone Bank faced regulatory challenges and was acquired by another bank shortly after. These connections raise further suspicions about Perlman’s role in alleged wrongdoing.
Hot Take: Further Response and Investigation Needed
The serious allegations made against Noah Perlman require a response from Binance’s executives and investigation by relevant authorities. It is important to note that these allegations have not been substantiated by any investigations or official connections made by US authorities or other global agencies. Perlman and Binance have yet to release an official statement addressing these claims, leaving it unclear how they will address the allegations and provide clarity on the matter.
