US SEC On CZ Still Having Access To Binance US Assets<\/h2>\n

Recently, the Binance founder had resigned from the role of CEO as part of the settlement with the DOJ, which also included release from jail on a $175 million personal recognizance bond. CZ pleaded guilty to charges of defaulting in the form of operating an anti-money laundering system. Meanwhile, the US SEC is in the lookout<\/a> for proof that potentially shows CZ could continue to have a \u2018backdoor\u2019 access to Binance US assets, according to a Wall Street Journal report.<\/p>\n

In June 2023, the Commission filed a lawsuit against Binance alleging illegal operation of securities exchange, while at the same time investigating potential for a collapse similar to the November 2022 fallout of FTX. Earlier, CoinGape reported<\/a> expert comments that said the US SEC could have a fresh array of evidence against the exchange, while arguing in its own lawsuit.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Binance\u2019s legal debacle coincides with the growth in stock price of its top competitor, Coinbase<\/a>. The $COIN stock price reached around $121 on November 27, 2023, which is the new peak since as far as May 22, 2022.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What Next For Binance<\/h2>\n

Following CZ\u2019s pleading guilty and exit as CEO, Richard Teng, the newly appointed CEO, pledged<\/a> to enhanced regulatory compliance. This comes as a deviation from CZ\u2019s leadership stance, with Teng wishing to work closely with regulators around the world and build a reputation around trust.<\/p>\n
