Binance Shows Resilience Amid Regulatory Setback

According to a recent update from Reuters, Binance CEO Richard Teng, has revealed that the company is working closely with the authorities, including the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) to resolve the issues.

On April 18, Binance announced that it had secured a license from the Dubai regulators VARA to help expand its operations to the Middle East, targeting retail and institutional clients.

Members of the crypto market are eagerly waiting for these trading options to go live on the platform as the crypto market often responds positively to updates like these. While we wait, the general crypto market cap is currently down by 2.83% over the last 24 hours to $2.31 trillion according to data from CoinMarketCap, signifying the level of volatility in the market.
