Binance in the newsThe US arm of the world’s largest crypto exchange by trading volume says the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) recent lawsuit could kill their business for good.
As noted by the online pubcalition the Daily Hodl, new court documents revealed the fact that if the SEC is able to freeze its assets, it will effectively put the firm out of business. More than that, it would no longer be able to fund any of its operations.
“If the Court does address the merits of the SEC’s motion, it should deny that motion. The SEC seeks unnecessary and unjustified relief. Far from requesting relief that is “carefully calibrated” to “maintain the status quo,” the SEC’s proposed remedies would effectively end BAM’s business.”
