Fortune周三报道，在创始人Changpeng“ CZ” Zhao从监狱获释后，加密交易所二元公司的重新命名的风险投资部门Yzi Labs进行了首次投资。

A venture capital firm spearheaded by Changpeng "CZ" Zhao, the founder of crypto exchange Binance, has made its first investment since his release from U.S. prison in September, Fortune reported on Wednesday.

Fortune周三报道，一家由Crypto Exchange Binance的创始人Changpeng“ CZ” Zhao率领的风险投资公司自9月份从美国监狱获释以来就进行了第一笔投资。

The company formerly known as Binance Labs led a $16 million funding round into Sign, a startup that aims to simplify token distribution and bring verification of credentials on-chain, according to the report.

该报告称，该公司以前被称为Binance Labs的公司领导了一笔1600万美元的资金，该公司旨在简化代币分发并进行链子上的证书验证。

“Proper distribution builds trust, and verification is an essential part of it. As more people move on-chain, this is a critical part of the foundational infrastructure,” Zhao said in an email, according to Fortune's report.

“适当的分配建立信任，验证是其中的重要组成部分。随着越来越多的人在链上移动，这是基础基础设施的关键部分。”赵在一封电子邮件中说。

The rebrand to YZi Labs signifies a shift from being the exchange's venture capital arm to the family office of Zhao and Binance co-founder Yi He, with Zhao taking a hands-on approach in investments.

重塑Yzi Labs的品牌表示从交易所的风险投资部门转变为Zhao和Binance联合创始人Yi He的家族办公室，Zhao在投资方面采取了动手实践态度。

Zhao was released from U.S. prison in September following a four-month prison sentence for violating the Bank Secrecy Act by failing to set up an adequate know-your-customer program at Binance.

赵因未能在Binance建立足够的知识客户计划而因违反《银行保密法》的四个月徒刑后于9月从美国监狱获释。

He also agreed to pay a $50 million fine and step down as Binance CEO as part of his guilty plea.

他还同意支付5,000万美元的罚款，并作为Binance首席执行官辞职，作为他认罪的一部分。

YZi Labs did not immediately respond to CoinDesk's request for comment.
