Last year, he was sentenced to four months in prison for violating the Bank Secrecy Act, and now he is finally back. At the conference in Dubai, people were already filling the venue early, waiting to hear his story. When he took the stage, everyone was super excited and took out their phones to take pictures.
At the beginning of the interview, the host sparked laughter in the audience with a humorous opening question, 'How has your summer been?' CZ responded that life in prison was naturally not as interesting compared to now. During that time, he also missed his family, friends, and colleagues very much.
