Binance lawsuits continue
The world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange has faced a number of lawsuits in recent months, particularly from US regulators, for market manipulation and improper use of client funds. In one of them, Reuters claimed that Binance combined client funds with company revenues, which should have been held separately in the 2020 and 2021 periods.
In late March, Binance faced a CFTC lawsuit alleging market manipulation. As we quoted as Kriptokoin.com, the regulator reports that they have clear evidence.
In the latest developments, to which CEO CZ reacted, it was claimed that Binance was reducing its workforce on social media. CZ stated that the rumors were partially true, but not an anomalous one.
