Binance US Delists Crypto Token ‘out of an Abundance of Caution’ After SEC Says It’s a Security

Binance’s U.S. platform is delisting crypto token amp after the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) declared it a security. Another crypto exchange, Coinbase, disagreed with the regulator, arguing that the token is not a security.

Binance Delists AMP ‘out of an Abundance of Caution’


Binance’s U.S. exchange (Binance US) is taking action to ensure that crypto tokens the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has declared to be securities are not listed on its platform. The SEC recently said in a lawsuit against a former Coinbase product manager that 九种加密代币是证券。它们是 AMP、RLY、DDX、XYO、RGT、LCX、POWR、DFX 和 KROM。

Binance US explained:

In its suit, the SEC named nine digital assets that it alleges are securities. Of those nine tokens, only amp (AMP) is listed on the Binance.US platform.


“Out of an abundance of caution, we have decided to delist the AMP token from Binance.US, effective August 15, 2022,” the crypto exchange announced Monday.

Binance US detailed that on Aug. 15, AMP deposits on its platform will be closed at 9:00 p.m. EDT and the AMP/USD trading pair will be removed at 11:00 p.m. EDT. “All trade orders will be automatically removed after trading ceases for the trading pair,” the announcement states.

该交易所澄清说,在加密货币的分类更加明确之前,它正在采取这一步骤,并补充说,该加密货币可能会在未来某个时候恢复交易。

The price of AMP fell sharply following the delisting announcement by Binance US. At the time of writing, AMP is trading at $0.0081411, down 11% in the past 24 hours.





而 Binance US has taken a cautious approach to crypto tokens that may be deemed securities by the SEC, the Nasdaq-listed cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase has chosen to fight the securities regulator.

在对其前雇员提起诉讼后,Coinbase 发表了一篇博文,声明其未上市任何证券。该交易所首席法律官 Paul Grewal, :“Coinbase 并未在其平台上列出证券。故事结局。”该高管还批评了 SEC,表示:“SEC 没有就我们平台上的七项资产与我们进行对话,而是直接提起诉讼。”

上周,有报道称 SEC 可能正在调查 Coinbase 上市的加密证券。
