SEC 審查加密貨幣交易所 Binance 美國 — 主席 Gensler 強調“基本投資者保護”

Binance US Probed by SEC

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is reportedly probing the U.S. arm of the cryptocurrency exchange Binance (Binance 我們)。

The securities watchdog is examining the relationship between Binance US and two trading firms with ties to Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.

The two firms are Sigma Chain AG and Merit Peak Ltd. They act as market makers that trade cryptocurrencies on the Binance US exchange.

However, the SEC alleges that Binance US did not disclose to its customers the links between the exchange and the two trading firms, the people say, adding that the SEC has requested information about the two companies from Binance 我們。

On Wednesday, Fox Business interviewed SEC Chairman Gary Gensler about the Binance US news and the SEC’s efforts to regulate the crypto space. While the SEC chief did not specifically comment on the Binance US probe, he cited “basic investor protection” as the key driver for all SEC actions.

Chair Gensler detailed:

Most of the activity in this asset class, $2 trillion, is happening on centralized exchanges or lending platforms.

He proceeded to talk about the 執法行動 taken against cryptocurrency lender Blockfi. The company has agreed to pay $100 million to settle charges with the SEC and state regulators.

Gensler emphasized the importance of ensuring “basic investor protection — protection against fraud and manipulation.” He reiterated that many of the tokens on crypto exchange platforms may be securities.
