The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is reportedly investigating Binance'S BNB token, which could be an unregistered security. If the cryptocurrency is found to be a security, it could put Binance in a similar position to Ripple Labs which has been in an ongoing lawsuit with the SEC over the sale of the XRP tokenu.

Binance told the news outlet: “it would not be appropriate for us to comment on our ongoing conversations with regulators, which include education, assistance, and voluntary responses to information requests.” However, the company stressed that it will “continue to meet all requirements set by regulators.”
