The steps after feeling safe are:
1. Establish connections with the Trump family
2. Aggressively promote USD1
3. Complete the pardon
4. CZ returns to Binance
5. Expand Binance US
6. Restart BUSD
7. Binance's compliance entity goes public in the US
The difficulty is like trading in the NBA; if everyone knows you want a pardon, they will definitely drive a hard bargain, making it difficult to negotiate a price.
If this continues to drag on, with the Democratic Party returning in the midterm elections, everything might be unable to progress.
