Fraud Charges against Binance CEO
With the lawsuit filed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in June, Binance has come under the radar of regulatory authorities in many countries. Binance’s license applications in several European countries have also been rejected recently.
As a result of these investigations, Binance, the largest cryptocurrency exchange globally in terms of trading volume, has experienced significant declines in its market share. Additionally, many high-level executives at Binance have resigned in recent months.
Another blow has come to Binance from Brazil, which is currently facing a series of investigations. One committee affiliated with the Brazilian Congress has released a comprehensive report accusing Binance CEO and three local executives of fraud.
