This marks the second round of job cuts this year for Binance.US, which is grappling with a growing list of legal and operational challenges.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<p>In June, the U.S. SEC leveled accusations against Binance Holdings, its CEO Changpeng Zhao, and Binance.US, alleging mishandling of customer funds, misleading investors and regulators, and violations of securities regulations. Zhao and the companies have strongly refuted these claims.<\/p>\n<p>Following the SEC\u2019s actions, customers of Binance.US encountered difficulties in depositing or withdrawing dollars. This happened as several banking partners started severing their ties with the platform. As a workaround, the company had to implement an alternative method for Binance.US users to convert dollars into cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<p>In March, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) also <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/us-cftc-sues-binance-cz-sued-for-regulatory-violations\/\">charged Binance and Zhao<\/a> with \u201cwillful evasion of federal law.\u201d Additionally, the U.S. Department of Justice is conducting an inquiry into Binance, although it has not yet accused the company of any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.72.1 --><\/p>\n<h3>Binance.US Declining Market Share<\/h3>\n<p>Binance.US has seen its share of the global market contract significantly, dropping from approximately 2.39% in April to just around 0.6%, as reported by Jacob Joseph, an analyst at CCData research. Moreover, the platform\u2019s monthly trading volume has dipped below levels recorded in early 2020.
