Hon Ng, who resigned as general counsel of Binance a year ago, as it navigated a federal probe into allegations of money laundering, has joined its rival Bitget as chief legal officer.

Ng’s exit from Binance followed a series of high-profile executive departures from the Malta-based company stemming from what news reports said was growing dissatisfaction with how CEO Changpeng Zhao was handling the U.S. Department of Justice money-laundering probe and other issues.
