About 13 charges were levied on Binance and its Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Changpeng \u2018CZ\u2019 Zhao. The cryptocurrency exchange allegedly operated illegally in the United States, mishandled customers deposits, misled regulators and investors and listed unregistered securities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cardano (ADA), Polygon (MATIC) and Solana (SOL) were some of the tokens listed as unregistered securities in this case. At first CZ claimed to not have seen the official complaint. However, the exchange later <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/binance-official-response-sec-lawsuit\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">responded<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to the regulator, stating that it was disappointed in the SEC but would definitely contest the allegations in court.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Binance\u2019s opinion, the U.S. regulator opted for enforcement and litigation instead of choosing a thoughtful, nuanced approach required by the dynamic and complex nature of the technology.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWhile we take the SEC\u2019s allegations seriously, they should not be the subject of an SEC enforcement action, let alone on an emergency basis. We intend to defend our platform vigorously,\u201d Binance explained.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2><strong>SEC Lawsuit Impacts Negatively on Binance<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At the time, the enforcement action impacted negatively on the broad crypto ecosystem.

The effect of this SEC lawsuit are yet to wear out as perceived in this Mastercard crypto card partnership termination.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Notably, the news comes seven months after the offering was launched in Brazil.
