Binance exchange star is on the rise. Binance received a registration license to operate in Dubai after the CZ departure.
According to media reports, the regulatory license will enable the firm to have immunity against the regulatory persecution that the firm has been subjected to for the last two years. The biggest trading platform in terms of trading volume has finally completed the acquisition of the regulatory license in Dubai.
The firm is now a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) after CZ forfeited his voting power in the local entity. The matter was disclosed to Bloomberg in 18th April report by insiders. The VARA or Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority conditioned the firm for Zhao to let go of his voting power in Binance FZE.
Current CEO Richard Teng confirmed the acquisition of the registration license; he further stated that the condition for CZ to give up his voting power was based on speculation.
He claimed that the firm refrains from commenting on rumors circulating in mass media. However, the dealing with consumers is a confidential matter for the firm. Binance has marked the acquisition of a full regulatory license as a major win for the firm.
The firm noticed that the event signals the end of the long scrutiny period that followed the firm everywhere since the catastrophic collapse of the FTX exchange.
Binance signed a $4.3 billion settlement deal with US authorities and settle federal charges that alleged the firm of conducting Anti-Money Laundering violation and breaching the Bank Secrecy Act.
CZ pleaded guilty to one felony charge that postulated that the firm was unable to implement proper AML protocols. On account of these violations, CZ is also to attend a sentencing hearing on 30th April. He could potentially face 18 months behind bars.
The VARA officials seemingly wanted to distance themselves from CZ on account of his ongoing clash with US officials. These legal troubles forced Zhao to step down from his position as Binance CEO.
VARA also directed Zhao to cede his voting powers in Dubai FZE. Afterwards, Zhao eventually gave up his vote privileges. VARA adopted stringent outlook at product and services offerings from Binance FZE as per insiders.
