Binance Holdings, the world’s largest crypto exchange, is considering severing its ties with U.S. business partners as various government agencies and regulators continue to investigate the company, according to a report from Bloomberg, citing a personal familiar with the issue.
The move comes amid a crackdown on Binance-branded stablecoin BINANCE BUSD, which is issued by Paxos, and scrutiny of Binance’s transactions with crypto bank Signature Bank.
In addition, binance has been the subject of an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, the Department of Justice and the Internal Revenue Service.
Binance's U.S. customers are serviced by Binance.US, which claims to operate completely independently and says it has no plans to leave the U.S., according to Bloomberg.
It's an evolutionary history that's going to be updated.
